Interestingly, after adjustment for HIV− and CVD‐related risk factors, the prevalence ratios of coronary artery stenosis above 50% associated with each SD increase in values of IL‐6, hs‐CRP, and D‐dimer in our study were comparable to the hazard ratios reported in the SMART trial, 56 although the association of hs‐CRP with coronary artery stenosis was only marginally significant ( P =0.06) and the relationship of D‐dimer with coronary artery stenosis was not statistically significant.
