Abstract
Introduction Introduction: much evidence confirms that vitamin D may be associated with an improvement in CD4 cell counts in HIV-infected individuals, where antiretroviral therapy (ART) is used and associated with decreased 25(OH)D levels. Objective: to carry out a systematic review on the effect of vitamin D supplementation on HIV-infected adult patients. Methods: the research was conducted in the databases Science Direct, PubMed, BVS, Scielo Cochrane and Periods, from February to April 2018, with publication limit from 2000 to 2018, without restriction of gender, ethnicity and involving individuals with age older than 18 years. To evaluate the quality of the studies, we used the protocol Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyzes (PRISMA) and the Jadad scale. Results: the search initially resulted in 198 articles. After the selection process 5 articles were identified as eligible, where they highlight that vitamin D supplementation may be an associated and effective intervention to reduce hypovitaminosis. ART reduces vitamin D3 levels and changes its metabolism, being associated with the risk of mortality. However, adequate levels of 25(OH)D are positively associated with the number of CD4 + cells and the reduction of infection levels. Conclusion: vitamin D supplementation promotes immune recovery. However, the cases analysed were few, insufficient to fully confirm the benefits and recommend supplementation. Therefore, intervention studies are needed to elucidate the role of vitamin D in human protection against HIV infections.

Safety of tenofovir during pregnancy: early growth outcomes and hematologic side effects in HIV-exposed uninfected infants. Eur J Pediatr 2020; 179:99-109. [PMID: 31659467 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-019-03481-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2019] [Revised: 08/27/2019] [Accepted: 09/23/2019] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Intrauterine exposure to zidovudine-based combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) can cause severe anemia within the first weeks of life. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-based regimens may have less hematologic side effects but may affect growth parameters. This study aimed to assess the safety of TDF for prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) in HIV-exposed uninfected infants regarding early growth outcomes and hematologic side effects. Our retrospective observational cohort study included children born (n = 232) to HIV-infected mothers (n = 228) on cART. Blood counts were compared at birth, 4-6 weeks, and 3, 12 and 18 months of age. Growth parameters were measured at birth and 12 and 18 months of age. Data were analyzed according to treatment group (TDF and non-TDF cART regimes). The median hemoglobin (Hgb) was significantly lower in the non-TDF-based group at birth (15.4 g/dl vs. 16.9 g/dl; **p = 0.002) and at 4-6 weeks of age (9.9 g/dl vs. 10.4 g/dl; **p = 0.004). The mean corpuscular volume was higher in the non-TDF-based group (109 fl vs. 105 fl; ***p < 0.001) as well at 4-6 weeks (102 fl vs. 95 fl; ***p < 0.001). In the TDF-based group, a higher proportion of neutropenia (grade 2 and higher) compared to the non-TDF-group (21.4% vs. 11%; *p = 0.015) was observed at three months of age. This effect was transient. There was no difference in growth.Conclusions: TDF appears to have no major side effects in our cohort. Transient anemia was observed more commonly with non-TDF regimens. However, our research suggests a potential delayed effect of TDF on neutrophils at 3 months of age.What is Known:• TDF is suspected to affect the growth of HIV-exposed uninfected infants.• Non-TDF-based cART regimes for prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV often result in transient anemia in the infant.What is New:• TDF appears to have no major side effects regarding the growth of HIV-exposed uninfected infants.• Our research suggests a potential delayed effect of TDF on neutrophils at 3 months of age in these infants.

