Abstract
Introduction Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related morbidity and mortality have declined over time, but this increased longevity may lead to the development of other diseases, which may further manifest as the metabolic syndrome (MS). Method To find out the point prevalence of MS in HIV positive patients, a cross-sectional prospective observational study was conducted on 200 patients who approached ART plus Centre of Government Medical College and Hospital Jammu, including 50 symptomatic patients HIV negative as controls. Results The mean age group in MS was 37.85 ± 6.61. Males consisted of 55% (110) and females consisted of 45% (90). The overall prevalence of MS was 13.5%, with prevalence in males being 16.3% and in females 10%. Patients receiving first line highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) showed a 24% prevalence, while that of second line HAART showed a 14% prevalence. Central obesity (47.3%) was the most common component of MS followed by hyperglycemia (43.3%), hypertriglyceridemia (38.6%), and low high density cholesterol (HDL-C) level (38.6%). Out of 84 males with MS, 94% (79) males were having hypertriglyceridemia, 88% (74) were hypertensive, and 72% (60) were having FBS >=100. Out of 66 females with MS, 100% (66) females had central obesity and 88% (58) had hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL-C levels. Conclusion The metabolic complications as a result of treatment with HAART leave HIV patients at a risk of developing cardiovascular disease and diabetes in spite of improvements in morbidity and mortality. Risk factors like central obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hypertriglyceridemia should be taken into consideration well before to prevent the add-on effect of developing MS.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Menopause is an integral part of women's health, and studies in high-income countries have shown an increase in cardiometabolic disease (CMD) risk factors in postmenopausal compared with premenopausal women. However, to date, no study has combined and assessed such studies across low- and middle-income countries. This would better inform early monitoring and intervention strategies for reducing CMD risk factor levels in midlife women in these regions. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate evidence from the literature on differences in CMD risk factors between premenopausal and postmenopausal midlife women living in low- and middle-income countries. EVIDENCE REVIEW A systematic review with meta-analysis of original articles of all study designs from the databases PubMed, PubMed Central, Scopus, and ISI Web of Science was conducted from conception until April 24, 2023. Studies that met the inclusion criteria were included in the analysis. Quality assessment of the articles was done using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, adapted for each study design. The study protocol was registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews and adheres to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis. For the meta-analysis, fixed-effects models were used to pool the odds ratios (OR), as measures of association. FINDINGS Our search identified 4,849 relevant articles: 44 for the systematic review and 16 for the meta-analysis, in accordance with our inclusion criteria. Compared with premenopausal women, the postmenopausal stage was associated with metabolic syndrome (OR, 1.18 [95% CI, 1.11-1.27]), high waist-to-hip ratio (OR, 1.22 [95% CI, 1.12-1.32]), hypertension (OR, 1.10 [95% CI, 1.04-1.16]), elevated triglycerides (OR, 1.16 [95% CI, 1.11-1.21]), and elevated plasma glucose (OR, 1.21 [95% CI, 1.15-1.28]). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE This study confirmed that CMD risk factors are present at higher levels in postmenopausal than premenopausal women. This demonstrates an urgent need for public health policies that focus on early monitoring and interventions targeted at reducing CMD risk and related adverse outcomes in midlife women in these nations.

Abstract
Background Access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) allows people living with HIV (PLWH) to live longer. Consequently, non communicable diseases (NCD) have emerged as the main drivers of ill health, disability, and premature death. This study assessed the magnitude of hypertension and diabetes and risk factors among PLWH receiving ART in Ethiopia. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted using an analytical component. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews, physical measurements, and chart reviews of the 520 adults. Associations between the demographic and clinical attributes of hypertension and diabetes were assessed using logistic regression models. Results Prevalence of hypertension was (18.5%) (95% CI: 15.2%-21.7%), and diabetes was (6.9%) (95% CI: 4.8%-9.2%). More than two-thirds (70.8%) and 61% were newly diagnosed with hypertension and diabetes, respectively. Age > = 45 years [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 2.47], alcohol consumption (AOR = 4.51), Insufficient physical activity (AOR = 3.7), BMI ≥25 (AOR = 3.95), family history of hypertension (AOR = 7.1), and diabetes (AOR = 4.95) were associated with hypertension. Age ≥45 years [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 2.47], BMI ≥25 (AOR = 1.91), Central obesity (AOR = 3.27), detectable viral load (AOR = 4.2), hypertension (AOR = 4.95) and duration of ART >10 years (AOR = 3.12) were associated with diabetes. Conclusions A combination of modifiable and nonmodifiable factors increased the risk of hypertension and diabetes. Primary prevention strategies, regular screening for hypertension and diabetes and integration with HIV care in primary health care are the recommended intervention measures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Metabolic abnormalities are frequently reported in HIV infection. They were mainly related to the chronic infection and the use of antiretroviral therapy. OBJECTIVE Describe the epidemiological, clinical, laboratory and treatment features of people living with HIV (PLHIV) on antiretroviral therapy and determine the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its associated factors. