 | | The significant association between plasma levels of HIV-1 RNA and the presence of neurocognitive impairment recognized in the present study supported the hypothesis that the control of plasma viremia could be sufficient in less advanced HIV patients who are affected by mild neurocognitive disorders. |
 | | In the later stages of infection, multiple neuroactive drugs could be required to control the local viral replication, the main source of HIV virions in CSF, and to effectively influence the neurocognitive outcome. |
 | | In accordance with literature data, zidovudine, stavudine, lamivudine, abacavir, nevirapine, efavirenz, and indinavir satisfied this definition and were considered as neuroactive drugs for the present study purposes. |
