AB - BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of longitudinal changes in cognitive function would potentially allow targeted intervention in those at greatest risk of cognitive decline. We sought to build a multivariate model using volumetric neuroimaging data alone to accurately predict cognitive function. METHODS: Volumetric T1-weighted neuroimaging data from virally suppressed HIV-positive individuals from the CHARTER cohort (n=139) were segmented into grey and white matter and spatially normalised before were entering into machine learning models. Prediction of cognitive function at baseline and longitudinally was determined using leave-one-out cross validation. Additionally, a multivariate model of brain ageing was used to measure the deviation of apparent brain age from chronological age and assess its relationship with cognitive function. RESULTS: Cognitive impairment, defined using the global deficit score, was present in 37.4%. However, it was generally mild and occurred more commonly in those with confounding comorbidities (p<0.001). Although multivariate prediction of cognitive impairment as a dichotomous variable at baseline was poor (AUC 0.59), prediction of the global T-score was better than a comparable linear model (adjusted R=0.08, p<0.01 vs. adjusted R=0.01, p=0.14). Accurate prediction of longitudinal changes in cognitive function was not possible (p=0.82).Brain-predicted age exceeded chronological age by mean (95% confidence interval) 1.17 (-0.14-2.53) years, but was greatest in those with confounding comorbidities (5.87 [1.74-9.99] years) and prior AIDS (3.03 [0.00-6.06] years). CONCLUSION: Accurate prediction of cognitive impairment using multivariate models using only T1-weighted data was not achievable, which may reflect the small sample size, heterogeneity of the data or that impairment was usually mild.
