Cortical sources of resting state electroencephalographic rhythms probe brain function in naïve HIV individuals

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) causes neurological, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms during the progression of the infection (Reger et al., 2002; Anthony and Bell 2008; Antinori et al., 2007). From an epidemiological point of view, subclinical neuropathy was reported in 10-40% of asymptomatic subjects with HIV and 53-100% in those with the AIDS (Chavanet et al., 1988; Gastaut et al., 1989). Also, 50-70% of subjects with HIV suffer from neurologic and the so-called HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HANDs) including deficits of episodic memory, attention, cognitive-motor, and executive functions such as planning and problem solving (Selnes, 2005).
