“MDMA induced hyperthermia: report of a fatality and review of current therapy”. 
Intensive Care Med. 1996 Sep;22(9):995-6.
Abstract
Ingestion of 3,4-methylene dioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), commonly known as 'Ecstasy', can produce toxicity that is characterised by hyperthermia, coagulopathy, rhabdomyolysis and renal failure. We report a fatality associated with MDMA ingestion and briefly review the current literature on MDMA-induced hyperthermia.
