We look at a community-dwelling cohort of older PLWH in the greater St. Louis area. We evaluate the effects of common air pollutants, including fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ozone on cognitive performance and brain structure, while simultaneously taking into account socioeconomic status as measured by Area Deprivation Index (ADI).4
