ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) stratifies cardiovascular risk in asymptomatic patients with subclinical atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to determine the ability of MCTD and clinical and laboratory parameters to assess subclinical CVD progression in HIV patients.METHODS:
Prospective longitudinal cohort study of patients with at least 10 years of HIV infection and 5 years of antiretroviral therapy history, low cardiovascular risk and monitored for 6 years (2015-2021). All patients underwent clinical assessment, blood analysis, carotid ultrasound, and gated MDCT in 2015 and 2021.RESULTS:
Sixty-three patients (63.5% male) with a mean age of 49.9 years (standard deviation [SD], 10.5) were included in 2015; 63 of them were followed until 2021. Comparing the results from 2015 with those from 2021, Systematic Coronary Risk Estimation-2 (SCORE2) was 2.9% (SD, 2.1) vs. 4.4% (SD,3.1); Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis score (MESA risk) was 3.4 (SD 5.8) vs. 6.0 (SD 8.6); coronary artery calcification CAC) score >100 was 11.1% vs. 25.4% (P < 0.05); and 11% vs. 27% had carotid plaques (P = 0.03).CONCLUSIONS:
After six years of follow-up, an increase in SCORE2, carotid plaques, CAC scoring and MESA risk was observed. MDCT findings, along with other clinical and laboratory parameters, could play an important role as a marker of CVD progression in the evaluation of patients with HIV and low cardiovascular risk.Palavras-chave
