Steady-state pharmacokinetics of lamivudine in end-stage kidney failure persons with detectable and undetectable HIV-1 RNA in peritoneal dialysis effluent. Eur J Med Res 2024; 29:374. [PMID: 39026368 PMCID: PMC11256402 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-024-01972-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Renally adjusted lamivudine dosages are effective. However, some of the kidney failure patients managed with lamivudine-containing regimens are failing to suppress HIV in peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) effluent. The steady-state lamivudine pharmacokinetics among these patients was evaluated. METHODS This overnight open-label pharmacokinetic study enrolled participants living with HIV and managed with CAPD. Lamivudine levels in blood serum and CAPD effluent samples were quantified using liquid chromatography coupled with a mass spectrometer. Pharmacokinetic measures were obtained through non-compartmental analysis. RESULTS Twenty-eight participants were recruited with a median antiretroviral (ARV) drug duration of 8 (IQR,4.5-10.5) years and a CAPD duration of 13.3 (IQR,3.3-31.9) months. 14.3% (4/28) had detectable unsuppressed HIV-1 viral load in CAPD effluents. The majority (78,6%,22/28) of participants received a 50 mg dose, while 10.7% (3/28), and another 10.7% (3/28) received 75 mg and 300 mg dosages, respectively. Among those treated with 75 and 300 mg, 66.7% (2/3) and 33.3% (1/3) had detectable HIV-VL in CAPD, respectively. The peritoneal membrane characteristics and CAPD system strengths were variable across the entire study population. Lamivudine exposure was increased in blood serum (50 mg-AUC0-24 h, 651.3 ng/mL; 75 mg-AUC0-24 h, 677.84 ng/mL; 300 mg-AUC0-24 h, 3135.89 ng/mL) compared to CAPD effluents (50 mg-AUC0-24 h, 384.91 ng/mL; 75 mg-AUC0-24 h, 383.24 ng/mL; 300 mg-AUC0-24 h, 2001.60 ng/mL) among the entire study population. The Cmax (50 mg, 41.5 ng/mL; 75 mg, 53.2 ng/mL; 300 mg, 199.1 ng/mL) and Cmin (50 mg, 17.8 ng/mL; 75 mg, 16.4 ng/mL; 300 mg, 76.4 ng/mL) measured in serum were within the therapeutic levels. CONCLUSIONS Steady-state lamivudine pharmacokinetic measures were variable among the entire study population. However, the total lamivudine exposure was within the therapeutic levels.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Novel urinary biomarkers reflecting kidney tubule health are associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk in persons living with HIV. However, it is unknown whether these biomarkers provide mechanistic insight into the associations between clinical risk factors for CKD and subsequent CKD risk. METHODS Among 636 women living with HIV in the Women's Interagency HIV Study with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) >60 ml/min/1.73 m 2 , we used a counterfactual approach to causal mediation analysis to evaluate the extent to which systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), hemoglobin a1c (Hba1c) and serum albumin associations with incident CKD were mediated by eight urine proteins. These biomarkers reflect proximal tubular reabsorptive dysfunction (α1-microglobulin [a1m], β2-microglobulin, trefoil factor 3); tubular injury (interleukin 18 [IL-18], kidney injury molecule 1 [KIM-1]); kidney repair (epidermal growth factor); tubular reserve (uromodulin); and glomerular injury (urinary albumin). Incident CKD was defined as eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m 2 measured at two consecutive 6-month visits with an average annual eGFR decline ≥3% per year. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 7 years, 11% developed CKD. Urinary albumin and KIM-1 mediated 32% (95% CI: 13.4%, 76.6%) and 23% (6.9%, 60.7%) of the association between SBP and incident CKD, respectively; and 19% (5.1%, 42.3%) and 22% (8.1%, 45.7%) of the association between DBP and incident CKD, respectively. Urinary albumin, α1m, and IL-18 were significant mediators of the association between Hba1c and incident CKD. None of the eight biomarkers mediated the association between serum albumin and incident CKD. CONCLUSIONS Among women living with HIV, several urinary biomarkers reflecting distinct dimensions of kidney health may partially explain the associations between SBP, DBP, and Hba1c and subsequent CKD risk.

Therapie 2024; 79:371-378. [PMID: 37634954 DOI: 10.1016/j.therap.2023.07.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023]
Abstract
Phosphorus is an essential element for all living organisms and is involved in various biological pathways. A severe hypophosphatemia can lead to serious complications (acute heart or respiratory failure, rhabdomyolysis, hemolysis…) and increases mortality in patients at risk. Various drugs are known to induce hypophosphatemia through various mechanisms. The aim of this study was to highlight the main drugs associated with hypophosphatemia and to deduce the underlying mechanisms based on a descriptive analysis and a case/non-case analysis using the cases of drug-induced hypophosphatemia reported to the French Pharmacovigilance Network. A total of 368 cases of hypophosphatemia were included in the study. Patients' mean age was 52±18 years. One hundred and ninety-one cases (52%) were serious including 131 (36%) hospitalizations. The median value of serum phosphorus level was 0.54mmol/L [0.40-0.66] (n=309). Those 368 cases corresponded to 185 different suspected substances among which the most frequent drugs were tenofovir disoproxil (n=175; 48%), ferric carboxymaltose (n=29; 8%), denosumab (n=16; 4%), zoledronic acid (n=14; 4%) and hydrochlorothiazide (n=10; 3%). For these five drugs, a significant disproportionality was found. Tenofovir-disoproxil related hypophosphatemia occurred more than one year after its introduction, and a renal tubulopathy (Fanconi's syndrome) was reported in 44 cases (25%). Hypophosphatemia related to iron carboxymaltose occurred within a median of 20 days after injection and was mostly severe. Mechanism included the fibroblast growth factor 23 which can be measured to confirm drug origin. Concerning anti-osteoporosis treatments, hypophosphatemia could be explained by their mechanism of action (abrupt increase of parathormone induced by hypocalcemia) but the patient history (malignancy condition) was a major bias. For hydrochlorothiazide, hyphosphatemia was often moderate, associated with other electrolytic disturbances and occurred during a long-term treatment. Awareness of healthcare professionals is essential to detect as soon as possible hypophosphatemia and its complications related to these drugs.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the association between novel biomarkers and renal injury in people with HIV (PWH). A cohort study was carried out with PWH under chronic use of antiretroviral therapy (ART), followed at a public outpatient service. Clinical and laboratory parameters of the patients were evaluated year by year, from 2015 [at baseline (year 1, Y1)] to 2019 [year 5 (Y5)]. At baseline, biomarkers of renal damage (e.g., neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin-NGAL, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1-MCP-1, and kidney injury molecule-1-KIM-1) and endothelial activation or glycocalyx damage [e.g., intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), E-selectin, and syndecan-1] were quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and their levels were used to classify patients into different groups. However, only syndecan-1 showed a significant correlation with serum creatinine (p < .001) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (p = .003) over the years. Moreover, both serum creatinine and GFR in almost 5 years were significantly associated with serum levels of syndecan-1 at baseline. The multivariate linear regression with confounders showed a significant and independent association between GFR and levels of syndecan-1 and CD4 cell count in the beginning of the study, as well as age in Y5. The data reinforce the screening for kidney diseases with novel biomarkers, especially syndecan-1, as an important strategy for a timely diagnostic and therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Fanconi syndrome is a rare disease of generalized proximal tubule dysfunction which can be acquired secondary to certain medications, including tenofovir, a commonly used hepatitis B treatment. Signs and symptoms of ensuing renal wasting can be severe but vague, leading to potentially avoidable invasive investigations and delays in diagnosis. We present a case of a 62-year-old female with chronic hepatitis B on tenofovir treatment who was found to have subacute weakness, anorexia, and weight loss. She underwent extensive investigations including computed tomography (CT) imaging, bronchoscopy, upper and lower endoscopy, and psychiatric evaluation. Finally, persistent electrolyte derangements led to urine studies, which demonstrated acquired Fanconi syndrome secondary to tenofovir. After discontinuing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and starting tenofovir alafenamide, her symptoms resolved and her renal function recovered. This case illustrates the importance of maintaining clinical suspicion for tenofovir-induced Fanconi syndrome, given the common use of tenofovir as first-line hepatitis B treatment and the availability of less nephrotoxic alternatives.

