Binge drinking is an excessive pattern of alcohol use, highly prevalent in adolescents and young adults. Several studies have explored the cognitive impairments associated with binge drinking, and Carbia et al. (2018) recently proposed a systematic review of these impairments. Although this review offers an insightful and up-to-date synthesis of this research field, the authors concluded that binge drinking is not associated with attentional impairments. We argue that such conclusion is premature. We identified published studies not mentioned by Carbia et al. (2018), which documented attentional impairments in binge drinking. In particular, a differential exploration of attentional networks has suggested that binge drinkers not only exhibit impairments for the executive control of attention, but also for its alerting network. We thus recommend a better consideration of attention in future experimental and translational research agendas.
binge 饮酒是一种过度的饮酒模式，在青少年和年轻人中非常普遍。一些研究已经探讨了与 binge 饮酒相关的认知障碍，Carbia 等人（2018）最近对这些障碍进行了系统综述。尽管该综述对这一研究领域进行了富有洞察力和最新的综合分析，但作者得出结论认为 binge 饮酒与注意力障碍无关。我们认为这样的结论还为时过早。我们发现了 Carbia 等人（2018）未提及的已发表的研究，这些研究记录了 binge 饮酒者的注意力障碍。特别是，对注意力网络的差异化探索表明， binge 饮酒者不仅表现出对注意力执行控制的障碍，而且还表现出对其警觉网络的障碍。因此，我们建议在未来的实验和转化研究议程中更好地考虑注意力。
