“…Analysis of the results obtained in this study, however, further broadens our understanding of the metabolic effects of these two regimens, and helps to justify planning for further trials in an HIV-infected population. Also, correlations in metabolic disturbances between HIVinfected and uninfected individuals have been documented in other studies [28,29]. As would be expected, changes in most lipid and glucose parameters were generally comparable between the treatment groups during treatment with low-dose RTV alone.…”

“…The BMI and WC were normal for sex and age. The DXA-derived total body fat percentage (median = 13.8%) was lower than in agematched HIV-negative Caucasian men but consistent with that observed previously in treated HIV-infected patients [9]. The median VAT area was 127 cm VAT vs. WC scatter plot …”

“…In the literature, the trunk/leg ratio (TLR) has been proposed as a marker of lipodystrophy in HIV patients [9,10], and it correlates with insulin resistance and dyslipidemia [5]. The FM of the trunk (FM-tr) and of the legs (FM-legs), and their ratio (TLR) can be considered in studying FM distribution changes occurring in disease and with aging.…”
