1. In order to inventory different Event-Related Potentials (ERP) modifications in HIV-infection the authors have evaluated 23 HIV-positive subjects and 12 HIV-negative subjects. ERP were recorded during an auditory oddball task. 2. Electrophysiological results showed that the latency of the N100 component of the ERP was significantly increased in HIV-positive subjects compared to the HIV-negative subjects. The latency of the N200 component of the ERP showed a similar tendency which just failed to reach significance when considering HIV-positive subjects vs HIV negative subjects. This result was in agreement with the literature which reported increased latencies in HIV infection. 3. Considering all subjects the authors have observed a correlation between the amplitude of the P300 and the emotional deficit. This correlation was stronger in subjects who presented an emotional deficit and was independent of any other psychopathological symptom. 4. The use of ERP appeared to be a sensitive technique to detect subclinical manifestations in HIV asymptomatic subjects and therefore would help to identify subjects at higher risk for developing cognitive impairments.
