EFFICACY AND CLINICAL AND NEUROIMAGING BIOMARKERS OF RESPONSE OF TWO INTENSIVE AND SPACED TREATMENT PROTOCOLS OF THETA BURST MAGNETIC STIMULATION IN TREATMENT RESISTANT DEPRESSION

Introduction Resistant to treatment depression (RTD) is a prevalent disease that implies functional impairment and high resources consumption.Theta Burst Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TBS) in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is a novel therapy that has shown experimental efficacy and as an adjuvant strategy in RTD.The implementation of T

Healthcare workers (HCWs) faced a range of stressors during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, contributing to psychological stress.We use a psychological trauma flex 4 heartworm test framework to characterize the mental health burden for clinical and non-clinical healthcare worker occupations during the COVID-19 pandemic.The objective was to mea

In this study, the power absorption of a submerged piezoelectric wave energy converter (PWEC) device floating over a rippled seabed is investigated under the linear water wave theory.The boundary element method (BEM) is used to solve the physical problem analogs to the hydrodynamics of the PWEC device.The effect of different structural parameters s

The Collegium system was first made available in 2012 to support organizations conducting humanitarian or non-commercial telemedicine work in low resource settings.It provides the technical infrastructure necessary to establish a store-and-forward telemedicine service.During the subsequent 6 years a total of 46 networks were established, based on t
