										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The study focuses on individuals with <b>Alcohol use disorder</b> who also experience <b>depressive symptoms</b>. The investigational medication is <b>psilocybin</b>, a compound taken in capsule form by mouth.</p>
<p>The aim is to compare the effect of two larger doses given three weeks apart with two smaller doses given on the same schedule, to see which approach better prevents a return to heavy drinking after a period of detoxification. Participants will receive the assigned capsules, attend regular check‑in visits, and record their drinking using a calendar method that helps recall daily alcohol use.</p>
<p>During the six‑month follow‑up, researchers will note the first day a participant drinks a large amount (defined as at least 60 g of alcohol) and will collect information on mood, anxiety, and overall quality of life at several points. Blood samples will also be taken at the start and near the end of the study to monitor safety.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This clinical trial is focused on studying <i>Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)</i> in young adults. The study will explore the effects of a treatment using a nasal spray called <i>Syntocinon</i>, which contains the active substance <i>oxytocin</i>. Oxytocin is a naturally occurring hormone that is sometimes used in medical treatments. The trial will compare the effects of oxytocin to a placebo to see if it can increase prosocial behavior, which means actions that benefit others, in individuals with high alcohol use.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to understand if oxytocin can help improve social interactions in young adults who have high alcohol consumption. Participants will receive either the oxytocin nasal spray or a placebo during the study. The study will involve two visits where participants will be asked to complete tasks that measure their social behavior, impulsivity, emotion recognition, social learning, and alcohol craving. These tasks will help researchers understand the effects of the treatment on different aspects of behavior and emotions.</p>
<p>The study is designed to be completed over a short period, with participants attending two sessions. During these sessions, they will be monitored and asked to perform various tasks to assess changes in their behavior and emotional responses. The results of this study could provide valuable insights into new ways to support individuals with <i>Alcohol Use Disorder</i> in improving their social interactions and managing their alcohol use.</p>
