Abstract
The world's sustained commitment to the HIV/AIDS response and to reaching the 2030 Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of "ending AIDS" as a public health issue is indicated by the ambitious 95-95-95 targets for all relevant populations. Neurological conditions of AIDS (neuroAIDS) are the most significant and severe central nervous system complication associated with HIV infection in which viral antigens can enter in the brain by breaching the blood brain barrier and cause dementia, neuroinflammation and encephalopathy. The prevalence of neuroAIDS is 10-50% in people with advanced HIV disease, whereas 5-25% in people on ART. Currently, MRI, CT and other tools are used to diagnose the neuroAIDS/ HIV-associated dementia and antiretroviral therapy is widely used to treat the neuroAIDS. In spite of many advanced tools and pathogenesis of neuroAIDS, developing therapeutics remains a formidable challenge. Long acting cabotegravir type of therapeutics is an advanced stage of research which shows good results for the treatment of neuroAIDS. Therefore, here we are discussing the recent insights of the pathogenesis, possible therapeutics and current strategies and treatment to overcome the neuroAIDS.
