•  Definition: “a paradoxical deterioration in clinical status attributable

to the recovery of the immune system during HAART.”

HIVCogni<veImpairment:cART-era

•  ProblemswithCPE:•  Categorical not ordinal •  Methodology not transparent:

•  Hard to independently validate •  Weighting for each criterion?

•  ARV-ARV interactions not considered •  No accounting for the effect of an impaired BBB •  Anatomy: CSF not “a liquid brain biopsy” •  Efficacy in brain cells not assessed specifically •  Toxicity (CNS/CVS) not considered

•  RandomisedcontroltrialhighCPEvslowCPE–  No neuropsychological benefit at 16 weeks

–  Higher detectable plasma HIV viral load in high CPE group (i.e. treatment failure)
