These men are at substantial risk for neuropsychological impairment due to several factors, such as substance misuse, severe mental illness, untreated medical conditions (e.g., diabetes, liver disease, HIV/AIDS), poor nutrition, and the increased likelihood of suffering a traumatic brain injury. Impairments in attention, memory, executive functioning, and other neuropsychological domains can result in poor daily functioning and difficulty engaging in psychological, medical, or educational services. Thus, knowledge of the neuropsychological functioning of homeless men is critical for those who work with this population. Yet data in this area are limited. This study aimed to describe the functioning of men residing in an urban homeless shelter across the domains of attention/concentration, memory, executive functions, language, sensory-motor abilities, general intelligence, and reading ability.

They can reduce the amount of HIV in your blood to very low levels and help restore your immune system health and your overall health. When you start taking HIV medicines, it is a big commitment. You have to take HIV medicines on time, exactly as they are prescribed, for them to work properly. What this booklet does: • Shows a picture of each HIV medicine. • Lists the amount of the drug in each dose (the amount you take may vary). • Tells you when to take the medicine and whether or not to eat food with it. • Gives general tips for taking each HIV medicine. An HIV medicine schedule is different for everyone. Your doctor or health care provider will work closely with you to decide which medicines to take and how much to1 take. Ask questions before you start taking a medicine When you pick up a new prescription or a refill of an HIV medicine at the drugstore, read the directions carefully. If you don’t understand anything about taking the medicine, ask the pharmacist to explain. Make sure the medicines look the same as the ones you are taking. Check to see if the instructions for taking them are the same instructions given by your doctor or health care provider.