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study in the service of Infectious Diseases of the University Hospital of Monastir. We included all PLHIV on antiretroviral therapy for at least 3 months. Biological explorations based on metabolic parameters were performed systematically for all patients after informed consent. Metabolic syndrome was assessed according to the definitions of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in 2005. We divided the patients into two groups: Group A: PLHIV with metabolic syndrome (n=19) and Group B: PLHIV without metabolic syndrome (n=51). RESULTS We included in this study 70 PLVIH. The metabolic syndrome was noted in 19 cases (27.1%). The average age was 43.7 years in group A and 36.7 years in group B. Gender distribution were uniform in the two groups (P=0.4). HIV infection has been evolving for 9.7 and 5.8 years respectively in group A and B, P=0.017. Body mass index (BMI) was significantly higher in group A (26.4 vs 23.5kg/m2, P=0.008). Two patients in group A (10.5%) and 14 patients in group B (27.4%) had a low CD4 count (<200/mm3). Protease inhibitor regimens were prescribed in five cases (26.3%) in group A and 26 cases (50.9%) in group B. In multivariate models, Age over 40 (OR=9.9, 95% CI 2.4-40.6, P=0.001) and BMI ≥25 Kg/m2 (OR=8.47, 95% CI 1.94-36.8, p=0.004) were both independently associated with the presence of the metabolic syndrome. CONCLUSION Metabolic syndrome is common among PLHIV on antiretroviral therapy. The identification of factors associated is a main parameter for early detection of metabolic risk and personalized management.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW With the establishment of antiretroviral treatment (ART) programs in low- and middle-income countries, people with HIV (PWH) in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) are living longer, subsequently developing chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Few studies focus on the impact of aging among older LAC PWH. This systematic review aims to fill this information gap and understand the burden of aging with HIV in LAC. We identified peer-reviewed literature published in English, Spanish, or Portuguese from several databases to assess currently available evidence on the burden of aging with HIV in LAC and selected six common NCDs found in older PWH (cardiovascular disease [CVD], bone and musculoskeletal [MSK] disorders, cancer, renal disease, neurocognitive impairment [NCI], and depression). RECENT FINDINGS Of the 5942 publications reviewed, only 53 articles were found with populations 40 years and older or age-related findings (27 CVD, 13 NCI or depression, 6 MSK disorders, 4 renal disease, 3 cancer). Most (79%) publications were from Brazil with few longitudinal studies on aging with HIV. Prevalence of illnesses such as CVD, NCI, depression, or osteoporosis varied widely depending on the screening instrument utilized and geographic population surveyed. Age was a significant predictor of comorbidity in nearly all studies. Our results demonstrate the need for longitudinal studies and validated screening instruments appropriate for use among PWH in LAC. Understanding the mechanisms behind aging in HIV and the roles of sociocultural factors and genetic diversity specific to LAC is needed to appropriately manage chronic comorbidities as PWH age.

Abstract
Premature menopause can occur in women living with human HIV. In this study, we analyzed and reviewed published literature using the PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase databases since the year 1990 using a combination of MeSH terms such as “Early,” “Premature,” “Menopause,” “HIV,” and “Hormones.” Monitoring and implementation of targeted interventions for premature or early menopause among HIV-infected women might prevent or delay complications such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, and mental health issues.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION HIV infected persons are twofold likely to experience a heart attack, stroke, and other forms of Cardiometabolic Syndrome (CMetS). METHODS Electronic searches of databases (MEDLINE and Google Scholar) were queried for articles written in English from 2000 to 2019. RESULTS In this review (16 publications), a total of 14,002 participants from 8 countries were included. Two continents contributed to 62.5% of the CMetS studies while 38.1% from Latin America and 24.4% from North America. The studies were conducted in 113 different centers, with an average study length of 2.8 years. The majority of the study designs were cross-sectional (62%) followed by a cohort study (25%) and clinical trials (12.5%). The mean age of the population enrolled was 41.9 years and 54.6% of the participants were males. The overall prevalence of CMetS using the National Cholesterol Education Adult Treatment Panel definition was 20.6%. Only 31.3% of the studies were reported using the International Diabetes Federation definition. Smoking and high blood pressure were reported as a risk factor in 62.5% of the studies, while diabetes (31.3%), family history of CMetS (25%), and cardiac vascular and cancer diseases were reported in 12.5% of the studies. The average duration of stay with HIV after confirmation was 5.23 + 1.4 (years + SD) and the median duration on HAART was 4.5 + 2.3 (years + SD). CONCLUSIONS CMetS was a common problem among HIV infected persons. Several RFs can contribute to the development of CMetS with smoking and hypertension highly interrelated.