Association between early improvement in symptom clusters (\u2a7e20% improvement from baseline at week 2) and symptomatic and functional remission (17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression total score \u2a7d7; Sheehan Disability Scale score &lt;7) at week 8 was analyzed using logistic regression.
