Journal ArticleDOI
Focused ultrasound modulates region-specific brain activity
Seung-Schik Yoo,Alexander Bystritsky,Jong-Hwan Lee,Jong-Hwan Lee,Yongzhi Zhang,Krisztina Fischer,Byoung-Kyong Min,Nathan McDannold,Alvaro Pascual-Leone,Ferenc A. Jolesz +9 more
TL;DR: The in vivo feasibility of using focused ultrasound (FUS) to transiently modulate the function of regional brain tissue in rabbits is demonstrated and it is anticipated that the use of this technology will have an impact on brain research and may offer novel therapeutic interventions in various neurological conditions and psychiatric disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delivery of evidence-based treatment for multiple anxiety disorders in primary care: a randomized controlled trial.
Peter Roy-Byrne,Michelle G. Craske,Greer Sullivan,Raphael D. Rose,Mark J. Edlund,Ariel J. Lang,Alexander Bystritsky,Stacy Shaw Welch,Denise A. Chavira,Daniela Golinelli,Laura Campbell-Sills,Cathy D. Sherbourne,Murray B. Stein +12 more
TL;DR: For patients with anxiety disorders treated in primary care clinics, CALM compared with UC resulted in greater improvement in anxiety symptoms, depression symptoms, functional disability, and quality of care during 18 months of follow-up.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of low-intensity focused ultrasound pulsation.
Alexander Bystritsky,Alex Korb,Pamela K. Douglas,Mark S. Cohen,Mark S. Cohen,William P. Melega,Amit P. Mulgaonkar,Antonio A. F. DeSalles,Byoung-Kyong Min,Seung-Schik Yoo +9 more
TL;DR: Over 50 years of research data on the use of focused ultrasound (FUS) in neuronal tissue and live brain are reviewed, and novel applications of this noninvasive neuromodulation method LIFUP are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Randomized Effectiveness Trial of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Medication for Primary Care Panic Disorder
Peter Roy-Byrne,Michelle G. Craske,Murray B. Stein,Greer Sullivan,Alexander Bystritsky,Wayne Katon,Daniela Golinelli,Cathy D. Sherbourne +7 more
TL;DR: Delivery of evidence-based CBT and medication using the collaborative care model and a CBT-naive, midlevel behavioral health specialist is feasible and significantly more effective than usual care for primary care panic disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estrogen Replacement and Response to Fluoxetine in a Multicenter Geriatric Depression Trial
Lon S. Schneider,Gary W. Small,S.H. Hamilton,Alexander Bystritsky,Charles B. Nemeroff,Barnett S. Meyers +5 more
TL;DR: Elderly depressed women outpatients entering a 6-week, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter trial of fluoxetine did not show benefit significantly greater than placebo-treated patients not on ERT, but ERT use should be considered as a factor in clinical trials in elderly women.
