Central nervous system and neurodevelopmental outcomes of HIV + and HIV exposed children: A mini review of recent findings and lessons learned from the field
Abstract
- There has been an increase in research looking at neurodevelopmental/neurologic outcomes of children living with HIV (Children LWHIV) and HIV exposed but uninfected children (HEU) during an era of ART. This Neurodevelopmental mini review presents recent research findings on the neurodevelopmental outcomes for children LWHIV and HEU children based on literature published since 2015. The research was conducted in diverse settings: both in resource rich settings such as the U.S and Europe; as well as resource limited international settings with a focus on Africa.
