pubmed:abstractText |
Four patients with human-immuno-deficiency-virus-associated neurological disease were treated with 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT). Three (two with chronic dementia, and one with chronic dementia and peripheral neuropathy) improved as assessed by clinical examination, psychometric tests, nerve conduction studies, and/or positron emission tomography; there was no improvement in the fourth patient who presented with paraplegia. These results support the hypothesis that certain AIDS-virus-associated neurological abnormalities are reversible by antiretroviral chemotherapy.