Abstract
People living with HIV (PLWH) who are immune nonresponders (INRs) are at greater risk of comorbidity and mortality than are immune responders (IRs) who restore their CD4+ T cell count after antiretroviral therapy (ART). INRs have low CD4+ T cell counts (<350 c/μL), heightened systemic inflammation, and increased CD4+ T cell cycling (Ki67+). Here, we report the findings that memory CD4+ T cells and plasma samples of INRs from several cohorts are enriched in gut-derived bacterial solutes p-cresol sulfate (PCS) and indoxyl sulfate (IS) that both negatively correlated with CD4+ T cell counts. In vitro PCS or IS blocked CD4+ T cell proliferation, induced apoptosis, and diminished the expression of mitochondrial proteins. Electron microscopy imaging revealed perturbations of mitochondrial networks similar to those found in INRs following incubation of healthy memory CD4+ T cells with PCS. Using bacterial 16S rDNA, INR stool samples were found enriched in proteolytic bacterial genera that metabolize tyrosine and phenylalanine to produce PCS. We propose that toxic solutes from the gut bacterial flora may impair CD4+ T cell recovery during ART and may contribute to CD4+ T cell lymphopenia characteristic of INRs.

Abstract
The study aimed to determine the prevalence and associated factors of microalbuminuria among patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Infectious Disease Control Center of Princess Marina Hospital, a Tertiary Clinic in Gaborone, Botswana. The risk factors of microalbuminuria were determined by comparing the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of patients with the presence of microalbuminuria or normoalbuminuria. In total, 297 randomly selected HIV-infected patients were included in the analysis. The mean age of the study participants was 48.6 years, with the majority of patients (60.9%) being females. The study participants were largely well-controlled both immunologically and virologically, with 283/297 (95.3%) and 280/297 (94.3%), having CD4 counts of more than 200 cells/mm3 and undetected viral load (<400 copies/mL), respectively. The prevalence of microalbuminuria was found to be 46.5%. Microalbuminuria was associated with the duration of exposure to a regimen containing tenofovir [P <0.001, odds ratio = 1.137, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.073-1.205] and a history of diabetes mellitus (P = 0.044, odds ratio = 9.260, 95% CI = 1.058-81.06). Sociodemographic characteristics and other clinical factors were not associated with microalbuminuria. There is a need to carry out prospective studies among HIV- infected patients with microalbuminuria to determine the short- and long-term cardiovascular morbidity and mortality outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced kidney disease is an emerging problem in people living with HIV despite sustained viral suppression. METHODS We performed a prospective cohort study to identify people living with HIV with advanced kidney disease according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria and to assess disease progression over a 48-week period following the offer of targeted multidisciplinary management. RESULTS From our cohort of 3090 individuals, 55 (1.8%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.31-2.25) fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Most were male (83.6%), and the median (interquartile range [IQR]) age was 58 (53.25-66.75) years. Nadir CD4 T-cell count was 135.5 (IQR 43.5-262.75) cells/μl, current CD4 T-cell count was 574 (IQR 438.5-816) cells/μl, and 96% had maintained HIV viral suppression. The most frequent comorbidity was arterial hypertension (85.5%). Inadequate antiretroviral dose was detected in three individuals (5.5%), and drug-drug interactions were recorded in eight (14.5%), mainly involving the use of cobicistat (n = 5 [9%]). Four individuals (7%) required modification of their concomitant treatment. Seven (13%) had to start or resume follow-up with a nephrologist. Nine participants (16.4%) experienced an improvement in kidney disease stage, three individuals (5.5%) underwent renal transplantation, and one (2%) started haemodialysis. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that a multidisciplinary approach, including a critical review of treatment and evaluation of specific requirements, could be useful for anticipating drug-drug interactions and toxicities and for reducing death and hospitalization in people living with HIV with advanced kidney disease.

Abstract
Objectives: A participatory qualitative study exploring women’s experiences of ageing with HIV in London, United Kingdom. The research considered how the concept of ‘community’ was relevant to women’s experiences and what constructions of ‘community’ could be discerned in the experiences, accounts given and discourses employed by older women living with HIV. Methods: The research presented in this article was conducted as a PhD study between 2015 and 2019. The study was structured in multiple and overlapping phases, and adopted a feminist and participatory approach. The methods used in the research were as follows: participatory literature review, participatory creative workshops, policy review and stakeholder interviews, life story interviews, and a participatory analysis workshop. Results: Eighteen women living with HIV aged over 50 participated in creative workshops and fourteen women in life story interviews. Women’s experiences of ageing with HIV are shaped by intersecting identities, community responses, and personal connections. Ageing with HIV brings challenges, added to and augmented by other difficulties women face in their lives, but women draw on individual and community assets in order to adapt, cope and thrive. Belonging to a community of women living with HIV and a broader community of people living with HIV created a vital space of safety, in which women found support, advice, and meaning. Conclusions: Women ageing with HIV countered the ‘violence of invisibility’ through forming community with other women living with HIV, rejecting stigma, and enacting a personal form of advocacy through care for others.

Apolipoprotein-1 risk variants and associated kidney phenotypes in an adult HIV cohort in Nigeria. Kidney Int 2021; 100:146-154.

Abstract
HIV-positive adults are at risk for various kidney diseases, and apolipoprotein 1 (APOL1) high-risk genotypes increase this risk. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and ethnic distribution of APOL1 risk genotypes among a cohort of HIV-positive Nigerian adults and explore the relationship between APOL1 risk variant status with albuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). We conducted a cross-sectional study among 2 458 persons living with HIV who attended an HIV clinic in northern Nigeria and had received antiretroviral therapy for a minimum of six months. We collected two urine samples four-eight weeks apart to measure albumin excretion, and blood samples to measure eGFR and determine APOL1 genotype. The frequency of APOL1 high-risk genotype was 6.2%, which varied by ethnic group: Hausa/Fulani (2.1%), Igbo (49.1%), and Yoruba (14.5%). The prevalence of microalbuminuria (urine/albumin creatinine ratio 30- 300 mg/g) was 37%, and prevalence of macroalbuminuria (urine/albumin creatinine ratio over 300 mg/g) was 3%. The odds of microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria were higher for participants with the APOL1 high-risk genotype compared to those carrying the low-risk genotype ([adjusted odds ratio 1.97, 95% confidence interval 1.37-2.82] and [3.96, 1.95-8.02] respectively). APOL1 high-risk genotype participants were at higher risk of having both an eGFR under 60 ml/min/1.73m2 and urine/albumin creatinine ratio over 300 mg/g (5.56, 1.57-19.69). Thus, we found a high proportion of HIV-positive, antiretroviral therapy-experienced, and largely virologically suppressed adults had microalbuminuria. Hence, although the high-risk APOL1 genotype was less prevalent than expected, it was strongly associated with some level of albuminuria.

