Summary

This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effectiveness of Resonance-Based Chinese Five-Element Music Intervention (RFEMI) as an adjunct to pharmacotherapy in male inpatients with depressive disorders. Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine Five-Element tone theory and resonance-informed acoustic delivery, RFEMI will be compared with conventional music intervention plus pharmacotherapy and pharmacotherapy alone over a four-week intervention period. The study will assess changes in depressive and anxiety symptoms, TCM syndrome characteristics, neuroendocrine biomarkers, cerebral oxygenation, and autonomic nervous system regulation.
