Cerebral effects of binge drinking: Respective influences of global alcohol intake and consumption pattern

Highlights ► Binge drinking leads to striking cerebral alterations, as indexed by event-related potentials. ► Young binge drinkers present early and global electrophysiological impairments, affecting low-level (perception and attention) as well as high-level (decision) cognitive stages. ► The specif...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights ► Binge drinking leads to striking cerebral alterations, as indexed by event-related potentials. ► Young binge drinkers present early and global electrophysiological impairments, affecting low-level (perception and attention) as well as high-level (decision) cognitive stages. ► The specific consumption pattern observed in binge drinking (i.e., alternating intense intoxications and withdrawal episodes) is particularly deleterious for the brain.
