Effect of bupropion-SR on REM sleep: relationship to antidepressant response
Abstract
Rationale The effects of antidepressant (AD) drugs on sleep in depressed patients and their relationship to AD response have been investigated previously. However, newer AD agents, which appear to have different effects on sleep, have not been evaluated systematically for their usefulness in predicting treatment response. Objectives To examine the effect of bupropion sustained release (SR) (Wellbutrin SR) on sleep macroarchitecture, and to assess whether the observed electroencephalographic (EEG) sleep changes in response to a single dose of bupropion are associated with treatment response to the AD. Methods Twenty patients with unipolar major depressive disorder received EEG sleep assessments prior to treatment. Subjects were studied twice for 2 consecutive nights, with each 2-night session approximately 1 week apart. Baseline EEG sleep and the EEG sleep responses to placebo (baseline sleep) and a single dose of bupropion SR (150 mg, PO) were measured using a randomized, double-blind, crossover design. The participants then received open-label treatment with bupropion SR for about 8 weeks. Results No relationship was observed between baseline EEG sleep measures and response to treatment with bupropion. However, a statistically significant relationship was found between latency to the onset of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep following a single dose of bupropion and clinical response to treatment with bupropion. Responders showed an increase in REM latency following bupropion c…

In depressed patients, treatment response to bupropion was associated with significant REM suppression.
“(Ott et al., 2002) found no differences with regard to sleep measures between bupoprion (150400mg) and placebo, although treatment response was associated with significant REM suppression.”

In depressed patients, bupropion 150-400 mg did not differ from placebo on sleep measures.
“(Ott et al., 2002) found no differences with regard to sleep measures between bupoprion (150400mg) and placebo, although treatment response was associated with significant REM suppression.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
