Abstract:
The present paper is to investigate the variation characteristics and clinical application of event related potentials (ERPs) in patients with bipolar disorder. A total of 70 patients with bipolar disorder, with 39 patients in manic phase and 31 patients in depressive phase, and 50 health volunteers were recruited in the case-control study. The ERPs, such as P300, MMN, CNV, P50, were recorded by the Nihon Kohden evoked potential instrument. Compared with the healthy volunteers' latency in the control group, the latency of MMN, CNV, N2, P3a, P3b was longer in the manic phase group; the latency of MMN, CNV, P3a and P3b were longer and the amplitude of CNV was lower in the depressive phase group. The S2/S1 value of P50 obviously increased among the manic phase patients. With manic phase or depression phase of bipolar disorder, the variation characteristics of ERPs were different. The features of ERP reflect the cognitive dysfunction and sensory gating impairment of patient's brain. The results provide neural electrophysiological basis for clinical diagnosis and therapy of bipolar disorder.
