Anatomic Fat Depots and Coronary Plaque Among Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected and Uninfected Men in the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study
Methods. In a cross-sectional substudy of the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study, noncontrast cardiac computed tomography (CT) scanning for coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring was performed on all men, and, for men with normal renal function, coronary CT angiography (CTA) was performed. Associations between fat depots (visceral adipose tissue [VAT], abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue [aSAT], a...
متن کاملInflammatory Markers Associated With Subclinical Coronary Artery Disease: The Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study
BACKGROUND Despite evidence for higher risk of coronary artery disease among HIV+ individuals, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. We investigated associations of inflammatory markers with subclinical coronary artery disease in 923 participants of the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (575 HIV+ and 348 HIV- men) who underwent noncontrast computed tomography scans for coronary artery ...
متن کاملCopy Number Variation within Human β-Defensin Gene Cluster Influences Progression to AIDS in the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study.
STUDY BACKGROUND DEFB4/103A encoding β-defensin 2 and 3, respectively, inhibit CXCR4-tropic (X4) viruses in vitro. We determined whether DEFB4/103A Copy Number Variation (CNV) influences time-to-X4 and time-to-AIDS outcomes. METHODS We utilized samples from a previously published Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS), which provides longitudinal account of viral tropism in relation to the full...
متن کاملAIDS diagnosis and depression in the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study: the ameliorating impact of pet ownership.
The impact of pet ownership on depression was tested among a sample of gay and bisexual men (n = 1,872). Multivariate analyses, controlling for demographics and baseline depressive symptomatology, showed that neither pet ownership nor the presence of HIV infection was associated with depression. Depression was influenced by the presence of AIDS and by having relatively few confidants. Analyses ...
متن کاملMortality among participants in the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study and the Women's Interagency HIV Study.
BACKGROUND Many studies that have reported decreases in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related mortality since the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) have also reported steady increases in non-HIV-related mortality over the same time periods. We examined temporal trends and risk factors for accident- and injury-related mortality among HIV-infected and -uninfected partici...
