چکیده

Investigations were undertaken to determine which particular components of the flash visual-evoked cortical potential (VECP) lateralize on monocular stimulation in human albinos. Our results demonstrate that only the major positive component shows clear lateralization. Statistical analysis revealed that the latency lateralization was significant (P less than 0.001) while the amplitude lateralization was not.

Comparison of visual evoked potential changes in patients with alzheimer, vascular dementia and minimal cognitive Impairment with healthy people: a case-control study

Background: Alzheimer dementia as the most common cause of dementia is a chronic, progressive, irreversible and incurable disease. The second most common cause of dementia after Alzheimer is vascular dementia. One of the systems involved in dementia is the visuospatial system and visual evoked potential (VEP) can be one of the diagnostic methods for this disease. Therefore, the present study ai...

Albinism in childhood: a flash VEP and ERG study.

Flash visual evoked potentials (F. VEPs) and electroretinograms (ERGs) were recorded in a total of 20 young children with albinism (age range 5 months to 11 years, mean 4 years). All recordings were made without sedation. There were 13 oculocutaneous cases (one with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome) and seven ocular albinos. Monocular flash stimulation commonly elicited an asymmetrical occipital VEP d...

Serial visual evoked potential recordings in Alzheimer's disease.

Primary presenile dementia slows the major positive component of the visual evoked potential to flash stimulation but does not affect the visual evoked potential to patterned stimulation. The progressive effect of Alzheimer's disease was followed in a 58 year old woman over three and a half years from the development of the earliest symptoms to complete mental incapacity. The pattern reversal v...

Intraoperative monitoring of flash visual evoked potential under general anesthesia

In neurosurgical procedures that may cause visual impairment in the intraoperative period, the monitoring of flash visual evoked potential (VEP) is clinically used to evaluate visual function. Patients are unconscious during surgery under general anesthesia, making flash VEP monitoring useful as it can objectively evaluate visual function. The flash stimulus input to the retina is transmitted t...

Comparison of the Wave Amplitude of Visually Evoked Potential in Amblyopic Eyes between Patients with Esotropia and Anisometropia and a Normal Group

Background: We compared the wave amplitude of visually evoked potential (VEP) between patients with esotropic and anisometropic amblyopic eyes and a normal group.Methods: The wave amplitude of VEP was documented in 2 groups of persons with amblyopia (15 with esotropia and 28 with anisometropia) and 1 group of individuals with normal visual acuity (n, 15). The amplitude of P100 was recorded mono...
