TLDR
A selective sensitivity of the different functional units of the somatosensory evoked potential to the aging process is suggested, suggesting a selectiveensitivity of the classical positive-negative primary response, association response, first late component and “V” potential.About:

Age-related variations in evoked potentials to auditory stimuli in normal human subjects
TL;DR: An aging process is relfected in the auditory evoked potential which is not the simple inverse of maturational processes.

Somatosensory evoked potentials. Diagnostic criteria and abnormalities in cerebral lesions.
TL;DR: SEP, judged by the present criteria, was shown to be useful as a complementary diagnostic aid in localizing the sites of lesions in sensory pathways and in evaluating sensory function, especially when used in combination with clinical symptomatology.

The coexistence of bradykinesia and chorea in Huntington's disease and its implications for theories of basal ganglia control of movement.
P. D. Thompson,Alfredo Berardelli,Jc Rothwell,Brian L. Day,Jpr Dick,R. Benecke,C. D. Marsden +6 more
TL;DR: Bradykinesia is shown to be an integral component of the motor disorder of Huntington's disease, in addition to the chorea, and is compatible with current theories of the role of the basal ganglia in the control of movement.

TL;DR: The relationship of reaction time and P3 latency of single trials was examined by the adaptive filter technique and there was no difference between the old and young subjects as both groups revealed signficant, positive P 3 latency-reaction time correlations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Age and sex differences in averaged evoked responses in a normal population, with observations on patients with gonadal dysgenesis
TL;DR: It is suggested that levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) or gonadal steroids cannot be the only determinants of the sex differences observed and the absence of the Y chromosome may be associated with the female AER pattern.

Recovery functions of somatosensory evoked responses in man
TL;DR: Recovery functions of various components of the cerebral response evoked by a brief shock to median nerve showed that only component 5 was affected by a conditioning click, indicating that this component is only partially “non-specific” to a given modality of sensory stimulation.

The form voltage distribution and physiological significance of the K-complex.
Martin Roth,John Shaw,Joy Green +2 more
TL;DR: Evidence is presented suggesting that the K-complex is specially adapted for responding to transient disturbances in the environment and there is evidence to suggest that it is the correlate of a crude perceptual process which tends to initiate arousal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of cerebral somatosensory evoked responses in normal man
TL;DR: The highly similar projection of 1 and 2 to posterior contralateral cortex supports the hypothesis that they reflect "primary" somatosensory activity, and it is proposed that 3 may be similar to evoked responses variously termed "association area", "irradiation", etc., in animals.

TL;DR: A comparison of responses from different brain areas as well as the degree of homogeneity of VERs at different age levels showed a gradually changing relationship with increasing age.
