: Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are aggressive cancers that show increasing response to novel targeted-therapies and immune-checkpoint-inhibitors. Despite anecdotal reports of cardiovascular adverse events (AEs) and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) potentially hindering their utility, the true cardiotoxic profile of these novel-therapies in STS has been largely understudied. : We assessed the incidence and severity of AEs and MACE of contemporary FDA-approved targeted and immune-based therapies for STS, using data from landmark clinical trials supporting FDA-approval.

Introduction: Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a highly effective treatment for refractory depression, but it may also cause cognitive side effects. Despite decades of use, the mechanisms by which ECT exerts both its antidepressant and cognitive effects are still poorly understood, with the latter substantially limiting referral and adherence to therapy. ECT induces changes in correlated neural activity-functional connectivity-across various brain networks, which may underlie both its clinical efficacy and associated cognitive side effects.

Background: Although clinical trials involving psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy have not observed short-term increases in the risk of death, limited data exist on mortality associated with hallucinogen use outside of controlled trial settings. We sought to determine whether people with an emergency department visit or hospital admission involving hallucinogen use were at increased risk of all-cause death compared with the general population and with people with acute care presentations involving other substances.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using linked health administrative data on all people aged 15 years and older living in Ontario, Canada, from 2006 to 2022.