Fiseha T, Gebreweld A. Renal function in a cohort of HIV-infected patients initiating antiretroviral therapy in an outpatient setting in Ethiopia. PLoS One 2021; 16:e0245500. [PMID: 33481839 PMCID: PMC7822244 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0245500] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2020] [Accepted: 12/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim To evaluate the prevalence and associated factors of abnormal renal function among Ethiopian HIV-infected patients at baseline prior to initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) and during follow-up. Methods We conducted a retrospective observational cohort study of HIV infected patients who initiated ART at the outpatient ART clinic of Mehal Meda Hospital of North Shewa, Ethiopia from January 2012 to August 2018. Demographic and clinical data were abstracted from the medical records of patients. Renal function was assessed by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation. Univariate and multivariate analysis were conducted to determine the factors associated with abnormal renal function at baseline and during follow-up. Results Among 353 patients, 70 (19.8%) had baseline eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73m2 and 102 (28.9%) had eGFR = 60–89.9 ml/min/1.73m2. Factors associated with baseline renal impairment (eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73m2) included female sex (AOR = 3.52, CI 1.75–7.09), CD4 count < 200 cells/mm3 (AOR = 2.75, CI 1.40–5.42), BMI < 25 Kg/m2 (AOR = 3.04, CI 1.15–8.92), low hemoglobin (AOR = 2.19, CI 1.16–4.09) and high total cholesterol (AOR = 3.15, CI 1.68–5.92). After a median of 3.0 years of ART, the mean eGFR declined from 112.9 ± 81.2 ml/min/1.73m2 at baseline to 93.9 ± 60.6 ml/min/1.73m2 (P < 0.001). The prevalence of renal impairment increased from 19.8% at baseline to 22.1% during follow-up. Of 181 patients with baseline normal renal function, 49.7% experienced some degree of renal impairment. Older age (AOR = 3.85, 95% CI 2.03–7.31), female sex (AOR = 4.18, 95% CI 2.08–8.40), low baseline CD4 (AOR = 2.41, 95% CI 1.24–4.69), low current CD4 count (AOR = 2.32, 95% CI 1.15–4.68), high BMI (AOR = 2.91, 95% CI 1.49–5.71), and low hemoglobin (AOR = 3.38, 95% CI 2.00–7.46) were the factors associated with renal impairment during follow-up. Conclusion Impaired renal function was common in HIV-infected patients initiating ART in an outpatient setting in Ethiopia, and there appears to be a high prevalence of renal impairment after a median ART follow-up of 3 years. There is a need for assessment of renal function at baseline before ART initiation and regular monitoring of renal function for patients with HIV during follow-up.

Abstract
Advances in antiretroviral therapy (ART) have made it possible for persons with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) to live a near expected life span, without progressing to AIDS or transmitting HIV to sexual partners or infants. There is, therefore, increasing emphasis on maintaining health throughout the life span. To receive optimal medical care and achieve desired outcomes, persons with HIV must be consistently engaged in care and able to access uninterrupted treatment, including ART. Comprehensive evidence-based HIV primary care guidance is, therefore, more important than ever. Creating a patient-centered, stigma-free care environment is essential for care engagement. Barriers to care must be decreased at the societal, health system, clinic, and individual levels. As the population ages and noncommunicable diseases arise, providing comprehensive healthcare for persons with HIV becomes increasingly complex, including management of multiple comorbidities and the associated challenges of polypharmacy, while not neglecting HIV-related health concerns. Clinicians must address issues specific to persons of childbearing potential, including care during preconception and pregnancy, and to children, adolescents, and transgender and gender-diverse individuals. This guidance from an expert panel of the HIV Medicine Association of the Infectious Diseases Society of America updates previous 2013 primary care guidelines.

Abstract
Background In developing countries, both opportunistic infections and chronic diseases account a high HIV-associated mortality and morbidity. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) associated with HIV infection has got increased attention in sub-Saharan Africa as a result of the high HIV prevalence and due to the late diagnosis and initiation of HAART. Thus, this study was conducted to assess CKD and associated factors among HIV patients on HAART in Ethiopia. Methods A hospital-based cross-sectional study with a secondary data review was conducted on 336 on HIV/AIDS patients on HAART from February to July 2017 at University of Gondar Referral Hospital. The study participants were selected using a systematic random sampling technique. Socio-demographic and clinical data were collected using a semi-structured questionnaire at their follow-up date with interview and chart review. Three to five milliliters of venous blood and five milliliters of urine specimen were collected for serum creatinine and urine albumin determination, respectively. Data were entered into SPSS version 20 for analysis. Glomerular filtration rate was estimated using the CKD-EPI estimator. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression was employed and p-value <0.2 and < 0.05, respectively, was considered statistically significant. Results The prevalence of CKD on the study participants was 54 (16.1%) (95% CI, 12.2–20.4%). By stage, about 27 (8.0%) had stage 1 (persistent proteinuria with eGFR ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m2), 16 (4.8%) had stage 2 (persistent proteinuria with eGFR of 60–89.9 mL/min/1.73 m2), 6 (1.8%) had stage 3 (eGFR 30–59.9 mL/min/1.73 m2 with or without proteinuria) and 5 (1.5%) had stage 5 ((kidney failure), eGFR<15mL/min/1.73 m2 with or without proteinuria). With multivariate logistic regression analysis, being male (AOR=2.05 (1.03–4.09), p=0.04), being merchant (AOR=2.91 (1.00–8.48), p=0.049) and having viral load≥1000 copies/mm3 (AOR=3.1 (1.38–7.00), P<0.01) were significantly associated with CKD. Conclusion The prevalence of CKD among HIV patients on HARRT is high. Being male, merchant and having viral load ≥1000 copies/mm3 were associated factors of CKD. Patients should be regularly monitored and screened for early diagnosis and management of CKD. Those patients who have being merchant with high viral load and male patients should require close monitoring.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-based regimens have been associated with impaired kidney function and loss of bone mineral density among patients living with HIV (PLWH). We assess the association between TDF exposure and the odds of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoporotic fracture in HIV patients. METHODS Demographics, administrative claims, and pharmacy dispensation were extracted from the Veterans Affairs Informatics and Computing Infrastructure (VINCI). Patients were categorized based on TDF utilization. Incidence rates for patients exposed and unexposed to TDF were calculated per 1000 patient-years (PYs). Logistic regression was used to calculate the odds of outcome after adjusting for baseline and clinical characteristics. RESULTS The sample included 4,630 PLWH who were currently exposed to TDF and 1,181 who were never exposed to TDF for the CKD analyses. For fracture analyses, the sample included 6,883 PLWH who were currently exposed to TDF and 1,951 who were never exposed to TDF. In adjusted models, current TDF exposure was associated with increased odds of CKD compared to never having been exposed (OR: 1.48, 95% CI: 1.18-1.85). Odds of fracture were 2.32 times higher for patients who were currently on a TDF regimen (OR: 2.32, 95% CI: 1.58-3.42) compared to those who had never been exposed to TDF in adjusted models. CONCLUSIONS In a large cohort of US veterans with HIV, current exposure to TDF was associated with a 48% higher odds of CKD and a greater than two-fold increase in the odds of osteoporotic fracture.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since the developmentof combined antiretroviral therapy (cART), HIV-associated mortality and the incidence of HIV-associated end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) has decreased. However, in the United States, an increase in non-HIV-associated kidney diseases within the HIV-positive population is expected. AREAS COVERED In this review, the authors highlight the risk factors for kidney disease within an HIV-positive population and provide the current recommendations for risk stratification and for the monitoring of its progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD), as well as, treatment. The article is based on literature searches using PubMed, Medline and SCOPUS. EXPERT OPINION The authors recommend clinicians (1) be aware of early cART initiation to prevent and treat HIV-associated kidney diseases, (2) be aware of cART side effects and discriminate those that may become more nephrotoxic than others and require dose-adjustment in the setting of eGFR ≤ 30ml/min/1.73m2, (3) follow KDIGO guidelines regarding screening and monitoring for CKD with a multidisciplinary team of health professionals, (4) manage other co-infections and comorbidities, (5) consider changing cART if drug induced toxicity is established with apparent eGFR decline of ≥ 10ml/min/1.73m2 or rising creatinine (≥0.5mg/dl) during drug-drug interactions, and (6) strongly consider kidney transplant in appropriately selected individuals with end stage kidney failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has been associated with increased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We investigated the impact of HCV cure on CKD in HIV-positive persons in the EuroSIDA study. METHODS HIV-positive persons with known HCV status and at least three serum creatinine measurements after 1/1/2004 were compared based on time-updated HCV-RNA and HCV treatment: anti-HCV-negative, spontaneously cleared HCV, chronic untreated HCV, successfully treated HCV, and HCV-RNA positive after HCV treatment. Poisson regression compared incidence rates of CKD [confirmed (>3 months apart) eGFR <60 ml/min per 1.73 m] between HCV strata. RESULTS Fourteen thousand, seven hundred and fifty-four persons were included; at baseline 9273 (62.9%) were HCV-Ab negative, 696 (4.7%) spontaneous clearers, 3021 (20.5%) chronically infected, 922 (6.2%) successfully treated and 842 (5.7%) HCV-RNA positive after treatment. During 115 335 person-years of follow-up (PYFU), 1128 (7.6%) developed CKD; crude incidence 9.8/1000 PYFU (95% CI 9.2-10.4). After adjustment, persons anti-HCV negative [adjusted incidence rate ratio (aIRR) 0.59; 95% CI 0.46-0.75] and spontaneous clearers (aIRR 0.67; 95% CI 0.47-0.97) had significantly lower rates of CKD compared with those cured whereas persons chronically infected (aIRR 0.85; 95% CI 0.65-1.12) and HCV-RNA positive after treatment (aIRR 0.71; 95% CI 0.49-1.04) had similar rates. Analysis in those without F3/F4 liver fibrosis using a more rigorous definition of CKD showed similar results. CONCLUSION This large study found no evidence that successful HCV treatment reduced CKD incidence. Confounding by indication, where those with highest risk of CKD were prioritized for HCV treatment in the DAA era, may contribute to these findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Medium-grade proteinuria (100-500 mg/g creatinine) is common among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) but is often undetected or ignored. This prospective, observational cohort study examined medium-grade proteinuria as a risk factor for markers of chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS Quantitative urine samples were collected from 241 PLWHA without known renal disease at baseline between January 2009 and February 2011 and at follow-up 240 weeks later. Multivariate analysis was performed to assess medium-grade proteinuria as a risk factor for incident markers of CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 , albuminuria, phosphaturia). RESULTS Incident markers of CKD were identified in 33 patients (14%), of whom 24 (74%) had medium-grade proteinuria at baseline. Of these, 22 even had proteinuria of < 200 mg/g creatinine. Multivariate analysis showed an adjusted relative risk (aRR) of 2.4 for patients with baseline medium-grade proteinuria to develop signs of CKD. Age was identified as an additional independent predictor. By testing for interaction, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-independent proteinuria was strongly associated with incident CKD markers (aRR = 12.1). CONCLUSION Medium-grade proteinuria of 100-500 mg/g creatinine is both frequent in PLWHA and a significant risk factor for developing markers of CKD, especially in the absence of TDF. Relevant risk seems to be associated with proteinuria levels as low as 100-200 mg/g creatinine. Current guidelines recommend specific action for proteinuria exceeding 135-200 mg/g but still will miss a relevant number of PLWHA potentially at risk for CKD. An even lower cut-off to trigger nephrological work-up and potentially renoprotective interventions appears to be indicated.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) affects over 36 million people worldwide. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) is expanding and improving HIV viral suppression, resulting in increasing exposure to drugs and drug interactions. Polypharmacy is a common complication as people are living longer on ART, increasing the risk of drug toxicities. Polypharmacy is related not only to ART exposure and medication for opportunistic infections, but also to treatment of chronic lifestyle diseases. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequent in HIV and is commonly the result of sepsis, dehydration and drug toxicities. Furthermore, HIV itself increases the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Drug treatment is often complicated in people living with HIV because of a greater incidence of AKI and/or CKD compared to the HIV-negative population. Impaired renal function affects drug interactions, drug toxicities and importantly drug dosing, requiring dose adjustment. This review discusses ART and its nephrotoxic effects, including drug–drug interactions. It aims to guide the clinician on dose adjustment in the setting of renal impairment and dialysis, for the commonly used drugs in patients with HIV.

