Finally, both the meta-analyses we conducted and the percentages reported in individual studies on topics we did not meta-analyse, show that different topics follow different patterns, i.e., one topic being addressed in ItAs does not mean another one will be addressed too, nor that its covera...

The fMRI studies assess three different metrics of brain activity: BOLD activation, connectivity, and entropy. Studies on BOLD activation analyse changes in the trajectory of BOLD timeseries with a rapidly-acting psychedelic, such as intravenously-administered psilocybin. Connectivity studies can examine ...

This makes it challenging for us to analyse sleep disorders and unipolar depression and may have led to an underestimation of the outcomes. Furthermore, considering that most of the participants in these included studies had unipolar depression, the discussion of this study focused on patients with...
