Brief Summary: This is a prospective cohort study designed to define the impact of HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy (ART) on young adults with perinatal HIV infection (YAPHIV) as they transition into adulthood. A group of of perinatally exposed but uninfected young adults from a similar sociodemographic background and age distribution will be enrolled for comparison.
Detailed Description: AMP Up aims to define the impact of HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy (ART) on young adults with perinatal HIV infection as they transition into adulthood. A group of uninfected perinatally-exposed young adults from a similar sociodemographic background and age distribution will be enrolled for comparison. The primary objectives of this study are: * To identify infectious and non-infectious complications of HIV disease and toxicities resulting from long-term ART, including disease progression, immune dysfunction, viral resistance, end-organ disease, and mortality. * To define the impact of HIV infection and ART on the long-term clinical outcomes of young adults, including: * Metabolic abnormalities and risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including glucose and lipid metabolism, blood pressure, and body composition. * Sexually transmitted infections (Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Trichomonas vaginalis, syphilis, human papillomavirus (HPV), genital warts and HSV) among males and females, and cervical HPV-associated pre-cancers and cancers and Mycoplasma genitalium and other vaginal microbiota among females. * Reproductive health, fertility, and pregnancy outcomes including mother-to-child transmission of HIV. * To define the impact of perinatal HIV infection, its concomitant risk factors and ART on long-term neurocognitive and behavioral health outcomes, including: * Mental health and neurocognitive functioning. * Health care behaviors, including adherence to ART, participation in health care services, and transition to adult clinical care. * Risk behaviors, including sexual behavior and substance use. * Independent living skills, and vocational and education achievement necessary for successful transition to adult functioning and quality of life.
