AB OBJECTIVE: To compare the brain-stem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs)
of HIV-infected subjects in early stages with normal healthy controls.
METHODS: BAEPs were performed on 23 otoneurological asymptomatic HIV-1
seropositive patients and 30 HIV-1 seronegative controls. Abnormal
audiometry, alcohol consumption, AIDS-indicator conditions and CD4 count
below 400 per cubic millimeter were considered as exclusion criterions.
RESULTS: As compared with controls HIV-1 seropositives subjects showed a
statistically significant difference (p 0.05, t-Student test) in the
values of central conduction times (CCTs) III-V of BAEPs. CCTs I-III and
I-V showed no differences between groups. CONCLUSIONS: BAEPs are a
sensitive methods in detecting subclinical involvement of the upper
brain stem in early stages of HIV-1 infection.
