Target follow-up type
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
HIV+ cognitively impaired (HAND) - Participants will be assessed based on their performance on the neuropsychological test battery at study entry. HAND status will be diagnosed per FRASCATI research criteria and this will determine which study cohort they are allocated to. Participants will continue to receive their standard of care treatment during the study period.

HIV+ cognitively normal (no-HAND) - Participants will be assessed based on their performance on the neuropsychological test battery at study entry. HAND status will be diagnosed per FRASCATI research criteria and this will determine which study cohort they are allocated to. Participants will continue to receive their standard of care treatment during the study period.