Transpl Infect Dis 2020; 22:e13253. [PMID: 31994821 DOI: 10.1111/tid.13253] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2019] [Revised: 01/09/2020] [Accepted: 01/12/2020] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND HIV-positive kidney transplant (KT) recipients have similar outcomes to HIV-negative recipients. However, HIV-positive patients with advanced kidney disease might face additional barriers to initiating the KT evaluation process. We sought to characterize comorbidities, viral control and management, viral resistance, and KT evaluation appointment rates in a cohort of KT evaluation-eligible HIV-positive patients. METHODS We included patients seen between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2015, at a primary care HIV clinic who met KT evaluation eligibility by an estimated glomerular filtration rate ≤20 mL/min/1.73 meters2 or dialysis dependence. The primary outcome was a documented appointment for KT evaluation. RESULTS Of 3735 patients evaluated at the HIV primary clinic during the study period, 42 (1.6%) were KT evaluation-eligible patients. The median age was 47 years, 77% were male, and 95%, black. Median CD4 count was 328 cells/mm3 (IQR 175-461). Among the 63% percent with antiretroviral therapy (ART) prescription, 40% had viral loads >200 copies. Among patients with HIV resistance profiles (50%, n = 21), 52% had resistance to at least one class of ART. A majority (60%, n = 25) were scheduled for KT evaluation appointment, but of those, only 8% (n = 2) had evidence of appointments before dialysis dependence. Those without appointments had more schizophrenia (29% vs 4%, P = .02), resistance (78% vs 33%, P = .04), ART prescription (76% vs 48%, P = .04), and more kidney disease of unknown etiology (53% vs 8%, P = .02). CONCLUSION Kidney transplant evaluation-eligible HIV-positive patients had a high rate of evaluation appointments, but a low rate of preemptive evaluation appointments. Schizophrenia and viral resistance disproportionally affected patients without evaluation appointments. These data precede the recommendation for universal ART for all HIV+ patients, regardless of CD4 count and viral load, and must be interpreted in the context of this limitation.

Abstract
We compared access to a kidney transplantation (KT) waiting list (WL) and to KT between people living with HIV (PLHIV) and HIV-uninfected controls. Using the REIN (the national Renal Epidemiology and Information Network registry), we included all PLHIV initiating dialysis in France throughout 2006-2010 and HIV-uninfected controls matched for age, sex, year of dialysis initiation, and the existence of a diabetic nephropathy. Patients were prospectively followed until December 2015. We used a competitive risk approach to assess the cumulative incidence of enrollment on WL and of KT, with death as a competing event (subdistribution hazard ratio adjusted on comorbidities, asdHR). There were 255 PLHIV in the REIN (median age 47 years) of whom 180 (71%) were also found in the French Hospital Database on HIV (FHDH-ANRS CO4) including 126 (70%) known to be on antiretroviral therapy with HIV viral suppression (VS). Five years after dialysis initiation, 65%, and 76%, of treated PLHIV with VS, and of HIV-uninfected controls were enrolled on a WL (asdHR 0.68; 95% CI 0.50-0.91). Access to KT was also less frequent and delayed for treated PLHIV with VS (asdHR 0.75, 95% CI, 0.52-1.10). PLHIV continue to face difficulties to access KT.

Association of HIV Suppression With Kidney Disease Progression Among HIV-Positive African Americans With Biopsy-Proven Classic FSGS. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr 2019; 79:639-643.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the era of combined antiretroviral therapy, classic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is the most common histopathological finding in African American HIV-positive patients with kidney disease. We sought to determine whether HIV suppression is associated with lower risk of progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) among HIV-positive African Americans with biopsy-confirmed classic FSGS. METHODS HIV-positive African Americans who underwent kidney biopsies at a single tertiary hospital between January 1996 and June 2011 were confirmed as having classic FSGS by the presence of segmental glomerulosclerosis without features of HIV-associated nephropathy. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to examine the independent association of viral suppression (HIV-RNA < 400 copies per milliliter at biopsy) with time to progression to ESRD. RESULTS Of the 55 HIV-positive African Americans with classic FSGS, 26 had suppressed viral loads at the time of biopsy. Compared to viremic patients, those who were virally suppressed had a significantly higher mean CD4 cell count (452 vs. 260 cell/mm, respectively; P = 0.02) and median estimated glomerular filtration rate (53.5 vs 35.5 mL/min/1.73 m, respectively; P = 0.002). Adjusting for sex and baseline CD4 cell count, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and proteinuria, those with HIV-RNA levels <400 copies per milliliter at baseline had a 75% lower risk of progressing to ESRD (hazard ratio = 0.25; 95% CI: 0.07 to 0.88) during a median follow-up time of 2.70 years (interquartile range: 0.80-5.15 years). CONCLUSIONS HIV suppression is associated with significantly lower risk of progression to ESRD among HIV-infected African Americans with classic FSGS, supporting the potential role of combined antiretroviral therapy for this histopathology in addition to HIV-associated nephropathy among HIV-positive individuals.

