Abstract
Women living with HIV (WLWH) may be at higher risk for osteoporosis and fragility fractures. However, limited prospective data describe long-term trajectories of bone mineral density (BMD) in WLWH versus women without HIV. Thus, in this prospective study, we aimed to compare 10-year change in areal BMD (aBMD) between WLWH (n = 49; 36.8 ± 8.8 years; 96% pre/perimenopausal) and HIV-negative women (population-based controls; n = 49; 41.9 ± 9.2 years; 80% pre/perimenopausal). In an exploratory analysis, we compared fracture history between WLWH and controls. Outcomes were lumbar spine (L1 to L4), total hip, and femoral neck aBMD at baseline and follow-up, which occurred at 13 and 10 years in WLWH and controls, respectively. We fit multivariable regression models to compare baseline and 10-year change in aBMD between groups, adjusting for osteoporosis risk factors. Within WLWH, we examined associations between aBMD and HIV-related factors, including combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) duration. WLWH were diagnosed 6.5 ± 3.7 years before baseline, 80% were on cART for 241 ± 142 weeks, and 49% had HIV plasma viral load <40 copies/mL. Before and after adjusting for osteoporosis risk factors, baseline and 10-year change in aBMD did not differ between WLWH and controls at any site. At baseline, more WLWH than controls reported a history of low-trauma fracture (30% versus 10%, p < 0.05) and major osteoporotic fracture (17% versus 4%, p < 0.05). During follow-up, the number of WLWH and controls with incident fragility fracture was not significantly different. Lifetime cART duration and tenofovir use were not associated with aBMD 10-year percent change. Higher CD4 count at baseline was positively associated with femoral neck aBMD 10-year percent change. Long-term aBMD change in this small WLWH cohort paralleled normal aging, with no evidence of influence from cART use; however, these results should be interpreted with caution given the small sample size. Larger cohort studies are needed to confirm these findings. © 2023 The Authors. JBMR Plus published by Wiley Periodicals LLC on behalf of American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Our study aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of low bone mineral density (BMD) among HIV/AIDS patients in China. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional analysis of HIV-infected patients from October 2017 to August 2020. Demographic information, clinical data, and serum parameters were obtained. Univariable and multiple logistic regression analyses were performed. RESULTS A total of 1143 patients were included. In the ART-naive group, low BMD was diagnosed in 19.2% (117/608), including osteoporosis in 1.0% (6/608) and osteopenia in 18.3% (111/608). In the ART group, low BMD was diagnosed in 32.2% (231/717), including osteoporosis in 2.4% (17/717) and osteopenia in 29.8% (214/717). Using multivariate analysis, we identified age older than 50 years, body mass index < 18.5 kg/m2, and treatment based on tenofovir disoproxil fumarate as independent risk factors for low BMD. Low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was a protective factor for low BMD. Among low BMD participants, the most common number of low BMD sites for a patient to have was 4 (33.6%, 117/348). CONCLUSION We confirmed a high prevalence of low BMD and osteoporosis in HIV/AIDS patients, and we identified age older than 50 years, low body mass index, and a treatment based on tenofovir disoproxil fumarate as risk factors for low BMD. Low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol had a protective effect against low BMD. Among low BMD patients, patients most commonly had 4 sites with low BMD, which has been associated with fracture risk. In addition, bone changes to L1 can present before low BMD diagnosis and may be a potentially useful indicator that low BMD is developing.

Abstract
We discuss recent evidence supporting the hypothesis that sarcopenia is an emerging health concern among people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) because of increasing life expectancy and HIV- and treatment-related comorbidities. We also hypothesize that combined exercise at higher intensity has a key role in managing sarcopenia in this population because it directly (increases muscle strength and stimulates hypertrophy) and indirectly (prevents mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and persistent inflammation) counteracts sarcopenia hallmarks.

Abstract
The number of people with HIV (PWH) aged 50 years or older continues to steadily increase. The convergence of age- and HIV-related complications in these individuals presents a challenge for both patients and clinicians alike. New findings continue to emerge, as numerous researchers evaluate the combined impact of these two factors on quality of life, physiological systems, and mental health in PWH. Since its first occurrence in 2009, the International Workshop on HIV and Aging has served as a multidisciplinary meeting to share basic biomedical data, clinical trial results, treatment strategies, and epidemiological recommendations, toward better understanding and outcomes among like-minded scientific professionals. In this article, we share a selection of key findings presented in plenary talks at the 11th Annual International Workshop on HIV and Aging, held virtually from September 30, 2020 to October 2, 2020. We will also address the future directions of HIV and aging research, to further assess how the aging process intersects with chronic HIV.

Incident bone fracture and mortality in a large HIV cohort outpatient study, 2000-2017, USA. Arch Osteoporos 2021; 16:117. [PMID: 34337687 DOI: 10.1007/s11657-021-00949-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2020] [Accepted: 05/03/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
UNLABELLED We evaluated the association of bone fracture with mortality among persons with HIV, controlling for sociodemographic, behavioral, and clinical factors. Incident fracture was associated with 48% greater risk of all-cause mortality, underscoring the need for bone mineral density screening and fracture prevention. PURPOSE/INTRODUCTION Low bone mineral density (BMD) and fracture are more common among persons with HIV (PWH) than those without HIV infection. We evaluated the association of bone fracture with mortality among PWH, controlling for sociodemographic, behavioral, and clinical factors. METHODS We analyzed data from HIV Outpatient Study (HOPS) participants seen at nine US HIV clinics during January 1, 2000, through September 30, 2017. Incident fracture rates and post-fracture mortality were compared across four calendar periods. Cox proportional hazards analyses determined factors associated with all-cause mortality among all participants and those with incident fracture. RESULTS Among 6763 HOPS participants, 504 (7.5%) had incident fracture (median age = 47 years) and 719 (10.6%) died. Of fractures, 135 (26.8%) were major osteoporotic (hip/pelvis, wrist, spine, arm/shoulder). During observation, 27 participants with major osteoporotic fractures died (crude mortality 2.97/100 person-years [PY]), and 48 with other site fractures died (crude mortality 2.51/100 PY). Post-fracture, age- and sex-adjusted all-cause mortality rates per 100 PY decreased from 8.5 during 2000-2004 to 1.9 during 2013-2017 (P<0.001 for trend). In multivariable analysis, incident fracture was significantly associated with all-cause mortality (Hazard Ratio 1.48, 95% confidence interval 1.15-1.91). Among 504 participants followed post-fracture, pulmonary, kidney, and cardiovascular disease, hepatitis C virus co-infection, and non-AIDS cancer, remained independently associated with all-cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS Incident fracture was associated with 48% greater risk of all-cause mortality among US PWH in care, underscoring the need for BMD screening and fracture prevention. Although fracture rates among PWH increased during follow-up, post-fracture death rates decreased, likely reflecting advances in HIV care.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to compare risk adjusted matched cohorts of Charcot neuroarthropathy patients who underwent osseous reconstruction with and without diabetes. The 2 groups were matched based on age, body mass index, hypertension, history of end-stage renal disease, and peripheral arterial disease. Bivariate analysis was performed for preoperative infection, location of Charcot breakdown, and post reconstruction outcomes, in patients with a minimum of 1 year follow-up period. Through bivariate analysis, presence of preoperative ulceration (p = .0499) was found to be statistically more likely in the patients with diabetes; whereas, delayed osseous union (p = .0050) and return to ambulation (p ≤ .0001) was statistically more likely in patients without diabetes. The nondiabetic Charcot patients were 17.6 folds more likely to return to ambulation (odds ratio [OR] 17.6 [95% confidence interval {CI} {3.5-87.6}]), and 16.4 folds more likely to have delayed union (OR 16.4 [95% CI {1.9-139.6)]). Subanalysis compared well-controlled diabetic and nondiabetic Charcot neuroarthropathy patients for same factors. Multivariate analysis, in the subanalysis, found return to ambulation was 15.1 times likely to occur in the nondiabetic CN cohort (OR 15.1 [95% CI 1.3-175.8]) compared to the well-controlled diabetic CN cohort.

