Objective: To determine the role of bupropion in treatment of sexual dysfunction.
Data Sources: Studies and case reports were identified through MEDLINE (1970-July 2005) using search terms bupropion, antidepressants, sexual function, and sexual dysfunction.
Data Synthesis: Bupropion has been shown to have a favorable effect on sexual dysfunction. Several reports and small, short-term trials have examined bupropion as an adjunct or substitute for other antidepressants in sexually dysfunctional patients. Use of bupropion has also been studied in nondepressed patients. Bupropion may be a promising medication for treating sexual dysfunction. However, specific dosing is unclear.
Conclusions: While the studies reviewed here demonstrated some benefit in using bupropion to treat sexual dysfunction, limitations exist. Future studies should be conducted using larger sample sizes.

Background: With globalization, oculoplastic surgeons must understand the intricate morphological nuances of the periocular region across ethnicities to ensure precise treatment and avoid facial disharmony or dysfunction. Direct comparisons in two-dimensional (2D)-based periocular morphology between studies can be challenging due to the limited number of parameters and complicated variations in equipment, environments, measurement personnel, and methods. Therefore, it is imperative to explore the detailed three-dimensional (3D) periocular morphological disparities between young Caucasian and Chinese populations.
