Associations Between HIV Serostatus and Cardiac Structure and Function Evaluated by 2-Dimensional Echocardiography in the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study.

However, when comparing virally suppressed HIV seropositive (VL <20 copies/mL) with HIV seronegative men, there remained significant increases in indexed LV mass (β=2.97 [95% CI, 0.31–5.63], P =0.029), LA diameter (β=0.08 [95% CI, 0.02–0.14], P =0.012), and indexed LA area (β=0.27 [95% CI, 0.06–0.48], P =0.011) as well as decreased mitral e’ velocity (β=−0.42 [−0.70 to −0.14], P =0.004) and increased E/e’ ratio (β=0.34, [95% CI, 0.03–0.66], P =0.033) and a borderline significant increased prevalence of DD (odds ratio 1.40 [95% CI, 0.99–2.00], P =0.06).