Abstract
Background and objectives The HIV-associated renal diseases represent a spectrum. Indian data on this is sparse. This study was undertaken to find out the prevalence and clinicopathological spectrum of renal involvement in HIV among antiretroviral therapy (ART) naïve patients (Group 1) and among those on ART (Group 2). Methods Systematic random sampling was undertaken to select 109 patients each from virology outpatient department (VOPD) and ART centre of a tertiary care hospital. They were screened and further investigated if renal involvement was found. Results Renal involvement was present in 25/109 (22.94%) and 15/109 (13.76%) patients of Groups 1 and 2, respectively. Among patients of Groups 1 and 2, 9/24 (37.5%) and 2/13 (15.4%), respectively, had clinically significant proteinuria, but none in the nephrotic range. Statistically significant relationships of renal involvement were observed with CD4 count <100/μl and with low BMI. Of the patients of Group 2, 20% of those on a tenofovir-based regimen had renal involvement with tubular changes, while only 4.6% of those on other regimens had renal involvement. This difference was statistically significant (p<0.05; OR=5.25). Conclusion Renal involvement was less common among those on ART. Low CD4 count and body mass index (BMI) were associated with renal dysfunction. Patients on a tenofovir-based regimen had more renal involvement compared with not on a tenofovir-based regimen.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The risk of kidney dysfunction on the WHO recommended first line regimens containing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) without protease inhibitors (PI) remains unclear in Asian patients, especially those with low body weight. METHODS Using data collected in a multicenter clinical trial in Thailand and proportional hazard regression models, we compared the risk of a >25% estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) reduction in HIV naïve patients initiating TDF or zidovudine (AZT) containing non-PI regimen. RESULTS Of 640 patients included in the analysis, 461 (72%) received a TDF-containing regimen for a median 6.7 years and 179 (28%) an AZT-containing regimen for 6.5 years. The risk of a >25% eGFR reduction was not associated with treatment (HR 1.11, 95% CI 0.84-1.47, P = 0.46). In multivariate analysis, the risk of >25% eGFR reduction form baseline was associated with body weight at baseline (HR 2.12, 95% CI 1.48-3.02 for <48 kg patients and HR 1.64, 95% CI 1.20-2.25 for 48-59.9 kg patients, compared to those with >60 kg, P < 0.001) and hypertension (HR 4.03, 95% CI 2.0-8.0, P < 0.001). The effect of baseline weight on >25% eGFR reduction did not significantly vary with treatment (P = 0.27). CONCLUSIONS The risk of eGFR reduction was not higher on TDF- versus AZT-based non-PI regimens. Although the risk of eGFR reduction was greater for patients of lower body weight, this risk was not significantly increased by TDF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become one of the most frequent non-infectious comorbidities in the aging HIV-infected population on long-standing combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). METHODS We conducted a retrospective, cross-sectional study including HIV-infected adult patients attending our HIV outpatient clinic during the years 2017 and 2018 to assess prevalence and associated risk factors of CKD. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was measured by Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation. CKD was diagnosed and classified according to the National Kidney Foundation guidelines. Logistic regression was employed to identify factors associated with CKD. RESULTS We enrolled 2339 HIV-infected patients (91% were Caucasian) with a mean age of 45.3 years and a mean current CD4 lymphocyte count of 531 cells/mm3. CKD was diagnosed in 311 subjects (13.3%). Overall, 294 (12.6%) patients had albuminuria, 108 (4.6%) had eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, and 78 (3.3%) had albuminuria plus eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2. Stages 4-5 of CKD were documented in 23 (1%) cases. Age greater than 50 years, male gender, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, high triglycerides, nadir CD4 cell count < 200 cells/mm3, current use of tenofovir disoproxyl fumarate (TDF) and of TDF plus a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitors were independently associated with CKD, while current use of abacavir plus one integrase inhibitor was associated with a reduced risk of CKD. CONCLUSION There is a significant prevalence of CKD among HIV-infected persons in association with both traditional and HIV-specific risk factors, requiring a careful periodic monitoring of renal function in these patients.

Abstract
Background: The burden of the people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is largely borne by communities in Sub-Saharan Africa. The rate of kidney disease is increasing amongst HIV patients and occurs more often in patients with advanced stage of the disease with lower CD4 counts and associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence and predictors of chronic kidney disease (CKD) amongst HIV patients on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) at the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital, Calabar. Materials and methods: This was a cross-sectional study that was carried out over a 4-month period from May to August 2018. In all, a total of 118 patients with HIV on HAART were recruited into the study in a consecutive manner and their serum creatinine measured with the calculation of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Other data collected were sex, age, weight, height, body mass index (BMI), waist hip ratio (WHR), packed cell volume, CD4 count etcetera. Data collected were inputted and analyzed with SPSS version 18, and statistical significance was taken to be p<0.05. Results: There were more females (69.5%) amongst the HIV participants and the prevalence of CKD was 15.3%. The risk factors seen to be associated with CKD were lower levels of CD4 count below 200 cells/µl, lower PCV, weight, BMI, and eGFR. Also, higher levels of WHR and creatinine were associated with CKD. Factors directly correlated with CKD were weight, BMI and CD4 count levels, while creatinine level was inversely correlated with CKD. However, a logistic regression model showed only creatinine to be a predictor of CKD. Conclusion: HIV patients on antiretroviral therapy, mainly the highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) have a relatively high prevalence of CKD of 15.3% and high level of serum creatinine was predictive of CKD in the logistic regression model in our study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increased cell-free DNA levels are associated with poor health outcomes, and cell-free mitochondrial DNA (cf-mtDNA) has proinflammatory properties. Given that HIV infection is associated with chronic inflammation, we investigated the relationship between cf-mtDNA and proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the context of HIV infection. We also optimized separation of cell-free plasma from blood. SETTING In this retrospective cross-sectional study, we collected blood, demographic information, and clinical data from 99 HIV-infected and 103 HIV-uninfected adults and children enrolled in the Children and Women: AntiRetrovirals and Markers of Aging pan-Canadian (CARMA) cohort. METHODS Plasma was separated from blood by 14,000g centrifugation followed by 0.45-μm filtration to remove cells and platelets. Cf-mtDNA and cell-free nuclear DNA were quantified simultaneously via monochrome, multiplex, quantitative polymerase chain reaction. IL-6 was measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Higher speed centrifugation and filtration was necessary to isolate truly cell-free plasma. Higher cf-mtDNA levels were univariately associated with HIV infection, elevated IL-6 levels, younger age, higher white blood cell count, and higher cell-free nuclear DNA levels but not blood mtDNA content or HIV viral load. In a multivariable model, HIV infection (P < 0.001), elevated IL-6 (P = 0.021), younger age (P < 0.001), and higher blood nDNA levels (P = 0.007) were independently associated with higher cf-mtDNA. CONCLUSIONS People living with HIV have higher levels of circulating cf-mtDNA than their uninfected peers. Increased levels of inflammatory marker IL-6 are associated with elevated cf-mtDNA, independent of the effect of HIV infection. Higher cf-mtDNA levels and white blood cell count in younger people may reflect higher cell turnover in that population.

Abstract
Background: Renal involvement in HIV patients is relatively common and quite broad. However, despite an increasingly large number of HIV patients in Asia, systematic studies of renal involvement are lacking. Objectives: The study was carried out to delineate the clinical spectrum of renal disease in HIV/AIDS patients hospitalised in a tertiary care centre. Patients and Methods: A total of 510 consecutive hospitalised HIV/AIDS with age >18years were included in the study. Detailed demographic, clinical and laboratory data including urinalysis was obtained from all participants. Results: Electrolyte disorders were seen in 71% of patients, with the most frequent being hyponatremia (61%). Acute renal failure was seen in 15.8% and CKD was found in 13% of HIV patients. Dipstick proteinuria of grade ≥1+ was seen in 147 patients (29% of total). CD4 count had a significant positive correlation with creatinine clearance, hyponatremia and total leukocyte count, and significant negative correlation with duration of disease and proteinuria. Conclusion: Electrolyte disorders and renal involvement are quite common in HIV/AIDS patients from India. Prompt diagnosis and management is required as their presence carry higher morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
In nearly 40 years since human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) first emerged, much has changed. Our understanding of the pathogenesis of HIV infection and its effect on the cells within each kidney compartment has progressed, and the natural history of the disease has been transformed. What was once an acutely fatal illness is now a chronic disease managed with oral medications. This change is largely due to the advent of antiretroviral drugs, which have dramatically altered the prognosis and progression of HIV infection. However, the success of antiretroviral therapy has brought with it new challenges for the nephrologist caring for patients with HIV/acquired immune deficiency syndrome, including antiretroviral therapy-induced nephrotoxicity, development of non-HIV chronic kidney disease, and rising incidence of immune-mediated kidney injury. In this review, we discuss the pathogenesis of HIV infection and how it causes pathologic changes in the kidney, review the nephrotoxic effects of select antiretroviral medications, and touch upon other causes of kidney injury in HIV cases, including mechanisms of acute kidney injury, HIV-related immune complex glomerular disease, and thrombotic microangiopathy.

