HIV Neuropathogenesis

  • Conference paper
HIV-Infekt

Abstract

Human Immunodeficiency Virus type I (HIV-i) infects the brain and frequently causes dementia and other neurologic disorders in patients with AIDS [reviewed in 31, 39, 48]. Until recently, HIV-1-associated dementia and related cognitive and motor disorders occurred in up to 10–20% of AIDS patients. However, the frequency of these disorders has declined to approximately 5% of AIDS patients due to the use of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Other HIV-i-related neurologic disorders include peripheral neuropathies, myelopathies, and aseptic meningitis. Neurologic disorders in AIDS patients are also caused by opportunistic infections and primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma [39, 48].
