Brain HIV RNA and to a lesser extent HIV DNA are correlated with worse NP performance in the 6 months before death. Linkage occurs primarily in patients with HIVE and MGNE, and these patients could obtain added NP improvement by further reducing brain HIV while on HAART. Patients not in those groups are less certain to obtain added NP benefit.