Abstract
This study investigates the impact of severe renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of cabotegravir, an investigational HIV-1 integrase inhibitor. This was a phase I, open-label, parallel-group, multicenter study conducted in 8 participants with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance <30 mL/min; no renal replacement therapy) and 8 healthy participants (creatinine clearance >90 mL/min; 2 women/group; 6 men/group) matched for sex, age (±10 years), and body mass index (±25%). Participants received a single 30-mg oral cabotegravir tablet to determine total and unbound plasma cabotegravir concentrations. Arithmetic and geometric least squares means were calculated, and cabotegravir noncompartmental pharmacokinetic parameters were compared using geometric least squares mean ratios with 90% confidence intervals. Safety was assessed throughout the study. Geometric least squares mean ratios (90% confidence intervals) were 0.97 (0.84-1.14) for area under the plasma concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinity, 1.01 (0.87-1.17) for maximum observed plasma concentration, 1.31 (0.84-2.03) for unbound cabotegravir 2 hours after dosing, and 1.51 (1.19-1.92) for unbound cabotegravir 24 hours after dosing. All adverse events were grade 1, except grade 3 lipase elevation in a participant with renal impairment. Severe renal impairment did not impact plasma cabotegravir exposure, and cabotegravir may be administered without dose adjustment in renal impairment among patients not receiving renal replacement.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection has traditionally been considered an absolute contraindication for transplantation because immunosuppression will accelerate the disease progression and increase mortality. New antiretroviral agents have given rise to new perspectives and transplantation practices. Now renal transplantation is the gold standard treatment for end-stage renal disease in HIV-infected patients, but increased rejection and toxicity rates and compliance with treatment are important issues. Therefore, patient selection and follow-up should be done carefully in this patient group. Here we present a 51-year-old, male, HIV-infected patient who was diagnosed with HIV at his routine serologic investigation at 2015. Highly active antiretroviral therapy was initiated. One haplotype-matched kidney transplantation from a deceased donor was performed on October 19, 2016. Induction therapy was not administered, and the immunosuppressive regimen included tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and prednisolone. After 26 months, serum creatinine was 1.1 mg/dL and proteinuria 0.1 g/day. There was no development of donor-specific antibodies. The patient's current HIV viral load remains undetectable (and had been the entire time post-transplantation) while his CD4+ T-cell count currently is 543/mm3.

Abstract
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become epidemic in HIV/AIDS patients across Western and Eastern countries. HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) has been consistently reported in studies from North America, Europe and African countries. However, studies from Asian countries are very sparse and differ strikingly in histological spectrum of renal disease, particularly in presence of HIVAN. Objectives: The study was carried out to in a teaching hospital from India to delineate the histological spectrum of renal disease and detect presence HIVAN in those with significant proteinuria (≥1gm/day). Patients and Methods: Urine analysis was done in 510 consecutive hospitalised HIV/AIDS patients after screening 640 such patients with age >18years. Patients with dipstick proteinuria ≥1+ were subjected to 24-hour urinary protein estimation. Renal biopsy was done in 10 patients with proteinuria ≥1gm/day. Results: Dipstick proteinuria ≥1+ was present in 29% patients. In patients undergoing kidney biopsy, the most frequent glomerular lesion was mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (30%) followed by HIVAN (20%). Tubulo-interstitial lesions were seen in 60% of biopsies. Pooled analysis of all the available kidney biopsy series from India revealed prevalence of HIVAN to be 16.5%. Conclusion: Contrary to the popular belief, HIVAN appears to be a common entity in this part of world too. High degree of clinical suspicion is required as diagnosis of HIVAN caries higher morbidity and mortality. Moreover, an early diagnosis and timely management can improve prognosis in such patients.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and osteoporotic fractures in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients utilizing data within the Veteran's Affairs (VA) Administration system.Methods: A retrospective cohort study utilizing VA system claims (January 2000-December 2016) were extracted from the VA Informatics and Computing Infrastructure (VINCI). Cases included Veterans with an ICD-9/10 for HIV who had at least one prescription for a complete antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen. Two non-HIV controls were exactly matched on race, sex, month, and year of birth. All patients were followed until the earliest of the following: first incidence of the outcome (identified based on diagnosis codes or laboratory data), last date of VA activity, death, or December 31, 2016. Relative risks (RR) and odds ratios (ORs) were estimated from multivariable Poisson regression models (CVD and osteoporotic fractures) and multivariable logistic regression models (CKD), respectively. Models were adjusted for demographic factors/comorbidities.Results: A total of 79,578 patients (26,526 HIV and 53,052 non-HIV) met all study criteria. The average age was 49.3 years, 38% were black, 32% were white, and 97% were male for both the HIV and control cohorts. The adjusted models demonstrated that HIV was associated with a 78% increased rate of CKD (OR = 1.78, 95% CI = 1.68-1.89), a 32% increased risk of CVD (RR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.28-1.37), and a 38% increased risk of fractures (RR = 1.38, 95% CI = 1.23-1.56) compared to non-HIV controls.Conclusions: The risk/rate of the three outcomes were significantly higher in HIV patients compared to controls.

Abstract
Background Central venous catheter (CVC) haemodialysis (HD) to implement renal replacement therapy is the preferred choice in the urgent setting. Unfortunately, CVC placement is associated with multiple complications including nosocomial bloodstream infections. There is a paucity of data on the prevalence and pattern of pathogenic organisms in haemodialysed HIV-infected versus non-HIV-infected patients with end-stage kidney disease. Method and results We undertook a retrospective study of 228 patients who were dialysed using a CVC at a tertiary referral hospital in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Seventy-eight patients (34.2%) complicated with bacteraemia and sepsis requiring antibiotics. Removal of the catheter was necessary in 58 patients (74.0%). The most common organisms isolated were Staphylococcus aureus (30.8%), Staphylococcus epidermidis (24.4%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (15.4%). There was no statistically significant difference between HIV-infected and non-infected patients with regards to infection rate, time interval from insertion of CVC to infection and final outcome. However, HIV-infected patients took longer to recover; 54.3% of non-infected patients versus 10.3% HIV-infected patients had their sepsis controlled within one week. Acidosis, hypotension, line malfunction and line discharge were infrequent signs of sepsis. Fever, rigors and raised white cell count occurred in over 80.0% of patients. Conclusion The infection rate in CVC HD is not more frequent in HIV-infected patients, provided that CD4+ count is ≥ 200 cells/µL and the patient is virologically suppressed. Outcomes following intravenous antibiotic and removal of the CVC are similar in HIV-infected and non-infected patients but response to treatment is slower in HIV-infected patients. A high index of suspicion is needed in detecting CVC-related bacteraemia.

