  • Title: Evoked potentials in chronic n-hexane intoxication.
    Author: Huang CC, Chu NS.
    Journal: Clin Electroencephalogr; 1989 Jul; 20(3):162-8. PubMed ID: 2752587.
    Abstract:
    Somatosensory, brainstem auditory and pattern-reversal visual evoked potentials (SEP, BAEP and PVEP) were studied in 5 patients with n-hexane polyneuropathy to determine if the CNS was affected. In SEPs, the median central conduction (N13-to-N20) was normal but the tibial central conduction (N22-to-P40) was delayed. The central conduction time (I-to-V interval) of the BAEP was also prolonged. However, the P100 latency of the PVEP was normal. The present data indicate that the spinal cord and the brainstem are primarily affected in chronic n-hexane intoxication.
