This study is recruiting. It focuses on depression and currently lists participation information in Brazil.
This study is looking at whether Auricular Acupuncture can help people with depression or anxiety. Participants receive Auricular Acupuncture or usual care and complete study visits and assessments. Some participants may receive usual care instead of the study treatment, and direct benefit is not guaranteed.
The official record suggests in-person participation through a university, with sites including Universidade do Sul de Santa Catarina in Palhoça. Participation appears to involve assessments along with scans or samples to help researchers understand patterns more clearly. The main fit is usually meeting the main study requirements, while common reasons not to take part include pregnancy or breastfeeding. The official record does not list a formal phase, which usually means this is focused more on feasibility, delivery, or support than a standard drug-development stage.