BMC Nephrol 2018; 19:333. [PMID: 30463531 PMCID: PMC6249759 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-018-1130-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2017] [Accepted: 11/05/2018] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Kidney diseases have emerged as significant cause of morbidity and mortality in HIV subject on antiretroviral therapy (ART). In Ghana, routine follow up of HIV positive clients is by estimation of serum creatinine and urea levels. Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) is not routinely calculated and proteinuria is not routinely checked. This study sought to investigate the kidney profiles of adult HIV/AIDS patients being managed on ART at the Cape Coast Teaching Hospital (CCTH), Ghana. METHODS A hospital-based analytical cross sectional study with a retrospective component was conducted using systematic sampling method to recruit HIV/AIDS who visited the ART clinic. A total of 440 participants of both sexes aged 18 years and above, confirmed as HIV/AIDS positive and on ART were involved in this study. Blood and urine samples were collected from all subjects and the levels of serum creatinine and urea and proteinuria were estimated and eGFR calculated using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equations. Data analyses were performed using Stata version 13 software (Stata Corp, Texas USA). RESULTS The mean age (years) of participants was 45.5 years (±11.6) with 288 (65.4%) being on Tenofovir based ART regimen. The mean eGFR was found to decrease from 112.4 ml/min/1.73 m at baseline, to 103.4 ml/min/1.73 m after 6 months on ART and to a mean of 99.4 ml/min/1.73 m at recruitment into this study. Factors which were found to be associated with having eGFR < 60 included age, gender and CD4 count though not statistically significant. Patients > 45 years had the highest odds with OR 2.0 (95% CI: 0.8-5.1), females had higher odds with OR 1.5 (95% CI: 0.5-5.2), and those with CD4 count > 350 had OR of 0.4 (95% CI 0.2-1.3). A total of 30.9% of the participants had proteinuria at recruitment. TDF based ART regimen had no statistically significant effect on serum creatinine and urea levels. CONCLUSION Estimated GFR decreased after 6 months among patients on ART despite normal serum creatinine and urea levels. This finding suggests that clients in care at HIV/ART clinics in Ghana may benefit from routine estimation of GFR and proteinuria.

Abstract
The remarkable improvement of the outcome of HIV infection came with the price of substantial toxicity of some antiretrovirals. The first molecules used to treat HIV included an important nephrotoxicity. Zalcitabine, stavudine and didanosine can induce severe lactic acidosis. Lactate production is enhanced and the renal capacity to regulate pH is overwhelmed. However, this side effect is not due to a direct dysfunction of the kidneys. Zalcitabine was withdrawn from the market because of this risk. Indinavir, a protease inhibitor, is soluble only in very acidic solutions. Consequently, the small fraction that is excreted in the urine precipitates and can be responsible for uro-nephrolithiasis, leukocyturia, cristalluria, obstructive acute kidney failure, and acute or chronic interstitial nephritis. This is the reason why indinavir is almost not prescribed nowadays, even if it is still marketed. In addition to the direct nephrotoxicity of some antiretrovirals, anti-HIV treatment also includes a toxicity which pathophysiology is not completely elucidated. This nephrotoxicity is the consequence of organ accelerated ageing and of an increased vascular risk. Kidney vascularization (from renal arteries to capillaries) is essential to kidney function and all cardiovascular risks are also renal risks. It is now clearly established that combined antiretroviral treatment increases the vascular risk. A better comprehension of the links between HIV infection, its treatment and very long-term kidney risk is needed to improve the complex management of patients who have now cumulated several decades of HIV infection and treatment with various toxicities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become one of the common comorbid conditions affecting the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) population. Human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals are at increased risk of developing CKD, and they are likely to experience faster progression of renal dysfunction compared with HIV-uninfected individuals. Albuminuria represents not only kidney damage but also manifests metabolic syndrome and vascular dysfunction. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, cross-sectional study involving 2135 HIV-infected individuals in Japan to test the prevalence of CKD and proteinuria/albuminuria. Urine sample was analyzed by both dipstick test and albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) assay. Chronic kidney disease was classified according to the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (K/DOQI) and Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guidelines. The diagnostic performance of dipstick test to detect albuminuria (ACR ≥30 mg/g) was evaluated. RESULTS The prevalence of CKD, evaluated by K/DOQI and KDIGO guidelines, was 15.8% and 20.4%, respectively. Age, total cholesterol level, prevalence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hepatitis C infection tended to increase, whereas levels of hemoglobin, serum albumin, and CD4 cell count tended to decrease as CKD risk grades progressed. Proteinuria and albuminuria were present in 8.9% and 14.5% of individuals, respectively. Dipstick test ≥1+ to detect albuminuria had an overall sensitivity of 44.9% and specificity of 97.2%. CONCLUSIONS The KDIGO guideline may enable physicians to capture HIV-infected patients at increased risk more effectively. The sensitivity of dipstick proteinuria to detect albuminuria is so poor that it may not serve as an alternative in HIV-infected individuals.

Abstract
Doravirine is a novel nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor in development for use with other antiretroviral therapies to treat human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. Doravirine metabolism predominantly occurs via cytochrome P450 3A with <10% of elimination occurring via the renal pathway. As severe renal impairment can alter the pharmacokinetics (PK) of metabolically eliminated drugs, the effect of severe renal impairment on doravirine PK was assessed. A single dose of doravirine 100 mg was administered to subjects aged 18 to 75 years with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of <30 ml/min/1.73 m2 (severe renal impairment group) and healthy controls with an eGFR of ≥80 ml/min/1.73 m2, matched to the mean of the renal impairment group by age (±10 years) and weight (±10 kg). Doravirine plasma concentrations were determined at regular intervals, and safety was monitored throughout. The geometric mean ratios (90% confidence interval) for severe renal impairment/healthy subjects were 1.43 (1.00, 2.04), 1.38 (0.99, 1.92), and 0.83 (0.61, 1.15) for the plasma doravirine area under the curve from zero to infinity (AUC0-∞), plasma concentration at 24 h postdose (C24), and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), respectively. Doravirine was generally well tolerated in both groups. Based on the overall efficacy, safety, and PK profile of doravirine, the minor effect of severe renal impairment on doravirine PK observed in this study is not considered clinically meaningful. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under identifier NCT02641067.).

Abstract
The prevalence of noncommunicable diseases, including chronic kidney disease (CKD), continues to increase worldwide, and mortality from noncommunicable diseases is projected to surpass communicable disease-related mortality in developing countries. Although the treatment of CKD is expensive, unaffordable, and unavailable in many developing countries, the current structure of the health care system in such countries is not set up to deliver comprehensive care for patients with chronic conditions, including CKD. The World Health Organization Innovative Care for Chronic Conditions framework could be leveraged to improve the care of CKD patients worldwide, especially in resource-limited countries where high cost, low infrastructure, limited workforce, and a dearth of effective health policies exist. Some developing countries already are using established health systems for communicable disease control to tackle noncommunicable diseases such as hypertension and diabetes, therefore existing systems could be leveraged to integrate CKD care. Decision makers in developing countries must realize that to improve outcomes for patients with CKD, important factors should be considered, including enhancing CKD prevention programs in their communities, managing the political environment through involvement of the political class, involving patients and their families in CKD care delivery, and effective use of health care personnel.

Abstract
Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has dramatically increased the survival of HIV-infected patients from Western countries reducing the incidence of opportunistic infections and AIDS-related malignancies, and improving the patients' quality of life compared with the pre-HAART era. HIV is thus now considered in the West as a chronic disease, with the majority of HIV-infected patients successfully reaching an optimal immune and virological outcome a few months after starting HAART. However, this switch from acute to chronic disease has been accompanied by an increased incidence of chronic kidney disease (CKD), reported in up to 60% of HIV-infected patients. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is considered to play a significant role in the development of CKD in these patients. It has been proposed that tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), a prodrug formulation able to providing lower systemic and renal drug exposure, could potentially contribute to reduce the development of CKD in HAART-treated patients. On the other hand, the pharmacokinetics of some components of HAART can be significantly altered in HIV-infected patients developing CKD. TDF- or TAF-based antiretroviral regimens should be avoided in patients with a creatinine clearance of less than 50 or 30 mL/min, respectively. This review focuses on the pharmacokinetic changes of novel antiretroviral drugs in HIV-infected patients with renal impairment or requiring renal replacement therapy, and provides some suggestions on how to change drug doses in these clinical settings.

Abstract
A review of literature published regarding non-tenofovir antiretroviral agents causing renal adverse effects was conducted. The literature involving renal adverse effects and antiretroviral therapy is most robust with protease inhibitors, specifically atazanavir and indinavir, and includes reports of crystalluria, leukocyturia, nephritis, nephrolithiasis, nephropathy and urolithiasis. Several case reports describe potential nephropathy (including Fanconi syndrome) secondary to administration of abacavir, didanosine, lamivudine and stavudine. Case reports documented renal events such as acute renal failure, nephritis, proteinuria and renal stones with efavirenz administration. Regarding rilpivirine, a small increase of serum creatinine levels (SCr) was found in clinical trials; however, the clinical significance and impact on actual renal function is unknown. The integrase strand transfer inhibitors and enfuvirtide have a relatively safe renal profile, although studies have shown dolutegravir and raltegravir cause mild elevations in SCr without an impact on actual renal function. This is similar to the reaction observed with cobicistat, the pharmacokinetic enhancer frequently given with elvitegravir.

