What is A-078 Examining the Neuropsychological Effects of Opioid Use in the Aging Population of People Living with HIV about?
## Abstract ## Objective People living with HIV (PLWH) exhibit accelerated and premature cognitive aging in comparison to age-matched, seronegative controls. Although opioid use is elevated among PLWH, literature regarding the neurocognitive effects of opioid use across the lifespan of PLWH is limited. This cross-sectional study examines the neurocognitive effects of opioid use across the mid-older adult lifespan of PLWH. ## Methods One-hundred fifty-two PLWH (72% Latinx; 71% Male; Mdn(IQR) Age = 47(43, 51) years; M Education = 133 years) completed comprehensive neurocognitive, neuromedical, quality of education (Wide Range Achievement Test- 4 [WRAT-4]), psychiatric/substance-use (Composite International Diagnostic Interview [CIDI]), and urine toxicology assessments. Opioid users were defined by DSM diagnostics for lifetime opioid use disorder. A series of LSR tested the interactive effects of age and opioid use across seven neurocognitive domains. ## Results After controlling for covariates (e.g., CD4 cell count; WRAT-4; comorbid substance use), a least-squares regression demonstrated significant interactive effects between age and opioid use upon verbal fluency, such that older o
