Brain Alterations and Cognitive Deficits Induced by Alcohol Use Disorder

Résumé

Chronic alcohol use, either in the context of repeated binge drinking behavior or alcohol use disorder, induces brain and cognitive alterations. These brain and cognitive alterations can be reversible and a recovery, at least partial, is seen in general after weeks or months of abstinence. Cognitive deficits are highly frequent in patients with alcohol use disorder and are largely under-diagnosed and under-treated as for example for the Gayet-Wernicke encephalopathy that could be easily treated and or prevented (if suspected) by thiamine treatment. Cognitive deficits have an impact on the treatment and should be well identified and targeted in order to improve care of patients and increase the success rate in maintaining long term abstinence or reduced alcohol intake.
