Cerebral white matter integrity during primary HIV infection

OBJECTIVE:Inflammation and infection within the central nervous system is initiated during primary HIV infection (PHI), but the association of these processes with the integrity of brain white matter during PHI is unknown. DESIGN:We used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in this prospective cross-secti...

Zusammenfassung:OBJECTIVE:Inflammation and infection within the central nervous system is initiated during primary HIV infection (PHI), but the association of these processes with the integrity of brain white matter during PHI is unknown. DESIGN:We used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in this prospective cross-sectional neuroimaging study to determine the extent of white matter involvement in early HIV infection. METHODS:Antiretroviral-naive PHI (defined as
