Abstract:Evidence from animal research, postmortem analyses, and MRI investigations indicate substantial morphological alteration in brain structure as a function of HIV or cocaine dependence (CD). Although previous research on HIV+ active cocaine users suggests the presence of deleterious morphological effects in excess of either condition alone, a yet unexplored question is whether there is a similar deleterious interaction in HIV+ individuals with CD who are currently abstinent. To this end, the combinatorial effect… Show more
