“…AIDS is an increasingly important cause of secondary mania [44]. When the illness is advanced and the CD4 counts are less than 200, mania generally accompanies symptoms of dementia [45,46]. Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and other prion diseases are additional infectious causes of mania [47,48].…”

Neurologic disorders can produce "secondary" mania. Clinicians must distinguish secondary mania from primary, idiopathic manic-depressive illness (MBI). In addition to medical and drug-induced causes of secondary mania, neurologic causes usually develop in older patients who may lack a strong family history of MDI. Neurologic causes of mania include focal strokes in the right basotemporal or inferofrontal region, strokes or tumors in the perihypothalamic region, Huntington's disease and other movement disorders, multiple sclerosis and other white matter diseases, head trauma, infections such as neurosyphilis and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, and frontotemporal dementia. Patients with new-onset mania require an evaluation that includes a thorough history, a neurologic examination, neuroimaging, and other selected tests. The management of patients with neurologic mania involving correcting the underlying disorder when possible and the judicious use of drugs such as the anticonvulsant medications.

“…Depression in HIV-infected individuals has been found to range from 15% to 40% (Brown et al, 1992;Treisman et al, 1998;Atkinson et al, 1988), a proportional prevalence significantly higher than that in general population (Blazer et al, 1994;Kessler et al, 1994). Depression may alter the course of HIV infection by impairing immune function or influencing behavior.…”

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is associated with psychiatric complications, including cognitive impairment, affective disorders, and psychosis. These psychiatric complications impair quality of life, affect disease prognosis, and impede treatment by compromising medication adherence. They also increase the likelihood of HIV transmission, either directly or via their high prevalence rate among drug abusers. In this article, the authors provide a brief overview of the most common psychiatric complications associated with HIV infection and discuss the role of dopamine as a link between psychiatric manifestations and the progression of immunodeficiency infection.

“…In der Tat Die Unterscheidung zwischen HIV-induzierten depressiven Zustandsbildern und "primären" Depressionen auf der Basis einer psychopathologischen Analytik ist schier unmöglich. Weiters besteht bei der HIV-Erkrankung infolge der möglichen Affektion subkortikaler Hirnareale ein gleitendes Spektrum von melancholischem Erscheinungsbild, dementiellem Syndrom und motorischen Auffälligkeiten, so dass die HIV-induzierte Depression gegenüber der HIV-assoziierten Demenz mit Begleitdepression nur schwer abzugrenzen ist [59,60]. Einzelne der bei HIV-Patienten häufig applizierten Medikamente bedingen pharmakogene Depressionen (Tabelle 5).…”

Since the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) was first recognized in 1981, more than 25 million individuals have died from complications of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in 1995 has resulted in a significantly decreased incidence rate of AIDS in the developed world. As HAART led to considerable improvements in survival for patients with HIV infection, HIV-neurotropically associated neuropsychiatric disorders have become an increasingly important challenge for clinical medicine. This article gives an overview of epidemiology, clinical features, diagnosis, and therapy of HIV-induced cognitive-motor impairments including HIV-associated dementia complex, organic mood disorders and psychosis.
