dc.description.abstractObjectives. To investigate in a descriptive manner the P300 component of the event-related potential (ERP), which is related to aspects of cognitive processing, in patients with premature ejaculation (PE) to determine whether there is a cognitive alteration in this condition. Recent studies with short latency evoked potentials such as cortical somatosensory evoked potentials have indicated that afferent sensory inputs from the genital area to the nervous system are increased in PE, However, the cortical neural process of ejaculation has remained poorly understood. Methods. We performed ERPs in 20 patients with PE and in 20 age-matched healthy subjects. ERPs were evoked by an auditory oddball paradigm consisting of 150 tone bursts (80% 1 kHz; 20% 2 kHz). The latencies of the N200 and the P300 waves and the amplitude of the P300 wave were measured. Results. The mean latencies of the N200 and P300 waves were significantly longer in the patients with PE than in the controls (P<0.04 and <0.03, respectively). No significant difference was found in the P300 amplitude between the controls and patients (P>0.05). Conclusions. These data indicate that the greater cortical representation of sensory stimuli from the genital areas that has been shown with somatosensory evoked potential studies might be related to a cognitive/neurobehavioral dysfunction. The dysfunction involves an increased time to evaluate and categorize the stimuli in the central nervous system, with no change in the quality of cognition and neural disinhibition by the prefrontal cortex to early sensory processing in subcortical or primary cortical regions, which are cognitive neural processes underlying ERP generation.
