摘要

Background

Behcet disease (BD) patients process auditory information differently. Cognitive impairment has been found abundantly in BD patients.

Objective

To assess cognitive functions and central auditory processing (CAP) in BD adult patients.

Subjects and methods

Thirty-four adult BD patients participated with 34 age and gender matched normal individuals. All subjects were submitted to full history taking, basic audiological evaluation, Speech in Noise Test (SPIN), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and electrophysiological event-related potentials P300.

Results

The BD patients group had lower speech discrimination in noise scores, lower MMSE scores, longer P300 latencies, and decreased P300 amplitudes when compared to controls. Significant correlations were observed between MMSE, SPIN scores, P300 latency, amplitude, and the BDCAF scores.

Conclusions

Most BD patients have poor central auditory processing skills and poor cognition. The findings of the present study reveal the stagnating effect of BD on cognition and the CAP ability.
