Abstract
Central nervous ('CNS') health in subjects who have human immunodeficiency virus (“HIV”) or non-human-species analogs thereof is 102 evaluated or otherwise monitored by analyzing frequency following response (“FFR”). In general, one or more components of an FFR are analyzed, The FFR is measured in response to the administration of an acoustic stimulus to the subject. The acoustic stimulus includes a complex sound, which may include a consonant and a consonant-to-vowel transition. An indication of CNS health can be generated by measuring changes in the FFR components (e.g., over time or relative to normative data).
