Association between education level and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Abstract:

:In the era of antiretroviral treatment, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) is common in HIV-positive (HIV+) patients, with an incidence of 30-50%. The relationship between education level and HAND has been evaluated in some studies, however, the results were inconsistent. The aim of this meta-analysis was to provide compelling evidence on the association between education level and the risk of HAND. Reports were searched for in the databases of Medline, Embase and PsyclNFO. Studies evaluating the relationship between education level and HAND in adult HIV+ patients were included. The pooled odds ratio/risk ratio was analysed by using the random-effects model. Two subgroup analyses were performed according to the adjustment of educational level in the neurocognitive impairment assessment and the income level. In total, 18 studies were included. Six studies and 12 studies reported education level as the continuous variable and categorical variable, respectively. The methods used for the assessment of neurocognitive impairment in included studies were neuropsychological battery tests (n = 10), HIV Dementia Scale (n = 1), the International HIV Dementia Scale (n = 6) and the Chinese version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (n = 1). The result showed that the risk of HAND in HIV+ patients who have lower education attainment was significantly higher than that in HIV+ patients who have higher education attainment. In conclusion, this meta-analysis demonstrated that HIV+ patients who have low education attainment carry higher risk of developing HAND compared with HIV+ patients who have high education attainment. This study highlighted the importance of early neurological screening for HIV+ patients who have low education level.
