Abstract:
Objective To explore the characteristics of P300 of subjects with attention deficit/hyperactive disorder(ADHD).Methods 34 children with ADHD were selected as ADHD group and 32 healthy subjects were selected as the health control group.They were matched in age,gender,degree of education.The auditory Oddball paradigm was applied,the event-related long latency components (N2 and P3) from Cz and Pz were measured in each test.Results Compared with the health control group,at the Cz electrode,children with ADHD showed a significandy prolonged latency of target N2 [(277.2 ± 20.3) ms vs (259.0 ± 14.9) ms,t =3.70,P ＜ 0.01] and decreased amplitude of target P3[(4.1 ± 1.6) μμV vs (5.7 ±2.0) μμV,t =3.57,P＜ 0.01].At the Pz electrode,the patient showed a significantly prolonged latency [(342.4 ± 26.3) ms vs (324.6 ± 15.5) ms,t =3.33,P ＜ 0.01] and decreased amplitude of target P3 [(4.1 ± 1.9) μV vs (7.4 ± 2.2) μV,t =6.54,P ＜ 0.01],decreased amplitude of non-target P2 [(3.0±1.l)μμV vs (3.7 ±1.3) μV,t =2.30,P＜0.05].Conclusion This study provides direct evidence that ADHD subjects have abnormal indices of endogenous P300,which is suggested that P300 might be potentially objective indicator applied in evaluation of cognitive dysfunction in ADHD children.
