HIV-1 Proviral DNA Load Across Neuroanatomic Regions of Individuals With Evidence for HIV-1-Associated Dementia

1 Nov 1997

Abstract excerpt

A definitive relation between HIV-1 load and the clinical diagnosis of HIV-1-associated dementia (HAD) has not yet been established. Knowledge of the neuroanatomic distribution of HIV-1 load in the brain of individuals with HAD and HIV-1 encephalitis may facilitate elucidation of this relation. Nine individuals with AIDS were analyzed postmortem by three independent methods with each assessment performed blinded...
