Abstract:
Objective: Acute course of electroconvulsive therapy is effective in inducing remission from depression, but recurrence rate is unacceptably high following termination of electroconvulsive therapy despite continued pharmacotherapy. Continuation electroconvulsive therapy and maintenance electroconvulsive therapy have been studied for their efficacy in preventing relapse and recurrence of depression. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to examine the efficacy of continuation electroconvulsive therapy and maintenance electroconvulsive therapy in preventing relapse and recurrence of depression i

Abstract:
Electroconvulsive therapy is known to be effective in the treatment of mood disorders, more specifically for depression and mania. Although a large body of evidence confirms the efficacy of electroconvulsive therapy in the treatment of mania, few prospective studies have been done to assess its effectiveness in treatment-resistant manic episodes. These case reports describe the initial results of a study that is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy of Electroconvulsive therapy among treatment-resistant bipolar patients.

Abstract:
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is an effective, if somewhat controversial, treatment for a number of psychiatric disorders, particularly depression. Although use has declined, this is not due to lack of evidence to support the use of ECT, but because other treatments for psychiatric disorders, not always grounded in evidence, are being chosen. GPs are likely to have patients who have received ECT, or for whom ECT may well be considered following a referral to secondary care. This article considers the origins of ECT, the indications for use and side effects.

Abstract:
At present, only symptomatic therapy is available and effective therapeutic approaches to slow the disease process have yet to be developed. Previous studies have shown that electroconvulsive shock (ECS) induces the production of growth factors including BDNF and the molecular chaperones HSP40 and HSP70. Because ECS can stimulate the production of neuroprotective proteins, we determined whether ECS treatment could slow the progressive nature of the disease process and provide a therapeutic benefit in a mouse model of HD. ECS or sham treatment was administered to male N171-82Q Htt mutant mice.

We hypothesized that the mechanism of action of ECT in PD is similar to its proposed mechanism of action in depression, more specifically, that ECS in 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-lesioned rats will

Abstract:
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) originated in Italy in the 1930s and regained significance in the 1980s due to its efficacy in cases where psychotropic drugs were insufficient. Today, it’s a safe and effective treatment for major depression, mania, schizophrenia, and catatonia. Public misconceptions about ECT exist, leading to reluctance among patients and physicians. Advancements in technology have minimized cognitive side effects, making ECT less risky than pharmacotherapy, especially during pregnancy.

Physical signs of illness are sought, and tests and special examinations that narrow the probability to a specific illness are considered.