Abstract
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate-emtricitabine (TDF-FTC) reduces bone mineral density in HIV-uninfected men who have sex with men (MSM). We hypothesized that PrEP with TDF-FTC would increase bone turnover markers (BTMs) at week 24 and that vitamin D supplementation from weeks 24 to 48 would blunt this increase. Participants were from a cohort of 398 MSM and transgender women who received daily TDF-FTC for PrEP. At week 24, a prospective intervention group initiated vitamin D3 4,000 IU daily. Concurrent controls were selected from the cohort who took ≤400 IU/day of vitamin D3 matched by age, race, and body mass index. The primary endpoint was the change in procollagen-I N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) from weeks 24 to 48. Paired t-tests were used to compare changes in BTMs between intervention and controls. Among 48 intervention-control pairs, median age was 33 years. At baseline, 68.9% of the intervention group and 77.3% of controls were vitamin D sufficient (≥20 ng/mL, p = .94). P1NP, C-telopeptide, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and 25-OH vitamin D3 did not increase significantly at week 24. P1NP fell by a mean ± SD of -27.6 ± 49.9 pg/mL from weeks 24 to 48 with vitamin D and -2.5 ± 40.2 pg/mL in controls (p = .01). There were no significant between-group differences in the weeks 24-48 change in C-telopeptide, PTH, or 25-OH vitamin D3. Vitamin D3 supplementation with 4,000 IU/day resulted in a significant reduction in the BTM P1NP compared with controls, suggesting that this intervention has potential to improve bone health during PrEP.

Abstract
Background: Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) antiretroviral therapy is associated with disruption of the bone turnover process.Objectives: The objective of this study was to determine the association between tenofovir (TFV) plasma concentration and various bone turnover markers and compare these markers in HIV-infected women and HIV-uninfected controls.Method: A cross-sectional sub-study included 30 HIV-infected women on TDF and 30 HIV-uninfected matched participants. Serum calcium (SrCa), serum phosphate (SrP), C-terminal telopeptide (CTx), parathyroid hormone (PTH), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), C-reactive protein (CRP), vitamin D (VitD) and bone mineral density (BMD) were measured. Plasma TFV was assayed on HPLC-MS/MS. The statistical tests applied were Mann–Whitney test, unpaired t-test, analysis of covariance, regression and correlation analysis.Results: In HIV-infected women, no correlation existed between plasma TFV concentration and CTx, PTH, ALP, SrCa, SrP, VitD or BMD (p > 0.05). After adjusting for smoking and alcohol use, ALP (p < 0.001), CTx (p = 0.027) and PTH (p = 0.050) were significantly higher in HIV-infected compared to HIV-uninfected women. Women with TFV concentration ≥ 120 ng/mL had higher PTH concentrations (p = 0.037) compared to those with ≤ 100 ng/mL. Significant correlations between SrCa and PTH and SrCa and SrP including CTx and PTH (p < 0.05) were present in HIV-uninfected women while absent in HIV-infected counterparts (p > 0.05).Conclusion: The results indicate possible increased bone turnover at higher TFV concentrations. The normal regular bone turnover processes in HIV-infected women on TDF therapy are altered. Larger studies are warranted to confirm these results.

Abstract
Background: Nutrition is critical to HIV mortality and morbidity. Improved treatment modalities have increased life expectancy of HIV-infected individuals. More than 1 million US adults are living with HIV, but little is known about their nutritional status. Objective: We aimed to characterize the nutritional status of those living with HIV with the use of the NHANES 2003-2014. Methods: The NHANES is a nationally representative, cross-sectional survey of the US population and includes a household interview, medical examination, and two 24-h dietary recalls; survey weights are applied to make the data nationally representative. HIV antibodies were ascertained initially by immunoassay and confirmed with Western blot. NHANES 2003-2014 data were analyzed for HIV-positive (n = 87) and HIV-negative (n = 15,868) US adults (aged 19-49 y). Body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, dietary intakes, and nutritional biomarkers were estimated and compared by HIV status, stratified by sex. Results: HIV-infected men and women had higher serum protein, lower serum albumin, and lower serum folate than did non-HIV-infected adults. HIV-positive women had significantly higher BMI, prevalence of overweight or obesity, and waist circumference risk and substantially lower serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations (44 compared with 65 nmol/L) than did HIV-negative women. When compared with HIV-negative women, HIV-positive women had lower intakes of some key nutrients such as fiber, vitamin E, vitamin K, magnesium, and potassium but had higher intakes of protein and niacin. Conclusions: The NHANES data suggest that HIV infection is associated with poorer markers of some nutritional status indicators; however, the US population prevalence of HIV is <0.5%. Given the small sample size, not only in this study but also in the United States, much more targeted research is needed to better understand the multitude of factors that influence the nutritional status among those living with HIV in the United States, especially among women.

