Introduction: Data regarding the incidence of 12-month postoperative cognitive decline following regional or general anaesthesia in older patients undergoing hip fracture surgery remain observational. Compared with general anaesthesia, we hypothesised that regional anaesthesia would decrease the incidence of 12-month postoperative cognitive decline.

Methods: This is substudy of a multicentre randomised trial of regional anaesthesia with no sedation vs.

Introduction: Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) lead to decline in performance in activities of daily living (ADLs). Multiple questionnaires assess this construct among older adults. The objective of this study was to review existing literature studying psychometric properties of questionnaires assessing performance in ADLs of older adults living with MCI and AD specifically.

A longitudinal analysis of neurocognitive profiles in South African women with HIV.

AIDS Care

January 2025

South African Medical Research Council / Stellenbosch University Genomics of Brain Disorders Research Unit, Department of Psychiatry, Stellenbosch University, Cape Town, South Africa.

HIV and the consequences of HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) disproportionally affect South African women. Longitudinal neurocognitive data on women with HIV are limited. We tracked longitudinal neurocognitive profiles of South African women with HIV (baseline = 140) compared to women without HIV (baseline = 156).

Background: Approximately half of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients experience HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND); however, the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying HAND remain unclear. This study aimed to evaluate changes in functional brain activity patterns during the early stages of HIV infection by comparing local and global indicators using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI).

Methods: A total of 165 people living with HIV (PLWH) but without neurocognitive disorders (PWND), 173 patients with asymptomatic neurocognitive impairment (ANI), and 100 matched healthy controls (HCs) were included in the study.

Charles Bonnet syndrome (CBS) is a clinical condition in which patients with visual impairment experience visual hallucinations (VH) in the presence of clear consciousness. It typically occurs in elderly people and confuses clinicians with multiple differential diagnoses due to VH, which can be present in a variety of clinical conditions ranging from psychosis to neurocognitive disorders (eg, neurocognitive disorder with Lewy bodies). In the latter, the concomitant presence of cognitive decline and parkinsonism aids the diagnosis.
