Sex Differences in Slow-wave Electroencephalographic Activity (SWA) in Adolescent Depression
TLDR
The accumulation and dissipation of SWA was abnormal in depressed adolescents, but only in males, underscoring the need to develop sex-specific therapies to enhance and restore SWA in depressedolescents.
Slow-wave activity during non-REM sleep in men with schizophrenia and major depressive disorders
Effects of a 3-hour sleep delay on sleep homeostasis in alcohol dependent adults.
TLDR
Alcohol dependence is associated with impaired SWA regulation and a blunted response to a mild homeostatic sleep challenge in alcohol-dependent adults compared to healthy controls.
Sex-related differences in sleep slow wave activity in major depressive disorder: a high-density EEG investigation
TLDR
High-density electroencephalography was used to examine the topography of SWA across the cortex in MDD, as well as sex-related variation in SWA topography in the disorder to clarify how increased SWA in women with MDD is related to the pathophysiology of the disorder.
Examining the effects of sleep delay on depressed males and females and healthy controls
TLDR
Examination of the effects of a 3‐h sleep delay, which represents a mild sleep challenge, on slow wave activity in healthy controls and individuals with depression suggested that males with depression are at a greater risk for homeostatic dysregulation than females, and may require specialized intervention.
Sex and age differences in sleep macroarchitecture in childhood and adolescent depression.
TLDR
A differential developmental influence on sleep in early-onset depression that is heavily dependent on sex is suggested, in agreement with previous studies in depressed adults.
A preliminary investigation of the role of slow-wave activity in modulating waking EEG theta as a marker of sleep propensity in major depressive disorder.
Effects of slow-wave activity on mood disturbance in major depressive disorder
TLDR
Data demonstrate that in the first half of the night, individuals with MDD who have less SWA dissipation as a consequence of impaired SWA regulation have greater mood disturbance, and may suggest that appropriate homeostatic regulation of sleep is an important factor in the disorder.
Sleep homeostasis in alcohol-dependent, depressed and healthy control men
TLDR
Both SWA generation and its homeostatic regulation are impaired in men with either AD or MDD, suggesting that finding interventions that selectively improve these different components of sleep homeostasis should be a goal of treatment for AD and MDD.
Sleep Macroarchitecture in Depression: Sex Differences
TLDR
Sex differences were observed in the relationship between clinical course of depression and sleep and in dif- ferentiating patients form healthy controls, supporting a different pathophysiology of depression in men and women.

Temporal characteristics of delta activity during NREM sleep in depressed outpatients and healthy adults: group and sex effects.
TLDR
It was concluded that slow-wave sleep deficiencies may be characteristic of men, but not women, with major depressive disorder, and the influence of age on delta activity varied as a function of both psychiatric status and sex.

TLDR
The differential effects of ageing on polysomnographic and EEG spectral characteristics of sleep were explored in men and women between the ages of 20 and 40 and suggest that the sleep of men andWomen over age 20–40 may age differently.

TLDR