Abstract
We evaluated associations of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25[OH]2D) levels in a cohort of HIV-infected and HIV-uninfected men at risk for infection in the United States. Stored samples collected between 1999 and 2008 were tested for vitamin D metabolites between 2014 and 2015. Vitamin D deficiency was defined as a serum concentration of 25[OH]D <20 ng/ml. Multivariate models were used to assess associations of various demographic and clinical factors with vitamin D status. HIV-infected men on effective antiretroviral therapy (n = 640) and HIV-uninfected men (n = 99) had comparable levels of 25[OH]D and 1,25[OH]2D, and prevalences of vitamin D deficiency were 41% in HIV-infected and 44% in HIV-uninfected men, respectively. Self-reported black or other non-white race, obesity, and normal kidney function were significant predictors of vitamin D deficiency regardless of HIV serostatus. Lower CD4+ T cell count was associated with vitamin D deficiency in HIV-infected men, while current ritonavir use was protective. Self-reported black race was the only factor significantly associated with higher levels of 1,25[OH]2D (vs. whites; β = 4.85 pg/ml, p = .003). Levels of 1,25[OH]2D and 25[OH]D were positively correlated in HIV-infected men (β = 0.32 pg/ml, p < .001), but not in uninfected men (β = -0.09 pg/ml, p = .623; p < .05 for interaction). Vitamin D deficiency was prevalent regardless of HIV serostatus in this cohort, suggesting that HIV infection did not confer additional risk of deficiency in this cohort of well-treated HIV-infected men. However, HIV infection and race may have implications for vitamin D metabolism and 1,25[OH]2D levels.

Abstract
Low vitamin D level in HIV-positive persons has been associated with disease progression. We compared the levels of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) in HIV-positive and HIV-negative persons, and investigated the role of nutritional supplementation and antiretroviral treatment (ART) on serum 25(OH)D levels. A randomised nutritional supplementation trial was conducted at Jimma University Specialized Hospital, Ethiopia. The trial compared 200 g/d of lipid-based nutrient supplement (LNS) with no supplementation during the first 3 months of ART. The supplement provided twice the recommended daily allowance of vitamin D (10 μg/200 g). The level of serum 25(OH)D before nutritional intervention and ART initiation was compared with serum 25(OH)D of HIV-negative individuals. A total of 348 HIV-positive and 100 HIV-negative persons were recruited. The median baseline serum 25(OH)D level was higher in HIV-positive than in HIV-negative persons (42·5 v. 35·3 nmol/l, P17 kg/m2 were randomised to either LNS supplementation (n 189) or no supplementation (n 93) during the first 3 months of ART. The supplemented group had a 4·1 (95 % CI 1·7, 6·4) nmol/l increase in serum 25(OH)D, whereas the non-supplemented group had a 10·8 (95 % CI 7·8, 13·9) nmol/l decrease in serum 25(OH)D level after 3 months of ART. Nutritional supplementation that contained vitamin D prevented a reduction in serum 25(OH)D levels in HIV-positive persons initiating ART. Vitamin D replenishment may be needed to prevent reduction in serum 25(OH)D levels during ART.