Abstract
Although there is extensive literature around the biologic correlations of neurocognitive function in HIV/AIDS, less is known about the impact in everyday living. We conducted a systematic review of the association of neurocognitive impairment with everyday life functions in people with HIV on antiretroviral therapy. We specifically focused on attention, executive function, processing speed, and the central executive component of the working memory. We considered 3 domains of everyday functions: (1) autonomy, (2) decision making and adherence to treatment, and (3) quality of life and psychologic wellbeing. The relationship between neurocognitive impairment and mental health was examined, given its correlation with everyday life functions. Results indicate that people with HIV do experience problems with autonomy of daily living (especially if aged older than 50 years) and with decision making, and neurocognitive impairment plays a role in this regard. Psychologic wellbeing is associated with executive function and processing speed. These patients may also have a reduced quality of life, but the relationship between quality of life and cognition is uncertain or could be mediated by other factors. Neurocognitive impairment correlates with depression and anxiety; however, the relationship of cognitive performance with apathy is still controversial.

Abstract
Background Although low bone mineral density (BMD) is associated with an increased risk of fracture, few studies have assessed fracture rates in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Methods The occurrence of subclinical fractures in patients with HIV was assessed. Pearson’s chi-square test was used to analyze the relationship between subclinical fractures and related factors. Results Fifty patients with HIV were included, among whom 11 were diagnosed with subclinical fractures. These 11 patients had a mean body mass index of 24.127 ± 3.482 kg/m2, smoked a mean of 142.091 ± 3.482 cigarettes/month, drank a mean of 61.545 ± 13.026 mL/day of alcohol, had a mean CD4+ T cell count of 247.727 ± 181.679 cells/mm3, had a mean duration of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) of 4.27 ± 0.786 years, and had a mean BMD of the third lumbar spine of 0.810 ± 0.063 g/cm3. The AIDS duration and BMD of the third lumbar spine were significantly associated with subclinical fractures. The BMD of the third lumbar spine was negatively correlated with subclinical fractures. Conclusion A significant negative correlation was found between the BMD of the third lumbar spine and subclinical fractures.

Abstract
The progression of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome is delayed in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, long-term ART is associated with adverse effects. Osteoporosis is one of the adverse effects and is a multifactorial systemic skeletal disease associated with bone fragility and an increased risk of fracture. We performed a longitudinal, comprehensive, nested case-control study to explore the effect of ART on the risk of osteoporosis in 104 osteoporotic and 416 non-osteoporotic patients with HIV infection at their average age about 29 years old in Taiwan. Patients with history of ART, current exposure to ART, higher cumulative defined daily doses (DDDs), or higher ART adherence were at a higher risk of osteoporosis (p < 0.05). Patients receiving nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI)-containing regimen (zidovudine-lamivudine combination, lamivudine-abacavir combination, and abacavir alone) and protease inhibitor (PI)-containing regimen (lopinavir-ritonavir combination, ritonavir, and atazanavir) had a higher risk of osteoporosis (p < 0.05). Especially, patients receiving high doses of the PIs lopinavir-ritonavir combination had an increased risk of osteoporosis (p < 0.05). In conclusion, history of ART, current exposure to ART, higher cumulative DDDs, and higher ART adherence were associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis. Furthermore, NRTI- and PI-containing regimens and high doses of PIs lopinavir-ritonavir combination may be associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis in patients with HIV infection in Taiwan.

Abstract
The survival of patients with HIV has greatly improved, due to Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART). However, long-term HIV survivors often develop serious bone abnormalities, possibly due to the interplay of osteoblasts, osteoclasts, HIV ad ART. We evaluated in a nation-wide study in Taiwan the effect of Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) on overall mortality in HIV patients with osteoporosis or fractures. Enrollment period was between 1998 and 2011. Patients with osteoporosis or fractures before the HIV infection, and those with less than 14 days CHM use, were excluded. This left 498 patients, 160 CHM users, 338 without CHM. Univariate Kaplan-Meier and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to compare the overall mortality in these 2 groups. Due to the nature of Chinese medicine, CHMs inevitably varied. We therefore also used rule mining and network analysis to determine which major CHM clusters were prescribed to the patients. CHM users had a much Lower mortality (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.43, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.24–0.77, p < 0.005) and higher survival (p = 0.004, log-rank test). Although the CHMs greatly varied, network analysis identified one main cluster of strongly related CHM combinations (Chuan-Xiong-Cha-Tiao-San (CXCTS), Gan-Cao (GC; Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch.), Liu-He-Tang (LHT), Huang-Qin-Tang (HQT), Jia-Wei-Ping-Wei-San (JWPWS), and Dang-Gui-Long-Hui-Wan (DGLHuiW)). CHM as an additional treatment strongly improves overall survival in HIV-infected patients with osteoporosis and fractures.

