Peripheral neuropathy in HIV patients on antiretroviral therapy: Does it impact function?

Abstract:

:HIV-associated distal sensory polyneuropathy (DSP), with or without neuropathic symptoms, can develop after anti-retroviral therapy (ART). Symptoms frequently involve small fibres but reports on autonomic dysfunction in HIV-DSP are sparse. We studied an HIV-infected cohort after 5 years of ART, and report on the frequency and severity of autonomic symptoms and the impact of DSP on everyday function. This cross-sectional study comprised of participants from a community-based South African HIV-clinic. The Brief Peripheral Neuropathy Screen and reduced Total Neuropathy Score evaluated neuropathic symptoms/signs. DSP was defined as ≥2 symmetrical DSP-signs, and symptomatic DSP when accompanied by neuropathic symptoms. Autonomic symptoms questionnaires, heart rate variability and postural blood pressure changes were assessed. The Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS) was completed. The 67 participants had a median age of 42 years and median ART exposure of 7 years with viral suppression in 84%. Most (81%) met our criteria for DSP and 36% had additional neuropathic symptoms. Autonomic symptoms and signs (above normative values) were present in 15% and more likely in those with symptomatic DSP (P < .001). Participants with DSP, even without symptoms, had lower LEFS scores (P ≤ .039) than those without. HIV-DSP is prevalent and impacts on daily living.