Abstract
Hypovitaminosis D and secondary hyperparathyroidism are frequent among HIV-infected patients. As there are no data about the best supplementation therapy both in treatment and in maintenance, we conducted an observational study of 300 HIV-infected patients for whom vitamin D and parathormone (PTH) had been measured in order to validate a protocol of vitamin D supplementation in patients with HIV-infection. Patients with vitamin D deficiency (defined as 25(OH)D < 10 ng/mL), insufficiency (defined as 25(OH)D < 20 ng/mL), or hyperparathyroidism (PTH > 65 pg/mL) were supplemented with cholecalciferol 16.000IU (0.266 mg) weekly (if deficiency) or fortnightly (if insufficiency or high PTH levels). Rates of normalization of 25(OH)D (levels above 20 ng/mL) and PTH levels (<65 pg/mL) were analyzed. Multivariate analysis of factors related to normalization was carried out. With a median follow-up of 2 years, 82.1% of patients with deficiency and 83.9% of cases with insufficiency reached levels above 20 ng/mL. However, only 67.2% of individuals with hyperparathyroidism at baseline reached target levels (<65 pg/mL). Independent factors for not achieving PTH objective were tenofovir (TDF) and protease inhibitors use. In HIV-infected patients with hypovitaminosis, the protocol of cholecalciferol supplementation normalized vitamin D levels regardless of antiretroviral regimen in a high proportion of patients but it was less effective to correct hyperparathyroidism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine longitudinal change in vitamin D binding protein (DBP) levels during the first year after initiation of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)/lamivudine/efavirenz and compare these findings with concurrent changes in markers of skeletal metabolism. DESIGN Secondary analysis of plasma samples collected from an ongoing multicenter clinical trial. METHODS Plasma samples collected at 0, 24, and 48 weeks after initiation of TDF + lamivudine + efavirenz from 134 adult participants enrolled in a multicenter randomized trial were analyzed. Data regarding sociodemographic and clinical characteristics were obtained as part of the parent study. Laboratory analyses included plasma DBP, intact parathyroid hormone, total 25-hydroxy vitamin D, phosphorus, the bone resorption marker collagen type 1 cross-linked C-telopeptide, and the bone formation marker total procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide. Repeated measures analysis of variance was used to measure changes in biomarkers over time. RESULTS Our sample included 108 men and 26 women (mean age 33.6 ± 9.6 years). Median levels of DBP increased significantly from baseline to 48 weeks [154 (91.8-257.4) versus 198.3 (119.6-351.9) μg/ml, P < 0.001]. A concurrent rise in intact parathyroid hormone levels was observed over the same period [32.3 (24.4-40.9) versus 45.2 (35.1-60.4) pg/ml, P < 0.001]; however, 25-hydroxy vitamin D and phosphorus levels remained stable. Bone resorption and formation markers rapidly increased from 0 to 24 weeks, followed by a slight decline or plateau, but remained significantly elevated at 48 weeks (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our study provides longitudinal data supporting a potential role for DBP in bone loss associated with TDF-based therapy. Further research to elucidate the mechanistic pathways and clinical impact of these findings is warranted.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The mechanisms underlying the effect of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) on the decline of bone mineral density (BMD) have not been established, especially the effect of renal tubular dysfunction. METHODS Longitudinal study of 90 patients with two successive dual X-ray absorptiometry scans after evaluation of serum and urinary parameters (proteinuria, albuminuria, phosphaturia, uricosuria, glycosuria, β-2-microglobulin, and retinol-binding protein). RESULTS After a median of 38 months on TDF, osteopenia at spine and hip was observed in 49 and 48%, and osteoporosis in 9 and 2%, respectively. There was a lineal correlation between BMD at femoral neck and time on TDF (Spearman's rho = -0.27; P = 0.01). One or more tubular abnormalities were observed in 80% of cases (hyperphosphaturia, 50%). A lower BMD correlated with phosphaturia (r = -0.25; P = 0.03), even with phosphataemia within normal limits. In fact, patients with previous improvement in phosphaturia had better BMD at inclusion (Spearman's rho = -0.33; P < 0.01). A second dual X-ray absorptiometry, after a median of 40.8 months (33.8-45.1; 627.7 patients-year on TDF), showed additional BMD reduction at hip in 50% of cases (36% with bone loss >3%), a decline associated with phosphaturia (β, -0.31; P = 0.01) or number of tubular abnormalities (β, -0.41; P = 0.01), but also with use of boosted protease inhibitors (β, -0.47; P = 0.03) and BMD at inclusion (β, -0.33; P = 0.03). CONCLUSION Chronic abnormal phosphaturia explains, at least in part, progressive bone loss during TDF therapy. These data suggest that tubular dysfunction leads to an altered equilibrium between phosphataemia, phosphaturia, and bone as mechanism of progressive BMD decline.

