“…For individuals with access to early diagnosis and robust treatment options, lifespan can be similar to uninfected individuals ( Marcus et al., 2016 , 2020 ; May et al., 2014 ). Unfortunately, chronic HIV and long-term use of ART substantially increase the risk of comorbid diseases ( d'Arminio Monforte et al., 2020 ; Ruzicka et al., 2019 ), meaning the quality of the added lifespan may be worse ( Collins and Armstrong, 2020 ). These comorbidities include cardiovascular ( Freiberg et al., 2013 ; Triant et al., 2007 ), liver ( Perazzo and Luz, 2017 ) and kidney disease ( Naicker et al., 2015 ), cognitive impairment and neuropsychiatric disorders such as depression, substance abuse, and anxiety ( Cook et al., 2018 ; Milanini et al., 2017 ; Rubin and Maki, 2019 ; Saylor et al., 2016 ; Shiau et al., 2017 ), a number of non-AIDS defining cancers, and metabolic diseases such as diabetes ( Hernandez-Romieu et al., 2017 ).…”