Change in Circulating Undercarboxylated Osteocalcin (ucOCN) Is Associated With Fat Accumulation in HIV-Seropositive Women. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr 2021; 86:e139-e145. [PMID: 33399313 PMCID: PMC7933097 DOI: 10.1097/qai.0000000000002617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2020] [Accepted: 12/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone mineral density loss and fat accumulation are common in people living with HIV. The bone-derived hormone, undercarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOCN) regulates fat metabolism. We investigated the relationship between ucOCN change and body fat change among perimenopausal/postmenopausal HIV-seronegative and HIV-seropositive women on long-term antiretrovirals. METHODS Perimenopausal and postmenopausal women enrolled in the Women's Interagency HIV Study MSK substudy underwent trunk and total fat assessment by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at study enrollment (index visit) and again 2 years later. Circulating ucOCN and cOCN were also measured at the index and 2-year visits. The correlation between the 2-year change in ucOCN and cOCN and change in trunk and total fat was assessed as a function of HIV serostatus using linear regression modeling. Multivariate linear regression assessed the association between ucOCN and cOCN change and total and trunk fat change after adjusting for sociodemographic variables. Linear regression models restricted to HIV-seropositive women were performed to examine the contributions of HIV-specific factors (index CD4 count, viral load, and combined antiretroviral therapy use) on the associations. RESULTS Increased ucOCN over the 2-year follow-up was associated with less trunk and total fat accumulation in models adjusting for HIV serostatus and participants sociodemographics, whereas there was no association with cOCN and the fat parameters. None of the HIV-specific factors evaluated influenced the association between ucOCN and fat parameters. CONCLUSION The current study suggests that increases in ucOCN are associated with decreased fat accumulation in HIV-seronegative and HIV-seropositive postmenopausal women on long-term antiretroviral therapy.

Long-term trabecular bone score and bone mineral density changes in Chinese antiretroviral-treated HIV-infected individuals. Arch Osteoporos 2021; 16:41. [PMID: 33624129 PMCID: PMC9675940 DOI: 10.1007/s11657-021-00890-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2020] [Accepted: 01/06/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
UNLABELLED This is the first 5-year analysis among persons with HIV (PWH) that reports both trabecular bone score (TBS), which is a novel index that estimates bone microarchitecture, and bone mineral density (BMD) over time to evaluate the long-term impact of antiretroviral therapy (ART) on bone health. PURPOSE HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy (ART) have been associated with decreased bone mineral density (BMD). This study aims to evaluate long-term changes in trabecular bone score (TBS), a novel index that estimates bone microarchitecture, and BMD among Chinese persons with HIV (PWH) treated with ART. METHODS We conducted a retrospective chart review of adult PWH at a large tertiary care hospital in China. Patients who had a DXA scan prior to ART and at least one follow-up DXA after ART initiation were included. Subgroup analyses examined the TBS and BMD changes in patients who switch from a non-TDF-containing regimen to one containing TDF, as compared to those who did not switch. RESULTS Four hundred fifty-nine PWH were included. Among 68 patients ≥ 50 years, 13 patients (19.1%) had a normal BMD but partially degraded or degraded TBS. The mean percent decrease in lumbar spine (LS) BMD nadired at 48 weeks after ART initiation and then gradually improved. Percent decrease in femoral neck (FN) and total hip (TH) BMD nadired at 96 weeks and remained stably low thereafter. After switch to a TDF-containing regimen, only percent change in TH BMD was significant (-3.2%, p = 0.006). In the regression analyses, switch to a TDF-containing regimen was not associated with long-term change in TBS or BMD. CONCLUSION This is the first study among PWH to evaluate the long-term impact of ART on TBS and BMD. At baseline, approximately 20% of patients had a normal BMD but impaired bone microstructure based upon TBS. For patients with 5 years of exposure to ART, there is a stabilization of TBS and BMD after initial nadir in the first 144 weeks. However, FN BMD, TH BMD, and TBS remained low at 5 years relative to baseline.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tenofovir (TDF) has a detrimental effect on bone mineral density (BMD), while nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with a lower BMD. OBJECTIVE To help understand the mutual effects of NAFLD and TDF on BMD, this study was designed to explore the potential association between NAFLD and BMD in HIV-infected patients receiving long-term TDF-based antiretroviral therapy (ART). METHODS A total of 89 HIV-infected patients who received TDF-based ART for more than three years were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. We measured BMD using an ultrasonic bone density apparatus, and liver ultrasonography was performed to determine the severity of the fatty liver. The association of NAFLD with BMD was examined using multiple logistic regression analyses. RESULTS Patients with NAFLD showed a worse BMD status than those without NAFLD. The incidence rates of osteopenia (42.86% versus 25.93%) and osteoporosis (17.14% versus 3.70%) were significantly higher in HIV-infected patients with NAFLD than in those without NAFLD. After multivariate adjustment, the odds ratio (OR) for patients with NAFLD exhibiting a worse BMD status compared with those without NAFLD was 4.49 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.42, 14.15). CONCLUSION Based on our results, NAFLD was significantly associated with a worse BMD status, including osteopenia and osteoporosis, in HIV patients after receiving long-term TDF-based ART. Furthermore, we may want to avoid using TDF for ART in HIV-infected patients with NAFLD.

Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2020; 530:597-602.

Abstract
The current antiretroviral therapy cannot cure the patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) due to the existence of latently infected cells capable of virus production from harboring proviral DNA. MazF is an ACA nucleotide sequence-specific endoribonuclease derived from Escherichia coli. The conditional expression of MazF by binding of HIV-1 Tat to the promoter region of a MazF-expression vector has previously been shown to selectively inhibit HIV-1 replication in acutely infected cells. The expression of MazF significantly suppressed tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-induced HIV-1 production and viral RNA expression in the HIV-1 latently infected cell line OM-10.1 transduced with the MazF-expression vector (OM-10.1/MFR). Moreover, the viability of OM-10.1/MFR cells decreased with increasing concentrations of TNF-α, whereas such decrease was not observed for HL-60 cells transduced with the MazF-expression vector (HL-60/MFR), the uninfected parental cell line of OM-10.1. TNF-α increased the expression of cleaved caspase-3 and cleaved poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase in OM-10.1/MFR cells, indicating that the cell death was caused by the induction of apoptosis. TNF-α-induced expression of MazF mRNA was detected in OM-10.1/MFR but not HL-60/MFR cells, suggesting that TNF-α-induced apoptosis of latently infected cells was due to the expression of MazF. Thus, the anti-HIV-1 gene therapy using the MazF-expression vector may have potential for the cure of HIV-1 infection in combination with suitable latency reversing agents through reducing the size of latently infected cells without viral reactivation.

