N2  - OBJECTIVE: To investigate P300 and contingent negative variations (CNV) of patients with affective disorder and its clinical significance.  METHODS: 39 depressives, 22 maniacs and 33 normal controls were included in this study. Both P300 and CNV were recorded in every subject, using a nicolet spirit instrument.  RESULTS: Both depression and mania groups presented prolonged P300-P3b latency and decreased P300-P3 and CNV amplitudes compared with normal controls. Decreased P300 & CNV amplitudes were further related to the history of suicide behavior in the two patient groups.  CONCLUSION: The clinical significance of event-related potentials was confirmed in this study, while the biological correlates of suicide behavior need further and intensive study.<p /> <p>Language: zh</p>
