Our aim was to assess the intellectual profile of our cohort, considering both the infection and socio-environmental related variables. A cross-sectional cohort study was undertaken at seven major hospitals in Spain belonging to the CoRISpeS cohort (n = 97). Patients were followed up according to a standard protocol. Intellectual measures, psychosocial profile and HIV infection-related data have been analysed. The average patient age was 15 years. The median CD4 cell percentage was 35% (1,59). Viral load was undetectable in 80% of the patients and 27% were on AIDS category; 38% of whom had encephalopathy. The average composite score of both crystallized intelligence (CI) and intelligence quotient (IQ) for the cohort was lower than that of the general population (penAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/CognitionCognitive psychologyHIVIQIntelligenceLearning and memoryPsychologyVertical transmissionVirologyresearch article32368635open access10.1016/j.heliyon.2020.e03600PMC7184518http://www.cell.com/article/S240584402030445X/pdfhttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7184518/pdf
