Previous studies have demonstrated rapid-onset anti-suicidal ideation effects of ketamine. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and duration of anti-suicidal thoughts following single- and repeated-dose ketamine administration. We retrieved published studies on ketamine for suicidal ideation (SI) from PubMed, OVID (MEDLINE), Web of Science, and Embase, spanning from inception to May 1,...

Growing evidence suggests that repeated-dose intravenous ketamine in patients with depression had rapid antianhedonic effects. However, a comparison of the antianhedonic effects of repeated-dose intravenous ketamine between younger adults and older depressed patients has not been examined. To the best of my knowledge, this study with a total of 135 patients with major depressive episodes (MDE)...

There has been increasing concern about the long-term impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as evidenced by anecdotal case reports of acute-onset parkinsonism and the polysomnographic feature of increased rapid eye movement sleep electromyographic activity. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and correlates of dream-enactment behaviours, a hallmark of rapid eye movement sleep...

Along with its rapid therapeutic benefits, ketamine induces transient experience of dissociation during administration. Given the suggested association between ketamine-induced dissociation and treatment response, understanding the neural correlates of dissociation would help to elucidate its therapeutic mechanism. The posteromedial cortex (PMC) has been reported to play a vital role in the...
