The Burden of (Neuro)Cysticercosis Among People Living With HIV in Rural Tanzania

This study aims to compare the burden of neurocysticercosis among people living with HIV to people not infected with HIV.

People living with HIV and matched HIV negative controls will be tested serologically for cysticercosis, examined neurologically and will undergo CT scanning to determine the prevalence and presentation of NCC.

Furthermore, the immune system response in HIV patients with Taenia solium neurocysticercosis will be assessed.
