Scientists probe hidden link between HIV and teen brain fog

NCT ID NCT07165639

Summary

This study aims to understand if ongoing inflammation in the body is connected to thinking and memory problems in teenagers living with HIV in Eswatini. Researchers will compare 50 HIV-positive teens with 30 HIV-negative teens, testing their brain function and measuring inflammation markers in their blood. The goal is to gather knowledge that could one day help identify teens at risk for cognitive issues and guide future care.
