Subcortical hyperintensity on magnetic resonance imaging: a comparison of normal and depressed elderly subjects.

Titrated moderately suprathreshold vs fixed high-dose right unilateral electroconvulsive therapy: acute antidepressant and cognitive effects.
TL;DR: The antidepressant efficacy and cognitive side effects of RUL ECT are dependent on the magnitude of the stimulus dose relative to the seizure threshold, and a dose-response relationship extends through at least 12 times the seizure thresholds.
