the claim

Infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is associated with injury of the central nervous system and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders.

Is it true that infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is associated with injury of the central nervous system and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders?

Yes. Infection with HIV is well established to cause central nervous system injury, leading to persistent neuroinflammation, brain damage, and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) even in the era of antiretroviral therapy.

Verdict: SUPPORTED · 4 sources for, 0 against · Last checked

The analysis

Papers 0, 1, 2, and 3 all explicitly document and discuss central nervous system injury and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) linked to HIV infection. None of the papers refute this claim.
