Abstract

Antecedentes. El consumo elevado de alcohol por parte de jóvenes durante el fin de semana se está convirtiendo en un problema social y familiar importante pero también en un problema de salud considerable. El consumo abusivo ocasiona daños en el cerebro pero con diferente distribución, ya que la corteza prefrontal (CP) es una de las regiones que resulta más afectada. Objetivos. Hay numerosos estudios sobre los efectos del consumo crónico de alcohol. Nuestro objetivo es determinar los déficits neuropsicológicos en la actividad prefrontal ocasionados por el consumo abusivo de alcohol de manera intermitente en adolescentes. Método. Se realizó una evaluación neuropsicológica a los sujetos para valorar su rendimiento en diversas tareas que implican a la CP. Participaron 62 sujetos (edad media 18.821.099) distribuidos en tres grupos: 1) Jóvenes que consumían alcohol de manera abusiva durante los fines de semana (ALE); 2) Jóvenes que consumían más moderadamente durante los fines de semana (ALM); y 3) Jóvenes que no consumían alcohol (CTR). Resultados y Conclusiones. Los resultados indican que el consumo abusivo intermitente de alcohol por parte de jóvenes, tanto de manera elevada como moderada, provoca un peor rendimiento en tareas neuropsicológicas como Dígitos, Corsi o Stroop, las cuales dependen de un correcto funcionamiento de la CP. Nuestros resultados apoyan la idea de que este patrón de consumo provoca un deterioro neurocognitivo y neuroconductual similar en muchos aspectos al observado en bebedores crónicos. Además, el consumo abusivo de fin de semana por parte de adolescentes y jóvenes incrementa el riesgo de desarrollar dependencia alcohólica y otras patologías en etapas posteriores de la vida.

  • University students are in a particularly important period of neurodevelopment corresponding to the end of prefrontal lobe maturation.

    “Los estudiantes universitarios se encuentran además en un momento especialmente importante del neurodesarrollo, que corresponde al final de la maduración del lóbulo prefrontal (García-Moreno, Expósito, Sanhueza y Angulo, 2008), que tiene lugar entre el final de la adolescencia y el inicio de la edad adulta (Blakemore y Choudhury, 2006; Casey, Giedd y Thomas, 2000), etapa caracterizada por el”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