Prevalence of and Risk Factors for Low Bone Mineral Density Assessed by Quantitative Computed Tomography in People Living With HIV and Uninfected Controls. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr 2020; 83:165-172.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low bone mineral density (BMD) has been described in people living with HIV (PLWH). We examined the prevalence of low BMD measured by quantitative computed tomography (QCT), a method that allows 3-dimensional volumetric density measures at the thoracic spine, in well-treated PLWH and uninfected controls and assessed risk factors for reduced BMD. METHODS Cross-sectional study including 718 PLWH from the Copenhagen Co-Morbidity in HIV infection (COCOMO) study and 718 uninfected controls matched on age and sex from the Copenhagen General Population Study (CGPS). Trabecular BMD was determined by QCT. RESULTS Median BMD was 144.2 mg/cm in PLWH vs. 146.6 mg/cm in controls (P = 0.580). HIV status was not associated with BMD in univariable or multivariable linear analyses. However, a higher prevalence of very low BMD (T-score ≤ -2.5) was found in PLWH (17.2% vs. 11.0% in controls, P = 0.003). In unadjusted analysis, HIV was associated with very low BMD (odds ratio 1.68 [95% confidence interval: 1.24-2.27], P = 0.001), but this association was not significant after adjusting for age, sex, smoking, alcohol, body mass index, physical activity, and ethnicity. Previous AIDS-defining disease was associated with lower BMD, but no other associations with HIV-specific variables were identified. CONCLUSION Using QCT, we found a higher prevalence of very low BMD in PLWH than in controls. However, HIV status was not independently associated with BMD indicating that traditional risk factors contribute to the difference in prevalence of very low BMD. Focus on improvement of lifestyle factors, especially in PLWH with previous AIDS-defining disease, may prevent very low BMD in PLWH.

Abstract
We assessed bone mineral density (BMD) in a cohort of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients after a median of 11 years of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) and evaluated the respective role of HIV infection and antiretroviral drugs (ARVs). A cross-sectional study of 162 participants (131 male) from the ANRS-C08 cohort was performed with bone dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans and renal assessment. The window of exposure to ARVs was defined as an exposure of more than six cumulative months during the last 3 years before the DXA evaluation to account for a cumulative exposure that could affect bone remodeling. The association with low BMD (Z-score < -2) was assessed by a multiple logistic regression model. The study population was 50 years (median), hepatitis C virus (HCV) (18%), and hepatitis B virus (HBV) (8%) coinfection with HIV-RNA <50 c/mL in 89%, median CD4 of 619/mm3. Prevalence of low BMD was 18% in males and 6% in females. The factors associated with a Z-score < -2 in males were uric acid renal loss [adjusted odds ratio (aOR): 6.1; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.2-31.5; p = .03], HCV coinfection (aOR: 4.0; 95% CI: 1.3-12.2; p = .02), and less frequent window of exposure to nevirapine (NVP) (aOR: 0.1; 95% CI: 0.02-0.6; p = .01). For the full study sample, there was a strong positive association between duration of exposure to NVP and lumbar spine Z-score (p = .004). HIV-positive patients exposed to long-term cART have a high incidence of low BMD. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitors did not seem to be associated with increased risk of low BMD, whereas NVP exposure appeared to have an independent positive association.

Abstract
There are limited data regarding long-term BMD changes over time among treatment-naïve people living with HIV (PLHIV) after initiating combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) in Asia. We aimed to study bone mineral density (BMD) changes among treatment-naïve PLHIV started treatment with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)- or non-TDF-containing regimen and HIV-uninfected controls in an Asian setting. The study was a five-year prospective study. BMD at lumbar spine (LS) (L1 to L4), total hip (TH), and femoral neck (FN) were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans at baseline, months 12, 24 and 60. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to explore factors associated with mean BMD ≥5% reduction after 5 years of cART. A total of 106 PLHIV (75 and 31 started TDF- and non-TDF-containing regimen, respectively) and 66 HIV-uninfected individuals were enrolled. The mean percent changes of BMD were significantly different longitudinally between TDF and non-TDF users (p<0.001 for LS, p = 0.006 for TH and p = 0.02 for FN). HIV-positive status and on TDF-containing regimen was independently associated with BMD loss ≥5% at month 60 (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 7.0, 95% confidence interval [95%CI] 2.3–21.0, P = 0.001 for LS; aOR 4.9, 95%CI 1.7–14.3, P = 0.003 for TH and aOR 4.3, 95%CI 1.6–11.2, P = 0.003 for FN) compared to HIV-uninfected individuals. In a multivariate model for PLHIV only, TDF use (vs. non-TDF, P = 0.005) and pre-treatment CD4+ count <350 cells/mm3 (vs. ≥350 cells/mm3, P = 0.02) were independently associated with ≥5% BMD loss in TH at month 60. Treatment-naïve PLHIV initiating treatment with TDF-containing regimen have higher BMD loss in a Thai cohort. TDF use and low pre-treatment CD4 count were independently associated with BMD loss at month 60 at TH. Earlier treatment initiation and interventions to prevent bone loss could improve skeletal health among PLHIV. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01634607

