* Associations of alcohol use, HIV infection, and age with brain white matter microstructure.
- Heavy drinking and HIV infection are independently associated with damage to the brain's white matter. The purpose of the current study was to investigate whether current alcohol consumption, HIV infection, and associated characteristics were associated with indices of white matter microstructural integrity in people living with HIV (PLWH) and seronegative individuals. PLWH and controls were categorized as non-drinkers, moderate drinkers, or heavy drinkers. White matter fractional anisotropy (FA), radial diffusivity (RD), and axial diffusivity (AD) were assessed using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Voxelwise analyses using tract-based spatial statistics were followed by confirmatory region-of-interest (ROI) analyses. Data from 108 participants (62 PLWH, 46 controls) were suitable for analysis. Average age (± standard deviation) was 45.2 ± 11.1 years, and the sample was 42% female. The majority of PLWH were on antiretroviral therapy (94%) and were virally suppressed (69%). PLWH and controls did not differ on substance use. Heavier alcohol intake was significantly associated with lower FA and higher RD in widespread areas. Heavy drinking was significantly associated with higher AD in a small region. The main effect of HIV was not significant, but a significant HIV-age interaction was observed. Follow-up ROI analyses confirmed the main effect of drinking group and HIV-age interaction. In conclusion, results are consistent with a dose-dependent association of alcohol use with lower white matter microstructural coherence. Concordance between FA and RD findings suggests dysmyelination as a mechanism. Findings underscore the need to address unhealthy alcohol use in HIV-positive and seronegative individuals, the consequences of which may be exacerbated by aging.