Abstract
RATIONALE To see if vitamin D and antiretroviral therapy are associated with bone mineral density (BMD) in people with HIV. RESULT Lower hip BMD was associated with tenofovir (an antiretroviral medicine) in those with 25(OH)D ≥50 nmol/L. SIGNIFICANCE The relationship between antiretroviral therapy and hip BMD differs depending on vitamin D status. INTRODUCTION People with HIV have an increased risk of low BMD and fractures. Antiretroviral therapy contributes to this increased risk. The aim of this study was to evaluate associations between vitamin D metabolites and antiretroviral therapy on BMD. METHODS The simplification of antiretroviral therapy with tenofovir-emtricitabine or abacavir-lamivudine trial (STEAL) was an open-label, prospective randomised non-inferiority study that compared simplification of current nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) to fixed-dose combination tenofovir-emtricitabine (TDF-FTC) or abacavir-lamivudine. Serum 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D were measured in 160 individuals (90 receiving TDF-FTC, 70 receiving other NRTIs) at baseline from this study. Multivariable linear regression models were constructed to evaluate the covariates of 1,25(OH)2D and BMD. RESULTS Protease inhibitor use (p = 0.02) and higher body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.002) were associated with lower 1,25(OH)2D levels in those with 25(OH)D <50 nmol/L. However, TDF-FTC use (p = 0.01) was associated with higher 1,25(OH)2D levels, but only in those with 25(OH)D ≥50 nmol/L. White ethnicity (p = 0.02) and lower BMI (p < 0.001) in those with 25(OH)D <50 nmol/L and with TDF-FTC use (p = 0.008) in those with 25(OH)D ≥50 nmol/L were associated with lower hip BMD. TDF-FTC use, higher serum calcium and serum βCTX, winter, and lower bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP) and BMI were associated with lower lumbar spine BMD. CONCLUSION TDF-FTC use (versus non-TDF-FTC use) was associated with lower hip BMD, and this difference was more pronounced in those with 25(OH)D ≥50 nmol/L. Serum 25(OH)D <50 nmol/L was associated with lower hip BMD in all participants. Therefore, the associations between antiretroviral therapy and hip BMD differ depending on vitamin D status.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Viral hepatitis B (VHB) represents a major public health problem. Studies from HIV multidrug patients have associated the use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) with renal dysfunction and phosphate wasting. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to examine the effect of year-long TDF monotherapy on renal function in VHB patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS We evaluated adult patients diagnosed with VHB before treatment initiation (T0), and after 3 and 12 months (T3 and T12) of TDF initiation. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was estimated by serum cystatin C and creatinine. In addition, urinary electrolytes and tubular biomarkers (cystatin C, β2-microglobulin and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin) were analyzed, as well as parathyroid hormone (PTH) and 25(OH)vitamin D levels. RESULTS After 1 year, 32 patients completed the study, 22 (68.7%) men and 12 (37.5%) Whites, mean age 44.1±12.0 years. We found that serum electrolytes were similar at baseline and 3 or 12 months after initiation of TDF monotherapy. In addition, urinary fractional excretions of electrolytes as well as proteinuria, albuminuria, urinary β2-microglobulin, and urinary cystatin C showed no significant differences across the treatment timeline. There were also no statistical differences in the eGFR. There was a statistically significant increase in the PTH (Friedman's test, P=0.012), but the 25(OH)vitamin D levels were in the normal range in the beginning and did not change at the follow-up. Moreover, there was no correlation between the initial levels of vitamin D and the corresponding increases in the PTH values. CONCLUSION If used as monotherapy in hepatitis B patients for a 12-month period, TDF is not associated with changes in either eGFR or a panel of urinary biomarkers. Serum and urinary electrolytes also remained unchanged. Of note, a significant increase in the PTH was found, although not related to the 25(OH)vitamin D initial status.

