Development of dyslipidemias in a cohort of Mexican adult patients with HIV/AIDS under highly active antiretroviral therapy

Abstract

Dyslipidemias are comorbidities in seropositive patients under highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), which increase their risk of complications and reduce their life expectancy. Objective: evaluate the frequency and development of dyslipidemias in seropositive patients with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Material and method: retrospective cohort study, in recently diagnosed HIV+ patients: 366 men and 59 women. Serum concentrations of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TGC), HDL cholesterol (HDL-c) and LDL cholesterol (LDL-c) were evaluated before starting and at month 6, 24, 36 and 48 with HAART. Results: in both sexes at the beginning of the HAART, 67.1% of low HDL-C levels were obtained. Dyslipidaemia due to TGC and TC increased significantly in all participants after 48 months of HAART (36.9% vs. 52.7% and 7.1% vs. 22.4%, respectively, p<0.05). however, the HDL-C decreased in patients with nucleoside and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor drugs. Discussion: HIV+ patients with HAART have a higher risk of developing dyslipidaemia, an increase in concentrations occurred after 6 months of treatment, a trend that continued positive until 48 months with HAART. Conclusions: dyslipidemias due to TG and TC, as well as low HDL-C are the most frequent in HIV+ patients, which change depending on the time and the type of drug indicated in the HAART.
