Abstract

Cardiovascular risk profile was compared in 765 Italian HIV-infected outpatients enrolled in 2005 and in 765 individually age-matched and sex-matched patients enrolled in 2011. Median Framingham risk score was 8.6% in 2005 vs. 7.9% in 2011 (PS=S0.04); metabolic syndrome was present in 40.3% vs. 33.4% (PS=S0.006). Blood glucose, triglycerides, prevalence of smokers, and lipodystrophy were all significantly lower in 2011 (all PS0.0001). Cardiovascular risk improved over a 6-year period in Italian HIV-infected patients.
