OBJECTIVES: Contrary to event-related potential (ERP) components N1, N2 and P3, slow ERPs have rarely been used in assessing cerebral dysfunction in mental disorders. Focussing on slow waves (SWs) and on patients with mild cerebral dysfunction, we recorded ERPs in alcoholics using a dual task design. METHODS: ERPs to auditory probes presented either 1s before the warning or 1s before the imperative stimulus of a visual contingent negative variation (CNV) paradigm were recorded from 33 scalp electrodes in 27 alcoholics following detoxification and 12 healthy controls. Independent component analysis (ICA) was used to separate potentially overlapping spatial components. RESULTS: In alcoholics compared to controls, probe ERPs showed increased N2, decreased P3 and increased negative SWs of two types appearing pre- and post-P3, respectively. Both negative SWs significantly correlated with neuropsychological indices reflecting verbal intelligence and memory functions. The increase in probe-evoked N1 and P3 potentials during CNV, putatively associated with enhanced cortical excitability, significantly correlated with clinical features of protracted alcohol withdrawal syndrome in alcoholics. CONCLUSIONS: Our experimental approach revealed two types of negative SWs which strongly correlated with neuropsychological deficits of mildly impaired patients. It is suggested that our methods might enhance diagnostic efficiency of ERPs. An electrophysiological measure of protracted alcohol withdrawal might be useful for managing central nervous system dysfunction in alcoholics.