Abstract
Purpose of Review The prevalence of end-stage organ disease is increasing among HIV-infected (HIV+) individuals. Individuals with well-controlled HIV on antiretroviral therapy (ART), without active opportunistic infections or cancer, and with specified minimum CD4 cell counts are appropriate transplant candidates. Infectious disease clinicians can improve access to transplantation for these patients and optimize management pre- and post-transplant. Recent Findings Clinical trials and registry-based studies demonstrate excellent outcomes for select HIV+ kidney and liver transplant recipients with similar patient and graft survival as HIV-uninfected patients. Elevated allograft rejection rates have been observed in HIV+ individuals; this may be related to a dysregulated immune system or drug interactions. Lymphocyte-depleting immunosuppression has been associated with lower rejection rates without increased infections using national registry data. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection has been associated with worse outcomes, however improvements are expected with direct-acting antivirals. Summary Solid organ transplantation should be considered for HIV+ individuals with end-stage organ disease. Infectious disease clinicians can optimize ART to avoid pharmacoenhancers, which interact with immunosuppression. The timing of HCV treatment (pre- or post-transplant) should be discussed with the transplant team. Finally, organs from HIV+ donors can now be considered for HIV+ transplant candidates, within research protocols.

Abstract
BACKGROUND HIV-infected (HIV+) donor organs can be transplanted into HIV+ recipients under the HIV Organ Policy Equity (HOPE) Act. Quantifying HIV+ donor referrals received by organ procurement organizations (OPOs) is critical for HOPE Act implementation. METHODS We surveyed the 58 USA OPOs regarding HIV+ referral records and newly discovered HIV+ donors. Using data from OPOs that provided exact records and CDC HIV prevalence data, we projected a national estimate of HIV+ referrals. RESULTS Fifty-five (95%) OPOs reported HIV+ referrals ranging from 0 to 276 and newly discovered HIV+ cases ranging from 0 to 10 annually. Six OPOs in areas of high HIV prevalence reported more than 100 HIV+ donor referrals. Twenty-seven (47%) OPOs provided exact HIV+ referral records and 28 (51%) OPOs provided exact records of discovered HIV+ cases, totaling 1450 HIV+ referrals and 39 discovered HIV+ donors in the prior year. These OPOs represented 67% and 59% of prevalent HIV cases in the USA; thus, we estimated 2164 HIV+ referrals and 66 discovered HIV+ cases nationally per year. CONCLUSIONS OPOs reported a high volume of HIV+ referrals annually, of which a subset will be medically eligible for donation. Particularly in areas of high HIV prevalence, OPOs require ongoing support to implement the HOPE Act.

Abstract
In Sub-Saharan Africa, the prevalence of HIV-associated kidney diseases is as high as 53.3%. Combined antiretroviral treatment (cART), especially tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), is known to be nephrotoxic. We undertook this cross-sectional study conducted in 2015 at the Regional Hospital Limbe in the Southwest Region of Cameroon to determine the prevalence of renal dysfunction and its correlates among treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients on TDF and treatment-naïve patients. In April 2016, a follow-up was performed on those who had been treatment-naïve and were started on cART after enrolment in the study. We compared 119 patients on TDF-containing regimens with 47 treatment-naïve patients. Proteinuria was significantly more prevalent, and creatinine was significantly higher among treatment-naïve patients than among those on treatment (52.2% versus 26.1%; P = 0.003 and P = 0.009, respectively). The proportion of patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/minute was significantly higher among treatment-naïve patients than among those on TDF treatment (40.4% versus 24.4%; P = 0.041). Treatment-naïve patients displayed an improvement in creatinine levels and eGFR after 6 months of treatment. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the impact of TDF on renal parameters in Cameroon. TDF appears to be safe and does not appear to be a significant cause of renal impairment. However, renal parameters should be monitored regularly, as recommended by the guidelines.

Abstract
This single-center cross-sectional study determined the prevalence and factors associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in HIV-1-infected Asian patients at the largest HIV clinic in Japan. HIV-1-infected patients who visited the clinic between September and December 2016 were analyzed. CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate of <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 or proteinuria ≥1+, observed at least over three months. A logistic regression model was used to estimate the effects of various variables on CKD. The study included 1,990 patients; with 97% Asians, 34% aged of ≥50 years, and 94% had HIV-1 load <50 copies/ml. The median time from HIV-1 diagnosis to study enrollment and duration of ART were 9.1 years (IQR4.8–14.2) and 7.35 years (IQR3.28–12), respectively. CKD and ESRD were diagnosed in 256 (13%) and 9 (0.5%) patients, respectively. The prevalence of CKD was 18.6% for age 50–59, 28.5% for 60–69, and 47% for over 70. Older age, heavier body weight, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and longer duration of ART, but not duration of TDF exposure, were associated with CKD. The traditional risk factors, rather than HIV-1-related variables, were associated with CKD, suggesting the importance of management of such comorbidities in maintenance of renal function.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been shown to be a poor prognostic factor in HIV patients. This study aimed to identify risk factors in HIV-infected patients with early decline in renal function or an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 90 mL/min/1.73 m2. The study was retrospectively conducted at Panyananthaphikkhu Chonprathan Medical Center, Thailand. The inclusion criteria were HIV-infected adult patients who were treated at the hospital's HIV clinic and whose eGFR levels at the first visit had been evaluated. Eligible patients were categorized according to their eGFR level being lesser or greater than 90 mL/min/1.73 m2. Multivariate logistic analysis was performed to evaluate the association of risk factors with an eGFR of less than 90 mL/min/1.73 m2. There were 301 HIV-infected patients included in the study. Of those, 89 patients (29.57%) had an eGFR of less than 90 mL/min/1.73 m2. Age was the only significant risk factor associated with an eGFR of less than 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 with an adjusted odds ratio of 1.072 (95% confidence interval: 1.015-1.132). Age of over 37 years predicted an eGFR of less than 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 as a risk factor in HIV-infected patients, with a sensitivity of 80.9% and specificity of 34.91%. Age was independently associated with eGFRs of less than 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 in HIV-infected patients. Close monitoring of eGFR should be performed in HIV-infected patients aged over 37 years.

Abstract
Prevalence of kidney disease (KD) is increasing among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected population. Different factors have been related, varying on different published series.The objectives were to study prevalence of KD in those patients, its evolution, and associated risk factors.An observational cohort study of 1596 HIV-positive patients with cross-sectional data collection in 2008 and 2010 was conducted. We obtained clinical and laboratory markers, and registered previous or current treatment with tenofovir (TDF) and indinavir (IDV). The sample was divided according to estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) by modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) equation. Group 1: eGFR ≤60 mL/min/1.73 m; group 2: eGFR >60 mL/min/1.73 m.Among the patients, 76.4% were men, mean age (SD) 45 ± 9 years, time since diagnose of HIV 14 ± 7 years, and 47.2% of the patients received previous treatment with TDF and 39.1% with IDV. In 2008, eGFR ≤60: 4.9% (91.4% of them in chronic kidney disease [CKD] stage 3, eGFR 59-30 mL/min); this group was older, presented higher fibrinogen levels, and more patients were treated previously with TDF and IDV. In 2010, eGFR ≤60: 3.9% (87.1% stage 3 CKD). The 2.4% of cohort showed renal improvement and 1.3% decline of renal function over time. The absence of hypertension and treatment with TDF were associated with improvement in eGFR. Increased age, elevated fibrinogen, decreased albumin, diabetes mellitus, hyperTG, and worse virological control were risk factors for renal impairment.The HIV-positive patients in our area have a CKD prevalence of 4% to 5% (90% stage 3 CKD) associated with ageing, inflammation, worse immune control of HIV, TDF treatment, and metabolic syndrome.
