Abstract:"Objective: HIV/AIDS disproportionately affects Latinos but consequences of the illness remain understudied in this group. Many HIV+ Latinos from the US-Mexico border region are primarily Spanish speaking, and properly validated instruments are needed to evaluate changes in daily functioning that may occur as a result of HIV-associated cognitive impairment. |
