“…A particularity of dyslipidemia in HIV+ patients treated by c-ART is the combination of lipid disturbances related firstly to the HIV infection per se and secondly induced by c-ART. Management of this complex dyslipidemia appears as an important challenge for clinicians, as often, lipid lowering therapy alone does not allow to reach the lipid target 36,41,42 and should be associated to diet and lifestyle modification and/or switching of some antiretroviral agents 43 . A specific disturbance that persists in about half of patients is a trend to low HDL-C levels and moderate hypertriglyceridemia.…”

“…It is hypothesised that this dyslipidaemia is multifactorial and includes a direct effect of the PI and a more complex mechanism involveing immunologic, genetic and pharmacodynamic factors and HIV-infection itself [5,12,16,17,24]. To our knowledge this is the first prospective study analysing LPV levels with serum lipids in a cohort of only antiretroviral therapy-naive patients.…”

“…Patients with initially high lipid levels are at higher risk of developing (severe) hyperlipidaemia. The pathogenic mechanism of this dyslipidaemia is multifactorial and includes effects of the virus itself and antiretroviral use [5].…”

“…17,18 There is thus a persistent inflammatory state in these patients that results in vascular damage and premature atherosclerosis. 19 Some studies have shown a significant increase in non-calcified plaques in HIV patients treated with HAART, which may also be associated with cardiovascular events.…”
