  2. Epidemiology
    1. Common complication in late AIDS
  3. Pathophysiology
    1. Spectrum from subtle deficits to HIV-Associated Dementia
    2. Higher severity (including Dementia) with decreasing CD4 Counts
    3. Involves three neurologic domains
      1. Cognitive (memory, concentration, planning, comprehension)
      2. Behavioral (apathy, depression, Agitation)
      3. Motor (Incoordination, unsteady gait, Tremor)
  4. Signs
    1. Early
      1. Impaired concentration
      2. Forgetfulness
      3. Slowed cognitive function
    2. Late
      1. Impaired rapid movements
      2. Hyperreflexia
      3. Release reflexes
      4. Weakness
      5. Ataxia
      6. Spasticity

  7. Labs: CSF Exam
    1. Mildly elevated Protein
    2. Mild Pleocytosis, predominance of mononuclear cells
  8. Evaluation
    1. Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)

    2. Neuropsychiatric testing
  9. Management
    1. Antiretroviral drugs
      1. May improve neuropsychiatric performance
      2. May alleviate symptoms
  10. Complications
    1. Poor compliance with Antiretroviral therapy (with risk of resistance)
    2. Decreased functional capacity

AIDS Dementia Complex (C0001849)

Definition (CSP) neurological complications characterized by abnormalities in cognition, motor performance, and behavior due to HIV infection.
Definition (MSH) A neurologic condition associated with the ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCY SYNDROME and characterized by impaired concentration and memory, slowness of hand movements, ATAXIA, incontinence, apathy, and gait difficulties associated with HIV-1 viral infection of the central nervous system. Pathologic examination of the brain reveals white matter rarefaction, perivascular infiltrates of lymphocytes, foamy macrophages, and multinucleated giant cells. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp760-1; N Engl J Med, 1995 Apr 6;332(14):934-40)
