Information parity increases on functional brain networks under influence of a psychedelic substance

This re-analysis (n=7) found that ingesting ayahuasca (100-120ml) led to an increase in the average information parity in the brain networks of individuals, particularly in the limbic system and frontal cortex regions. By comparing resting-state functional brain networks of individuals before and after ingesting ayahuasca, the study utilized complex network theory and calculated pairwise information parity to quantify functional, statistical symmetries between brain region connectivity.

Low dose ketamine reduces pain perception and blood pressure, but not muscle sympathetic nerve activity, responses during a cold pressor test

In a randomised, crossover, placebo‑controlled study of healthy adults, a single low dose (20 mg) of ketamine reduced pain perception and attenuated mean blood pressure responses to a cold pressor test but did not change muscle sympathetic nerve activity burst frequency. This dissociation suggests ketamine lowers pressor responses via mechanisms other than suppression of MSNA, informing clinical risk–benefit considerations.