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The global prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) among people living with HIV/AIDS varies from 20% to 33%. OBJECTIVE to estimate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and associated factors in a group of HIV-infected patients on antiretroviral therapy. METHODS This is a cross-sectional study with HIV-infected patients from a reference center in Bahia, Brazil. We evaluated clinical, socio-demographic and anthropometric data. MS was defined according to the guidelines of International Diabetes Federation. RESULTS We evaluated 152 patients with mean age of 47.3±11.6 years, 59.2% male. The main comorbidities detected were diabetes (3.3%) hypertriglyceridemia (9.3%) and metabolic syndrome (MS,38.2%). Patients with MS were predominantly women (55.2% vs 31.9%; p=0.005), older [52.1 (10.4) vs 44.3 (11.3); p<0.001], and had overweight (74.1% vs 23.4%; p<0.001). After multivariate analysis MS remained associated with age (OR = 1.076; 95% CI: 1.030 - 1.125), female sex (OR = 2.452; 95% CI: 1.114 - 5.374) and family history of hypertension (OR = 3.678; 95% CI: 1.431 - 9.395). CONCLUSION Almost half of the HIV-infected patients in Bahia presents with MS which seems to be driven by classical risk factors.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of diabetes mellitus in people with HIV/AIDS and to assess the associated risk factors. A cross-sectional study with 168 patients treated at an infectious disease outpatient. Were investigated sociodemographic, epidemiological and clinical variables through interview using forms. Casual plasma glucose, blood pressure and anthropometric data were recorded. For the analysis, we used descriptive statistics and logistic regression. The results showed that most patients were male, single, with 9-12 years of schooling, in the category of sexual exposure and heterosexual. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus was 7.14%, and risk factors were smoking, alcohol use, inadequate diet, increased abdominal circumference, overweight, age over 45 years, family history of diabetes and personal history of hypertension. Women were 5.29 times more likely to have increased abdominal circumference (P < 0.001). Men (P = 0.003), married (P = 0.035), with monthly income greater than two times the minimum wage (P = 0.035) were more likely to be hypertensive. Diabetes occurred in older patients (P = 0.008). In conclusion, the prevalence of people with HIV/AIDS and diabetes mellitus was 7.14%, and most had modifiable risk factors for diabetes, including smoking, alcohol use, inadequate diet and overweight, needing health education interventions for diabetes prevention.

Abstract
AIM The global operation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has averted 30 million new infections and nearly 8 million deaths; however, it has an impact on metabolic syndrome (MS) acquisition. As a result, there is growing concern about MS; but strangely the magnitude of MS in HIV-infected cohort, and its differential contribution ART status in Ethiopia has yet to be abundantly studied. Hence, the aim of this study was to estimate and evaluate the difference of the overall magnitude of MS among ART exposed and ART naïve people living with HIV (PLWH). MATERIALS AND METHODS An institution based cross-sectional study was conducted at the randomly chosen two hospitals and health centers, in Gedio zone, southern Ethiopia between December 29th, 2017 and January 22nd, 2019. Data were collected using the WHO three step tools. The collected data were fed into Epidata version.3.1 and exported to SPSS version 22 for analysis. The descriptive complex sample analysis method was employed, and the prevalence and differences between groups were computed with a 95% CI. RESULT A total of 633 (n = 422 ART and n = 211 ART naive) PLWH was involved, with the response rate of 92.1%. Of whom, 22.0% (95% CI: 19.0-25.4) of PLWH had MS. It was slightly higher in the ART-exposed (22.5%, 95% CI: 18.7-26.8) than ART naïve (20.9%, 95% CI: 15.2-27.1) group. CONCLUSION The global magnitude of MS in the ART-exposed was relatively higher than ART naïve groups. This dictates the existence of HIV associated MS that necessitates immediate prevention and management strategies.

Abstract
Introducción: En el contexto de las personas que viven con VIH (PVVIH), la dislipidemia es un tema que se ha venido discutiendo ampliamente, tanto por su origen multifactorial y sus implicaciones cardiovasculares, como por las posibles estrategias de prevención. De este modo, este estudio tiene por objeto evaluar la presencia de la dislipidemia en personas que viven con VIH y su asociación con aspectos sociodemográficos, actitudinales y clínicos. Materiales y Métodos: Estudio analítico, transversal realizado entre 2014 y 2016. Los datos fueron recolectados a través de entrevistas en las que se utilizaban cuestionarios y se consultaban las historias médicas. Para analizar la asociación, se utilizaron las pruebas Chi-Cuadrado y Exacto de Fisher, y la estadística Kappa para análisis de concordancia, con un nivel de significancia de p<0,05. Resultados: Participaron 340 personas en el estudio, de las cuales 59,1%, presentaron valores deseables en términos de colesterol total, 55,9% del HDL y 56,8% de triglicéridos. Las variables asociadas a la dislipidemia fueron: el colesterol total alterado y la edad a partir de 40 años (p=0,02); el HDL-c deseable y el sexo femenino (p=0,007); alteración de los triglicéridos y el tiempo de diagnóstico mayor a diez años (p=0,008); y el HDL-c deseable y la carga viral indetectable (p=0,04). Discusión: Aunque la dislipidemia sea un problema en el contexto del VIH, los valores deseables fueron más prevalentes, lo que se refleja sobre el efecto catalizador de la actividad inflamatoria causada por el VIH sobre las alteraciones lipídicas. Conclusiones: La dislipidemia en las PVVIH presentó, en su gran mayoría, valores deseables para el colesterol total, colesterol HDL y triglicéridos; y hubo una asociación entre los lípidos y los aspectos sociodemográficos y clínicos relacionados con el VIH.