Abstract
To assess the efficacy of long-term calcium and vitamin D treatment on bone mineral density (BMD) in HIV+ patients on combined antiretroviral therapy (cART). A retrospective, single-center cohort study. Between March 2010 and July 2012, 268 HIV+ patients were screened for vitamin D and calcium deficiency. Those with proven vitamin D or calcium deficiency received supplementation according to a predefined protocol, and were offered further evaluation of BMD by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Calcium and vitamin D status and BMD were assessed at baseline (T0) and approximately one (T1) and 4-6 years (T2) later. Percentual change in BMD of the lumbar spine and hip was compared with reported rates of change in HIV+ patients on cART without standard calcium and vitamin D treatment. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and calcium deficiency was 46% and 43%, respectively. Thirteen percent of patients had secondary hyperparathyroidism at baseline. DEXA performed in patients with a deficiency revealed osteopenia in 40% and osteoporosis in 8% of patients. The expected long-term change in lumbar spine and hip BMDs at T2 was -0.7%, -1.5%, and -1.5%, respectively. The measured changes were +2.3%, -0.6%, and -0.6%, respectively. The difference between measured and expected rate of change was significant for the lumbar spine (3.0%, p < .05), but not for the hip. Long-term vitamin D and calcium supplementation improves lumbar spine BMD of HIV+ patients with osteopenia or osteoporosis and with proven calcium and/or vitamin D deficiencies. Screening and treatment are recommended to become part of regular care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND HIV-infected patients have lower bone mineral density and a higher incidence of fractures than the general population of the same age and sex. To assess the impact of antiretroviral (ARV) drugs exposure on the risk of osteoporotic fractures, we conducted a nested case-control study. METHODS Cases were individuals enrolled while ARV-naive, with a first prospectively recorded fracture between 2000 and 2010. Controls were randomly selected after matching for sex, age (±3 years), period of HIV diagnosis (<1997/≥1997), and clinical center. The risk of fracture was analyzed with conditional logistic regression models, using different ways to model ARV exposure. All exposure variables and potential confounders were included in multivariable models. RESULTS Among 861 reviewed cases, 261 fractures were osteoporotic and 254 of cases were matched to at least one control (376 controls). The median year of fracture diagnosis was 2007 (interquartile range 2004-2009): 49% of patients had been exposed to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and 82% to protease inhibitors (PIs). After taking into account the transmission group, AIDS status, geographic origin, body mass index, current smoking status, alcohol consumption, exposure to systemic glucocorticoids, and the period of enrollment, there was no association between the risk of fracture and exposure to TDF [odds ratio for cumulative exposure: 1.04 (0.86-1.27), similar results for ever-exposed subjects], to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, or to PIs [odds ratio for cumulative PI exposure: 1.02 (0.92-1.12)]. CONCLUSIONS We found no evidence of an excess risk of fracture after exposure to TDF or PIs. This has important implications for the debate concerning tenofovir alafenamide versus generic TDF.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Initial antiretroviral therapy (ART) causes loss of bone mineral density (BMD) over the first 1-2 years. Whether this loss continues with longer therapy is unclear. We determined changes in bone and spine BMD over 5 years in adults receiving immediate or deferred initial ART. METHODS In the Strategic Timing of Antiretroviral Therapy (START) BMD substudy, ART-naïve adults with CD4 counts > 500 cells/μL were randomized to immediate or deferred ART. Deferred group participants not yet on ART were offered ART after May 2015. Mean per cent changes in total hip and lumbar spine BMD (measured annually by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry) were compared between groups using longitudinal mixed models. Fracture rates were also compared between groups for all START participants. RESULTS Substudy participants (immediate group, n = 201; deferred group, n = 210; median age 32 years; 80% non-white; 24% female) were followed for a mean 4.5 years until December 2016. In the immediate group, > 96% used ART throughout. In the deferred group, 16%, 58% and 94% used ART at years 1, 3 and 5, respectively. BMD decreased more in the immediate group initially; groups had converged by year 3 at the spine and year 4 at the hip by intent-to-treat (ITT). BMD changes after year 1 were similar in the immediate group and in those off ART in the deferred group [mean difference: spine, 0.03% per year; 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.4, 0.4; P = 0.88; hip, -0.2% per year; 95% CI -0.7, 0.3; P = 0.37]. Fracture incidence did not differ significantly between groups (immediate group, 0.86/100 person-years versus deferred group, 0.85/100 person-years; hazard ratio 1.01; 95% CI 0.76, 1.35; P = 0.98). CONCLUSIONS Significant ART-induced bone loss slowed after the first year of ART and became similar to that in untreated HIV infection.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Most prospective studies of bone mineral density (BMD) in HIV-infected cohorts taking antiretroviral therapy (ART) have been of short duration, typically < 3 years. Such studies have reported short-term stable or increasing BMD. We assessed whether this BMD stability persists for > 10 years in middle-aged and older men established on ART. METHODS A 12-year, prospective, longitudinal study in 44 HIV-infected men treated with ART who had measurements of BMD at the lumbar spine, proximal femur and total body at baseline, 2, 6 and 12 years. RESULTS At baseline, the mean age of participants was 49 years, the mean duration of HIV infection was 8 years, and the mean duration of ART was 50 months. After 12 years, BMD increased by 6.9% (95% CI 3.4 to 10.3) at the lumbar spine, and remained stable (range of BMD change: - 0.6% to 0.0%) at the total hip, femoral neck and total body. Only two individuals had a decrease of > 10% in BMD at any site during follow-up and both decreases in BMD were explained by co-morbid illnesses. CONCLUSIONS BMD remained stable over 12 years in middle-aged and older HIV-infected men treated with ART. Monitoring BMD in men established on ART who do not have risk factors for BMD loss is not necessary.

Abstract
Following definitive chemoradiation for anal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC), patients face a variety of chronic issues including: bowel dysfunction, accelerated bone loss, sexual dysfunction, and psychosocial distress. The increasing incidence of this disease, high cure rates, and significant long-term sequelae warrant increased focus on optimal survivorship care following definitive chemoradiation. In order to establish our survivorship care model for ASCC patients, a multi-disciplinary team of experts performed a comprehensive literature review and summarized best practices for the multi-disciplinary management of this unique patient population. We reviewed principle domains of our survivorship approach: (1) management of chronic toxicities; (2) sexual health; (3) HIV management in affected patients; (4) psychosocial wellbeing; and (5) surveillance for disease recurrence and survivorship care delivery. We provide recommendations for the optimization of survivorship care for ASCC patients can through a multi-disciplinary approach that supports physical and psychological wellness.

Abstract
Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) can cause metabolic toxicities. How cART simplification to dual or monotherapies affects metabolic markers is unknown. We analyzed the metabolic effects of cART simplification to dolutegravir (DTG) monotherapy in the randomized clinical DOMONO (DOlutegravir MONOtherapy for HIV) trial including HIV-positive participants. Renal function, Framingham risk score (FRS), inflammation, and bone mineral density (BMD) with trabecular bone score (TBS) were measured during 48 weeks after simplification. The changes at 48 weeks by on-treatment analyses overall and for prior tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) exposure were analyzed separately, using Bonferroni corrected alpha (p = 0.00096). Ninety-five patients initiated DTG monotherapy, including 80 discontinuing TDF. At week 48, the switch to DTG monotherapy resulted in an expected −7.8 ml/min estimated glomerular filtration decline. In patients on prior TDF, proteinuria improved (p < 0.00096), but proximal tubular dysfunction proportions did not change. Fasting lipids, FRS, and the inflammation markers C-reactive protein and CD4:CD8 T-cell ratio remained stable. Lumbar spine BMD improved (+1.7%, p < 0.00096), while hip BMD and TBS remained comparable. Simplification of TDF-containing cART to DTG monotherapy ameliorated lumbar spine BMD and proteinuria with neutral effect on lipids and inflammation markers. Although DTG monotherapy should not be used in routine care and its role in strictly selected patients with primary HIV infection needs to be further elucidated, these observations remain relevant regarding DTG-based dual therapy without TDF. www.clinicaltrials.gov registration number: NCT02401828.

