Brain stem auditory evoked responses in chronic alcoholics.
Brain stem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) were performed on 25 alcoholic patients with Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, 56 alcoholic patients without Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, 24 of whom had cerebellar ataxia, and 37 control subjects. Abnormal BAERs were found in 48% of patients with Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, in 25% of alcoholic patients without Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome but with cerebel...
متن کاملVisual evoked responses in chronic alcoholics.
Visual evoked responses (VERs) were recorded on 52 chronic alcoholics patients without Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, 22 of whom had cerebellar ataxia, and eight chronic alcoholics with Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome. Abnormal VERs were found in 23% of patients without and 37% of patients with Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome. The main VER abnormalities of all the alcoholic groups were prolonged latency ...
متن کاملComputed tomographic correlates of auditory brainstem responses in alcoholics.
A previous study has shown a high incidence of abnormal auditory brainstem responses in alcoholics, particularly when cerebral and/or cerebellar atrophy was present in CT scans. To correlate the electrophysiological findings with definable morphological alterations, quantitative measurements of the brainstem structures in CT scans were made. To determine the relative size of the brainstem, the ...

متن کاملAuditory P3 in female alcoholics.
BACKGROUND The P3 (P300) has been considered to be a phenotypical marker of the risk for alcoholism. Although reductions in visual P3 in male and female alcoholics have been replicated, studies of auditory target P3 have been inconsistent. Our objective was to study the magnitude of auditory P3 reduction in female alcoholics and to establish the association between P3 reduction and alcoholism w...
