The State of Aging in 2024
This webinar features initial key findings from the HealthHIV Fourth Annual State of Aging with HIV™ National Survey and expert faculty, including from the Administration for Community Living (ACL), the Office of Infectious Disease and HIV/AIDS Policy of the Department of Health and Human Services, community organizations, and HealthHIV.
Patients With HIV May Have High Prevalence of Long COVID
The prevalence of long COVID was high in patients living with HIV, according to a review published in eClinicalMedicine.
Methamphetamine and cardiac disease among people with HIV infection
The study evaluates the association between methamphetamine use and cardiac disease among PWH.
Factors affecting statin uptake among people living with HIV: primary care provider perspectives
This study examined clinic leadership and provider perceptions of factors associated with statin prescribing for persons with HIV receiving care in eight community health clinics across Los Angeles, California.
Unique Gut Microbiome in HIV Patients on Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) Suggests Association with Chronic Inflammation
The article investigated compositional changes in the gut microbiome and its role in chronic inflammation in patients infected with HIV.
Long-Term Suppressive cART Is Not Sufficient to Restore Intestinal Permeability and Gut Microbiota Compositional Changes
The study explores the long-term effects of cART on markers of gut damage, microbial translocation, and paired gut/blood microbiota composition, with a focus on the role exerted by different drug classes.
Altered gut microbiota correlates with different immune responses to HAART in HIV-infected individuals
Gut microbiota and immune activation were studied in 36 non-HIV-infected subjects and 58 HIV-infected individuals, including 28 immunological responders and 30 immunological non-responders without comorbidities.
Echocardiographic Findings Among Virally Suppressed HIV-Infected Aging Asians Compared with HIV-Negative Individuals
The study looked into the prevalence and risk factors associated with echocardiogram abnormalities among those who are older and living with HIV.
Oral and Gut Microbial Diversity and Immune Regulation in Patients with HIV on Antiretroviral Therapy
The study aimed to determine the relationship between oral and gut microbiome diversity and chronic systemic inflammation in ART-treated PLWH with prevalent severe periodontitis, an inflammatory condition commonly associated with HIV infection.
HIV and Aging in Mainland China: Implications for Control and Prevention
The last 15 years have witnessed a dramatic change in HIV-related epidemiology amidst improvements in treatment and care in China. With proper treatment, HIV is now considered a chronic disease. As a consequence, many people living with HIV (PLWH) now present age-related comorbidities. Thirteen topical issues were reviewed concerning the epidemiology of aging with HIV in mainland China.