Abstract
Both HIV infection and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) treatment adversely impact bone metabolism and may lead to osteopenia, which has critical implications for youth with HIV (YWH). This study evaluates changes in the biomarkers of bone metabolism and inflammation among YWH receiving initial treatment with TDF- and non-TDF-containing antiretroviral therapies (ARTs). YWH [n = 23, median age 21 years (range 18-24), 87% male, 61% African American] were assessed for inflammatory and bone metabolism biomarkers at enrollment, after 48 weeks of TDF-containing ART, and 96 weeks of ART without TDF with continued viral suppression. Spearman's rank correlation evaluated biomarker associations. Bone alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, and osteopontin increased after TDF treatment. All fell after TDF was discontinued. Levels of RANKL and osteoprotegerin did not change throughout the study. There was little correlation between biomarkers of bone metabolism and either macrophage or lymphocyte activation at any time point. Our results establish baseline associations between bone metabolism and immune biomarkers for this population, and find that before CD4 T cell decline chronic inflammation does not perturb biomarkers of bone metabolism among YWH. The adverse effects of TDF on bone health may be marginal for YWH at the early stages of disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Initial declines in bone mineral density (BMD) after antiretroviral therapy initiation in HIV are well described, but data on long-term changes and risk factors for decline, particularly among women, are limited. METHODS HIV-infected men and women in the Modena Metabolic Clinic underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans every 6-12 months for up to 10 years (median 4.6 years). Mixed effect regression models in combined and sex-stratified models determined annual rates of decline and clinical factors associated with BMD. Models included demographics, HIV-specific factors, and bone-specific factors; a final model added a sex × time interaction term. RESULTS A total of 839 women and 1759 men contributed ≥2 DXA scans. The majority (82%) were 50 years and younger; 76% had HIV-1 RNA <50 copies per milliliter at baseline; 15% of women were postmenopausal and 7% of men had hypogonadism; and 30% and 27%, respectively, had hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection. The adjusted slopes in BMD among women and men were significantly different at both the femoral neck (women -0.00897 versus men -0.00422 g/cm per year; P < 0.001) and L-spine (women -0.0127 versus men -0.00763 g/cm per year; P < 0.001). Modifiable risks associated with BMD decline included antiretroviral therapy exposure (greater decline with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and less decline with integrase strand transfer inhibitor therapy), HCV, physical activity, and vitamin D insufficiency. CONCLUSIONS Among HIV-infected individuals, bone density at the femoral neck, a significant predictor of fracture risk, declined twice as quickly among women compared with men. Female sex was independently associated with both lower femoral neck and lumbar BMD over time in adjusted models.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether treatment with 100,000 IU/month (equivalent to 3200 IU/day) of cholecalciferol and 1 g/day of dietary calcium supplementation in HIV patients following different cART regimens yields normal levels of vitamin D3 and PTH as well as whether changes in bone mineral density are clinically significant. METHODS Consecutive HIV patients following different cART regimens received 100,000 IU/month (equivalent to 3200 IU/day) of cholecalciferol and 1 g/day of dietary calcium supplementation. The participants underwent BMD assessment via dual energy X-ray absorptiometry of the spine and hip at baseline (T0) and after 24 months (T1). Levels of 25(OH) vitamin D3 and parathyroid hormone (PTH) were assessed at T0 and T1. Quantitative variables were assessed with a paired t-test, independent t-test or analysis of variance, as appropriate. A chi-squared analysis was used to assess the association between qualitative variables. A p-value <0.05 was considered significant. Patients were divided into three groups depending on the cART regimen. RESULTS A total of 79 patients were included (40 males, 51% and 39 females, 49%), with a mean age of 46.6 (SD ±11.2) years, a baseline CD4 count of 649 cells/µl and a mean 25 hydroxycholecalciferol (25(OH) D3) value of 25 + 10 ng/ml. After 24 months, the 25(OH) D3 increased to 40 + 11 ng/ml. The initial BMDs at T0 were estimated as 0.919 (±0.27) and 0.867 (±0.14) g/cm2 at the spine and hip, respectively. After 24 months, the BMD was 0.933 (±0.15) g/cm2 at the spine and 0.857 (±0.14) g/cm2 at the hip. Based on a BMD change exceeding 3%, a worsening was observed in 23% of patients at the spine and 27% at the hip, whereas stability or improvement was demonstrated in 77% of patients at the spine and 73% at the hip. Subgrouping patients based on antiretroviral therapy indicated that, at T1, there was a statistically significant increase in vitamin D3 concentration in all patients, while PTH concentration was not significantly reduced in patients taking tenofovir or efavirenz. BMD stability or improvement was demonstrated in 77% of patients at the spine and 73% at the hip after 24 months. The multivariate analysis confirms a decrease in vitamin D3 and an increase in PTH levels in smokers, as well higher vitamin D3 concentrations in males and lower spine BMDs in menopausal females. CONCLUSION The proposed protocol of cholecalciferol and dietary calcium supplementation is safe and valid for correcting vitamin D abnormalities in almost all patients as well as reducing PTH levels in a high percentage of patients; however, it is not sufficient for normalization, particularly in patients exposed to tenofovir or efavirenz. At the spine, no significant BMD change was found in any of the therapy groups. At the hip, our data confirm a modest negative effect on bone mass caused by tenofovir and efavirenz.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The relationships between frailty and body composition in older adults with HIV infection are poorly understood. We sought to describe associations between frailty and measures of body composition among adult men with HIV and without HIV. DESIGN/METHODS Men with and without HIV (age 50-69 years) in the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS) Bone Strength Substudy were included if evaluated for frailty (by Fried phenotype) and body composition [BMI, waist circumference, abdominal visceral (VAT) and subcutaneous (SAT) adipose tissue, sarcopenia, and osteopenia/osteoporosis]. All participants with HIV infection were on antiretroviral therapy. Multivariate multinomial logistic regression models were used to determine associations of frailty with body composition. RESULTS A total of 399 men, including 199 men with HIV and 200 men without HIV, both with median age 60 years, constituted our study population. Frailty prevalence was 16% (men with HIV) vs. 8% (men without HIV). HIV serostatus was associated with a 2.43 times higher odds of frailty (P = 0.01). Higher waist circumference, VAT, sarcopenia, and femoral neck osteoporosis were associated with increased odds of frailty (aOR 4.18, 4.45, 4.15, and 13.6, respectively, and all P < 0.05); BMI and SAT were not. None of these measures presented a differential association with frailty by HIV serostatus (all P > 0.20). CONCLUSION Higher abdominal obesity and sarcopenia were associated with frailty among men with and without HIV. Assessment of these body composition parameters may help detect frailty in the clinical setting.

Abstract
Objectives Several studies have involved antiretroviral therapy in the pathogenesis of low bone mineral density (BMD), while others have not confirmed this association. In this study we analyze the impact of HIV status, traditional risk factors and antiretroviral therapy in BMD in an HIV-infected population living in Madrid. Material and methods We performed a cross-sectional analysis of 107 individuals infected with HIV and exposed to antiretroviral treatment to estimate the prevalence of decreased BMD. Bone mineral density of lumbar spine and femoral neck was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. In a multivariate analysis variables related with HIV status, antiretroviral drugs and traditional risk factors were included. Results Low BMD was diagnosed in 63 participants (58.9%), including osteoporosis in 11 (10%). At least one cause of osteoporosis was identified in 43 patients (40%), with a deficiency of vitamin D in 86 (89%) and secondary hyperparathyroidism in 30 (28%). In multivariate analysis, increasing age, a treatment based on boosted PI and tenofovir DF, and previous exposure to tenofovir were identified as independent risk factors for a decreased BMD in both lumbar spine and femoral neck. Conclusions We have confirmed a high prevalence of reduced BMD, which is favoured by ritonavir-boosted PI and TDF. Bone safety should continue to be evaluated in clinical trials and cohort studies in order to demonstrate that the new drugs offer additional advantages regarding the impact on BMD.

