Ayahuasca Improves Self-perception of Speech Performance in Subjects With Social Anxiety Disorder: A Pilot, Proof-of-Concept, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.

A randomized controlled trial was conducted where 17 volunteers with social anxiety disorder were randomized to receive either 2 mL/kg ayahuasca or placebo. A public speaking test was performed and assessed using the Self-statement During Public Speaking Scale (SDPSS), and additional outcome measures included the visual analog mood scale, Bodily Symptoms Scale (BSS), Recognition of Emotions in Factial Expressions (REFE), as well as vitals and biochemical analysis. The effects of anxiety and REFE were assessed again at 7, 14 and 21 days following the treatment session. When compared to placebo, ayahuasca significantly improved the self-perception of speech performance and lead to an increase in somatic symptoms as assessed by the BSS.