Abstract
This study aimed to document the vitamin D status of HIV-infected individuals across a wide latitude range in one country and to examine associated risk factors for low vitamin D. Using data from patients attending four HIV specialist clinics across a wide latitude range in Australia, we constructed logistic regression models to investigate risk factors associated with 25(OH)D < 75 nmol L(-1). 1788 patients were included; 87% were male, 76% Caucasian and 72% on antiretroviral therapy. The proportion with 25(OH)D < 50 nmol L(-1) was 27%, and <75 nmol L(-1) was 54%. Living in Melbourne compared with Cairns (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 3.30; 95% CI 2.18, 4.99, P < 0.001) and non-Caucasian origin (aOR 2.82, 95% CI 2.12, 3.75, P < 0.001) was associated with an increased risk, while extreme UV index compared with low UV index was associated with a reduced risk (aOR 0.33; 95% CI 0.20, 0.55, P < 0.001) of 25(OH)D < 75 nmol L(-1). In those with biochemistry available (n = 1117), antiretroviral therapy was associated with 25(OH)D < 75 nmol L(-1); however, this association was modified by serum cholesterol status. Location and UV index were the strongest factors associated with 25(OH)D < 75 nmol L(-1). Cholesterol, the product of an alternative steroid pathway with a common precursor steroid, modified the effect of antiretroviral therapy on serum 25(OH)D.

Abstract
TUBERCULOSIS (TB) DISEASE ACTIVATION IS NOW BELIEVED TO ARISE DUE TO A LACK OF INFLAMMATORY HOMEOSTATIC CONTROL AT EITHER END OF THE SPECTRUM OF INFLAMMATION: either due to immunosuppression (decreased antimicrobial activity) or due to immune activation (excess/aberrant inflammation). Vitamin D metabolites can increase antimicrobial activity in innate immune cells, which, in the context of HIV-1 coinfection, have insufficient T cell-mediated help to combat Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) infection. Moreover, maintaining vitamin D sufficiency prior to MTB infection enhances the innate antimicrobial response to T cell-mediated interferon-γ. Conversely, vitamin D can act to inhibit expression and secretion of a broad range of inflammatory mediators and matrix degrading enzymes driving immunopathology during active TB and antiretroviral- (ARV-) mediated immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS). Adjunct vitamin D therapy during treatment of active TB may therefore reduce lung pathology and TB morbidity, accelerate resolution of cavitation and thereby decrease the chance of transmission, improve lung function following therapy, prevent relapse, and prevent IRIS in those initiating ARVs. Future clinical trials of vitamin D for TB prevention and treatment must be designed to detect the most appropriate primary endpoint, which in some cases should be anti-inflammatory and not antimicrobial.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to describe the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency among antiretroviral treatment-naïve, HIV-positive individuals. We reviewed records of consecutive antiretroviral treatment-naïve patients, registering for care for the first time at a London clinic from 01 January 2008 to 31 December 2009. During this period, serum 25-hydroxycholecalciferol was measured routinely for all new patients. 25-hydroxycholecalciferol deficiency and severe deficiency were defined as ≤50 and ≤25 nmol/L, respectively. Among 253 patients (82% men, median age 36 years, 64% white ethnicity), 148 (58.5%) were 25-hydroxycholecalciferol-deficient, including 32 (12.6%) who were severely deficient. In all, 73.5% (61/83) patients of non-white ethnicity were 25-hydroxycholecalciferol-deficient compared with 50.7% (76/150) of those reporting white ethnicity (p < 0.001). Seven of eight (87.5%) patients with hypocalcaemia (<2.12 nmol/L) were 25-hydroxycholecalciferol-deficient. The prevalence of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol-deficiency was higher in winter and spring vs. summer and autumn (89/129 [69.0%] vs. 59/124 [47.6%],p < 0.001). Serum 25-hydroxycholecalciferol deficiency was not associated with gender, CD4 count, HIV viral load or clinical stage. Serum 25-hydroxycholecalciferol deficiency was common among antiretroviral treatment-naïve patients, with those of non-white ethnicity at highest risk. CD4 count, HIV viral load and HIV clinical staging do not help to identify those at risk, but low serum calcium should prompt investigation of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol levels.

Abstract
A 42-y-old HIV-infected man suffered from several stress fractures due to tenofovir-induced proximal tubular injury. Laboratory examination revealed hypophosphatemia due to renal phosphate wasting. Therefore, more attention has to be paid to the monitoring of serum phosphate and alkaline phosphatase levels, since tenofovir-related nephrotoxicity increases the risk of osteomalacia.