Abstract
Introduction Previous studies indicate that human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infection and combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) can affect bone turnover. Furthermore, HIV-infected patients have lower bone mineral density (BMD) compared to a healthy reference population. Objective To evaluate the longitudinal effect of HIV-infection and cART on bone turnover markers (BTMs) and BMD in men with primary HIV-infection (PHI). Design, methods Thirty-five PHI-men were divided into two groups, those that received cART for the first time (n = 26) versus no-cART (n = 9). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was performed on femoral neck (FN), total hip (TH) and lumbar spine (LS) and BTMs (P1NP, alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, ICTP and CTX) were measured at baseline and follow-up. Results At baseline, the median CD4+ T-cell count was 455 cells/mm3 (IQR 320–620) and plasma viral load 5.4 log10 copies/mL (IQR 4.7–6.0) in the cART treated group, compared to 630 (IQR 590–910) and 4.8 (IQR 4.2–5.1) in the untreated group. The median follow-up time was 60.7 weeks (IQR 24.7–96.0). All BTMs, except ICTP, showed a significant increase during cART versus no changes of BTMs in the untreated group. FN and TH BMD showed a significant decrease in both groups. LS BMD did not change in both groups. Conclusion Bone turnover increased in PHI-men treated with cART which was accompanied by a decrease in FN and TH BMD. No increase of bone turnover was seen in untreated PHI-men. Our study suggests that cART results in increased bone turnover and decreased BMD of the hip in PHI-men.

Abstract
HIV-infected patients exposed to antiretroviral therapy (ART) have an increased risk for hyperlipidemia and cardiovascular disease. We performed a longitudinal, comprehensive, and population-based study to investigate the cumulative effect of different types of ART regimens on hyperlipidemia risk in the Taiwanese HIV/ART cohort. A total of 13,370 HIV-infected patients (2,674 hyperlipidemia and 10,696 non-hyperlipidemia patients) were recruited after matching for age, gender, and the first diagnosis date of HIV infection by using the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan. Hyperlipidemia risk associated with cumulative ART use, ART adherence, and their combination was assessed. The matched hyperlipidemia group had a larger number of patients using ART and a higher incidence of comorbidities, specifically, respiratory disease and diabetes. Patients with high ART dosage and dose-dependent manner adherence, respectively, demonstrated an increased risk of hyperlipidemia. For single ART regimens, patients receiving nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI/NRTI)- containing regimen had the highest hyperlipidemia risk, followed by protease inhibitor (PI)- containing and non-NRTI- containing regimens. For combination ART regimens, patients receiving a NRTI/NRTI + PI regimen had the highest hyperlipidemia risk. An increased cumulative drug dose was observed in patients who received the PI, NRTI/NRTI, NRTI, and NNRTI regimens in the hyperlipidemia group, when compared to the non-hyperlipidemia group. In conclusion, ART cumulative use, adherence, and regimen may affect hyperlipidemia risk among HIV-infected patients in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES HIV infection has been associated with reduced bone mineral density (BMD). Antiretroviral therapy (ART) has a deleterious effect on BMD, but its effect on bone fragility is not clear. The objective of this study is to analyze the BMD, microarchitecture, and tissue quality of bone in patients receiving long-term tenofovir- or abacavir-based ART. DESIGN We conducted a cross-sectional study in patients with HIV undergoing tenofovir or abacavir ART for more than 5 years. METHODS We measured BMD using dual X-ray absorptiometry ,bone michroarchitecture using trabecular bone score (TBS), and bone tissue quality using microindentation. TBS is a dual X-ray absorptiometry-based software that is more highly correlated with bone fragility than BMD. Microindentation (BMSi) directly assesses bone quality at the tissue level. RESULTS A total of 63 patients were included in this study, with 36 belonging to the TDF-FTC group and 27 to the ABC-3TC group. Patients receiving TDF-FTC treatment showed lower BMD values than those in the ABC-3TC group. We found no differences in TBS or microindentation between the 2 groups. However, after adjusting for sex, age, body mass index, and 25[OH]vitD we found lower BMSi and thus poorer bone properties in the TDF-FTC group than in the ABC-3TC group [beta coefficient -3.594 (confidence interval: 95% -0.12 to -7.61); P = 0.043]. CONCLUSIONS Long-term treatment with TDF-FTC leads to impaired bone health, not only in terms of BMD but also in terms of bone quality, another determinant of overall bone strength. To complement BMD-based predictions, these other techniques may also be used to identify patients with excess fracture risk.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Both HIV infection and antiretroviral therapy (ART) are associated with lower bone mineral density (BMD) and increased fracture risk. Because the relative contributions of ART and untreated HIV to BMD loss are unclear, it is important to quantify the effect of ART on bone. We compared the effect of early ART initiation (CD4 >500 cells/μL) with deferred ART on change in BMD in the START Bone Mineral Density substudy, a randomized trial evaluating the effect of immediate ART initiation versus deferring ART (to CD4 <350 cells/μL). BMD was measured annually at the lumbar spine and hip by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Percent change in BMD by treatment assignment (intent-to-treat analysis) was estimated using longitudinal mixed models and linear regression. Baseline and follow-up DXA scans were available for 399 (195 immediate, 204 deferred) participants (median age 32 years, 80% non-white, 26% women, median CD4 count 642 cells/μL). ART (most commonly including tenofovir and efavirenz) was used for 95% and 18% of follow-up in the immediate and deferred ART groups, respectively. Through 2.2 years mean follow-up, immediate ART resulted in greater BMD declines than deferred ART at the hip (-2.5% versus -1.0%; difference -1.5%, 95% confidence interval [CI] -2.2 to -0.8, p < 0.001) and spine (-1.9% versus -0.4%; difference -1.6%, 95% CI -2.2 to -1.0, p < 0.001). BMD declines were greatest in the first year of ART. In the immediate ART group, spine BMD stabilized after year 1, whereas hip BMD declined progressively over 2 years. After year 1, BMD changes were similar in the immediate and deferred groups. No clinical, HIV-related, or ART characteristic predicted greater BMD loss in either group. All HIV treatment guidelines now recommend ART initiation at HIV diagnosis because of the reduced risk of serious clinical outcomes. Better understanding of the longer-term consequences of the observed reductions in BMD is needed. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION NCT00867048. © 2017 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
More than 36 million people are living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection worldwide and 50% of them have access to antiretroviral therapy (ART). While recent advances in HIV therapy have reduced the viral load, restored CD4 T cell counts and decreased opportunistic infections, several bone-related abnormalities such as low bone mineral density (BMD), osteoporosis, osteopenia, osteomalacia and fractures have emerged in HIV-infected individuals. Of all classes of antiretroviral agents, HIV protease inhibitors used in ART combination showed a higher frequency of osteopenia, osteoporosis and low BMD in HIV-infected patients. Although the mechanisms of HIV and/or ART associated bone abnormalities are not known, it is believed that the damage is caused by a complex interaction of T lymphocytes with osteoclasts and osteoblasts, likely influenced by both HIV and ART. In addition, infection of osteoclasts and bone marrow stromal cells by HIV, including HIV Gp120 induced apoptosis of osteoblasts and release of proinflammatory cytokines have been implicated in impairment of bone development and maturation. Several of the newer antiretroviral agents currently used in ART combination, including the widely used tenofovir in different formulations show relative adverse effects on BMD. In this context, switching the HIV-regimen from tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) to tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) showed improvement in BMD of HIV-infected patients. In addition, inclusion of integrase inhibitor in ART combination is associated with improved BMD in patients. Furthermore, supplementation of vitamin D and calcium with the initiation of ART may mitigate bone loss. Therefore, levels of vitamin D and calcium should be part of the evaluation of HIV-infected patients.

