Cardiovascular disease in HIV infection.

Curr Opin HIV AIDS 6(4):266-71 (2011) PMID 21546831

Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) use has markedly reduced AIDS-related mortality and opportunistic illness. With improved survival, cardiovascular disease (CVD) has emerged as an important noninfectious chronic comorbidity among antiretroviral (ARV)-treated HIV-infected persons.

    We assessed temporal changes in excess mortality and elucidated risk factors for excess mortality in patients with AIDS diagnosed in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Methods.  We included 1188 patients of the Longitudinal Study of Ocular Complications in AIDS who were aged...

    As availability of primary cells can be limited for genetic studies of human disease, lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCL) are common sources of genomic DNA. LCL are created in a transformation process that entails in vitro infection of human B-lymphocytes with the Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV).
