People living with HIV (PLWH) residing in high-income countries (HICs) are, in theory, well positioned to benefit from clinical care strategies that predict optimal neurocognitive and neuropsychiatric outcomes. However, there is substantial inter-individual variability in access to clinical care, prevalence of co-occurring risk factors, and comorbid health conditions that represent barriers to achieving the full potential of antiretroviral therapy (ART). Complex interactions between these variables translate into heterogeneity in HIV clinical phenotypes, including abnormalities in brain structure and function.

Background: Frailty is an important clinical concern for the aging population of people living with HIV (PLWH). The objective of this study was to identify the combination of risk features that distinguish frail from nonfrail individuals.

Setting: Machine learning analysis of highly dimensional risk features was performed on a clinical cohort of PLWH.

Little is known about the contribution of white matter integrity to inhibitory cognitive control, particularly in healthy aging. The present study examines the correspondence between white matter fiber bundle length and behavioral inhibition in 37 community-dwelling older adults (aged 51-78 years). Participants underwent neuroimaging with 3 Tesla MRI, and completed a behavioral test of inhibition (i.
