Published data from single-center cohorts of people older than 50 receiving care for HIV in Mexico and Brazil found high prevalence of (DM, 20-22%), HTN (33-62%), dyslipidemia in Mexico (57%), and chronic liver (25%) and kidney disease (16%) in Brazil.…”

Approximately 46.2% of our studied population was in overweight/obesity status, although still lower that an HIV-seropositive population from Peru which presented 52.70% (55). In a study in several populations from Latin America (Venezuela, Brazil, Colombia, Peru and Ecuador), in which PLWHA showed a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome, and 44% of the participants were under IP treatment (56).…”
