Slide 40 of 49 Prevalence of Dementia * Comorbidities: HIV infection, Hepatitis C, Cerebrovascular disease, lifestyle factors Prevalence
41
Slide 41 of 49 Considerations Age and HIV impact cognition, but not synergistically (additive) – Nevertheless, older individuals are more likely to meet a threshold of important amounts of decline Older patients tend to be more symptomatic Age is not the most important determinant of cognition in HIV – The variation in age is as great as the variation across ages
42
Slide 42 of 49 Where do we go from here? Treatment options Antiretroviral treatment considerations Treatments for neurodegenerative disorders? Exercise Cognitive stimulation Treatment of morbidities Safety in the home/ advanced planning
43
Slide 43 of 49 Summary Cognitive impairment remains frequent despite cART cART does not control HIV-related contributions Antiretroviral therapy may contribute to cognitive impairment Suppression of plasma HIV RNA is essential in the treatment of cognitive impairment – Attention to CNS penetration effectiveness of ARVs is important in select (uncommon) circumstances
44
Slide 44 of 49 Summary The etiology of cognitive impairment is likely heterogeneous – Contributions from cerebrovascular disease – With age, possibly neurodegenerative disorders – Background comorbidity may play a role in the frequency of poor neuropsychological performance in some
