“…1-3,7,9,11,13 It is also reported an association with a long exposure to ARV drugs. 1,5,10,13 But, beyond 54 months of treatment, our findings did not confirm this, strengthening observations on the early onset of metabolic disorders in African HIV-infected cohorts. 11,20 Conclusions sometimes differ on the role of initial immune deficiency.…”

“…Its determining factors differed sometimes from those reported in the literature. The frequency of metabolic syndrome varies from 10% to 21% in patients receiving HAART in Africa, 5,10,11 and estimations are from 11.4% to 52.2% in Europe, 3 10,17 Similarly, the role of the virus is discussed, and the incidence of metabolic syndrome doesn't differ in HIV-infected patients compared to noninfected patients or the general population. 1,2,13,15,16,18 Despite these controversies, and because of HIV infection is a cardiovascular risk factor, metabolic syndrome should more preoccupy in HIV-infected patients.…”

“…Indeed, PLWHA, aged over 50, have a history of the disease and treatment history longer than the younger subjects and thus would develop more of metabolic abnormalities. Various studies confirm these facts [5]- [8] [20]. In our study, a difference of one year of age significantly increased by 0.3% the risk to develop metabolic syndrome.…”

“…In Africa, the frequency of metabolic syndrome varies from 10% to 21% in patients receiving ART [5] [7] [8]. This frequency is strongly related to the diagnosis criteria which are those of IDF (International Diabetes Federation) or those of NCEP-ATP III.…”

“…One report among people with Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS) on HAART, using the three criteria we studied revealed a moderate to substantial agreement among the criteria (k= 0.583-0.878). 46 Various studies 47,48,49 found substantial agreement between the IDF and ATP criteria while some found moderate agreement between the two criteria. These suggest that the two criteria identify essentially the people with MS equally.…”
