Ventricular volume adjustment of brain regions depicts brain changes associated with HIV infection and aging better than intracranial volume adjustment by Benedictor Alexander Nguchu, Benedictor Alexander Nguchu, Jing Zhao, Jiajun Fan, Yifei Han, Yu Lu, Han Jin, Yanming Wang, Hongjun Li, Peter Shaw

“…The analyses of LV-adjusted metrics also show that atrophic patterns observed in the hippocampus, thalamus and pallidum were strongly correlated with HAND(especially dysfunction in executive function) and clinical markers (i.e., CD4/CD8 ratio).ConclusionWe conclude that models that control for individual variability in intracranial and ventricular volumes have the potential to minimize discrepancies and variations in structural reports of HIV, improving the diagnostic power of identified patterns and fostering greater consistency across research studies. …”
