The peripheral and central nervous systems are commonly affected in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Primary infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can cause an acute encephalitis, meningitis, or an acute polyneuropathy. Spinal cord involvement can result in a progressive spastic paraparesis. Many patients develop dementia which can be severely debilitating. Sensory neuropathies can also occur late in the course.
获得性免疫缺陷综合征（艾滋病）患者的外周和中枢神经系统通常会受到影响。人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）的原发性感染可导致急性脑炎、脑膜炎或急性多发性神经病。脊髓受累可导致进行性痉挛性截瘫。许多患者会发展为痴呆，这可能会严重削弱身体机能。感觉神经病也可能在病程后期出现。
