Participant Flow

Individuals diagnosed with acute HIV in clinical sites within 30 days of enrollment and at least 18 years of age were enrolled. Acute HIV defined as: i) negative EIA and positive NAT; ii) positive EIA and positive NAT with negative/indeterminate western blot (WB); or iii) positive EIA, positive WB and EIA negative documentation in prior 30 days.

Timeframe: Week 2 or 4

Population: participants who underwent neurocognitive assessment at week 2 or 4

Neuropsychological performance was assessed at Week 2 or 4, Week 24 and Week 48 in the following measures: Premorbid/language (Wide Range Achievement Test 4 -Reading Subtest), Learning (HVLT-R, Hopkins Verbal Learning Test-Revised), Memory (HVLT-R), Speed of Processing (Trailmaking A (Army Individual Test Battery, 1944), 1974, Stroop color, Attention (WAIS-III Symbol Search; Stroop word, Fine motor, Executive (Trailmaking B, Stroop interference, Letter, Category Fluency. An overall summary score was created by averaging all tests. Participants also completed the self-reported functional status Patient's Assessment of Own Functioning Inventory (PAOFI) and the Activities of Daily Living Scale (ADLS). Best available demographically corrected normative data were utilized to create z scores. A negative z score denotes below-average performance relative to a US normative comparison population. A higher z score is a better outcome.