Abstract
Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI)- and protease inhibitor (PI)-sparing antiretroviral regimens may be useful in selected human immune deficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients with resistance or intolerance to these drug classes. This was an observational prospective study of patients on suppressive antiretroviral therapy containing two NRTIs plus one ritonavir-boosted PI who switched to a dual regimen containing raltegravir plus etravirine. Patients were required not to have prior virological failure to raltegravir and to have efficacy of etravirine shown through the genotypic resistance assay in case of prior non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) virological failure. As a whole, 38 patients were enrolled. The mean duration of current regimen was 4.3 years, and the reason for simplification was toxicity in 29 patients and resistance to NRTIs in 9 patients. After switching, the percentage of patients with HIV RNA <20 copies/ml at week 48 was 81.6% in the intent-to-treat-exposed analysis. The switch led to a significant reduction in the mean serum triglyceride levels (-81.2 mg/dl), in the mean total cholesterol levels (-44.3 mg/dl), and in the prevalence of tubular proteinuria (-30.2%), with a significant increase in the mean phosphoremia (+0.52 mg/dl) and in both mean lumbar and femoral neck bone mineral density (+6.5% and +4.7%, respectively). Two patients (5.2%) had virological failure due to suboptimal adherence, and five subjects (13.1%) discontinued treatment due to adverse events. In our study, simplification to the dual-therapy raltegravir plus etravirine was associated with a good efficacy and tolerability, in addition to a favorable effect on kidney, bone, and serum lipids.

Abstract
: HIV infection, in many circumstances, can now be managed as a chronic disease due to the marked increase in life expectancy since the introduction of combination antiretroviral therapy (ART). As the patients who first had access to combination ART age into their 50s and 60s, the effects of chronic HIV infection on health have become an important research focus in HIV infection. People living with HIV appear to exhibit an earlier occurrence of some aging-related conditions compared to people without HIV, in part due to higher rates of comorbidities, high-risk behaviors (e.g. smoking, substance use), chronic immune activation, inflammation, and ART-specific factors. Some studies have even suggested an earlier-than-expected appearance of the 'geriatric syndromes,' which are complex medical syndromes of older adults that are associated with morbidity and mortality. The geriatric syndromes include a wide variety of disease processes ranging from incontinence and dementia to impairments in physical function. This review will focus on one geriatric syndrome, sarcopenia, in older HIV-infected populations, and its relation to other aging syndromes, including frailty and falls. The contribution of HIV itself, ART exposure, and specific comorbidities, and the importance of early recognition and prevention of these aging syndromes will be highlighted.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is an established risk factor for low bone mineral density (BMD) and subsequent fracture, and treatment with combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) leads to additional BMD loss, particularly in the first 1-2 years of therapy. The prevalence of low BMD and fragility fracture is expected to increase as the HIV-infected population ages with successful treatment with cART. Mechanisms of bone loss in the setting of HIV infection are likely multifactorial, and include viral, host, and immune effects, as well as direct and indirect effects of cART, particularly tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and the protease inhibitors (PIs). Emerging data indicate that BMD loss following cART initiation can be mitigated by prophylaxis with either long-acting bisphosphonates or vitamin D and calcium supplementation. In addition, newer antiretrovirals, particularly the integrase strand transfer inhibitors and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), are associated with less intense bone loss than PIs and TDF. However, further studies are needed to establish optimal bone sparing cART regimens, appropriate screening intervals, and preventive measures to address the rising prevalence of fragility bone disease in the HIV population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Body composition impacts physical function and mortality. We compared long-term body composition changes after antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation in HIV-infected individuals to that in HIV-uninfected controls. DESIGN Prospective observational study. METHODS We performed dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) approximately 7.5 years after initial DXA in available HIV-infected individuals who received DXAs during the randomized treatment trial AIDS Clinical Trials Group A5202. For controls, we used DXA results from HIV-uninfected participants in the Boston Area Community Health/Bone and Women's Interagency HIV Study cohorts. Repeated measures analyses compared adjusted body composition changes between HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected individuals. Multivariable analyses evaluated factors associated with body composition change in HIV-infected individuals. RESULTS We obtained DXA results in 97 HIV-infected and 614 HIV-uninfected participants. Compared with controls, HIV-infected individuals had greater adjusted lean mass and total, trunk, and limb fat gain during the first 96 weeks of ART. Subsequently, HIV-infected individuals lost lean mass compared with controls. Total, trunk, and limb fat gains after 96 weeks of ART slowed in HIV-infected individuals but remained greater than in controls. Lower CD4 T-cell count was associated with lean mass and fat gain during the initial 96 weeks of ART, but subsequently no HIV-related characteristic was associated with body composition change. CONCLUSION Consistent with a 'return to health effect', HIV-infected individuals, especially those with lower baseline CD4 T-cell counts, gained more lean mass and fat during the first 96 weeks of ART than HIV-uninfected individuals. Continued fat gain and lean mass loss after 96 weeks may predispose HIV-infected individuals to obesity-related diseases and physical function impairment.
