  • Food Insecurity and Cognitive Performance Among Young People Living With and Without HIV

    Open AccessSeth Frndak, Nicole Dear et al.ARTICLEAIDS and Behavior2026

    Cognitive development in young adulthood among people living with HIV (PLWH) is not well understood, especially in the context of food insecurity (FI). Nutrient-based interventions may have unique cognitive benefits dependent on age and HIV status. Our analysis included participants enrolled in the African Cohort Study (AFRICOS). AFRICOS enrolls PLWH and without HIV (PLWoH) across 12 PEPFAR-supported facilities in Kenya, Nigeria, Tanzania, and Ug…

  • Individual Differences in CD4/CD8 T-Cell Ratio Trajectories and Associated Risk Profiles Modeled From Acute HIV Infection

    Open AccessRobert Paul, Kyu Cho et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2022

    OBJECTIVE: We examined individual differences in CD4/CD8 T-cell ratio trajectories and associated risk profiles from acute HIV infection (AHI) through 144 weeks of antiretroviral therapy (ART) using a data-driven approach. METHODS: A total of 483 AHI participants began ART during Fiebig I-V and completed follow-up evaluations for 144 weeks. CD4+, CD8+, and CD4/CD8 T-cell ratio trajectories were defined followed by analyses to identify associated …

  • Psychiatric symptom burden in older people living with HIV with and without cognitive impairment

    Benedetta Milanini, Stephanie Catella et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2017

    Psychiatric comorbidities are common in people living with HIV (PLWH) and adversely affect life satisfaction, treatment adherence and disease progression. There are few data to inform the burden of psychiatric symptoms in older PLWH, a rapidly growing demographic in the U.S. We performed a cross-sectional analysis to understand the degree to which symptom burden was associated with cognitive disorders in PLWH over age 60. Participants completed a…

  • Neurodevelopmental outcomes in HIV-exposed-uninfected children versus those not exposed to HIV

    Stephen J Kerr, Thanyawee Puthanakit et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2014

    Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-negative children born to HIV-infected mothers may exhibit differences in neurodevelopment (ND) compared to age- and gender-matched controls whose lives have not been affected by HIV. This could occur due to exposure to HIV and antiretroviral agents in utero and perinatally, or differences in the environment in which they grow up. This study assessed neurodevelopmental outcomes in HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) an…

  • HIV and Aging

    Kevin P High, Mark Brennan-Ing et al.ARTICLEJAIDS Journal of Acquired Immune…2012

    HIV risk behaviors, susceptibility to HIV acquisition, progression of disease after infection, and response to antiretroviral therapy all vary by age. In those living with HIV, current effective treatment has increased the median life expectancy to >70 years of age. Biologic, medical, individual, social, and societal issues change as one ages with HIV infection, but there has been only a small amount of research in this field. Therefore, the Offi…

  • Updated research nosology for HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders

    Open AccessAndrea Antinori, Gabriele Arendt et al.ARTICLENeurology2007

    In 1991, the AIDS Task Force of the American Academy of Neurology published nomenclature and research case definitions to guide the diagnosis of neurologic manifestations of HIV-1 infection. Now, 16 years later, the National Institute of Mental Health and the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Stroke have charged a working group to critically review the adequacy and utility of these definitional criteria and to identify aspects that …
