Abstract
People with HIV have a higher risk of fracture than the general population. Because of the low performance of the existing prediction tools, there is controversy surrounding fracture risk estimation in this population. The aim of the study was to develop a model for predicting the long-term risk of fragility fractures in people with HIV. We included 11,899 individuals aged ≥30 years from the Spanish HIV/AIDS research network cohort. We identified incident fragility fractures from medical records, defined as nontraumatic or those occurring after a casual fall, at major osteoporotic sites (hip, clinical spine, forearm, proximal humerus). Our model accounted for the competing risk of death and included 12 candidate predictors to estimate the time to first fragility fracture. We assessed the discrimination and calibration of the model and compared it with the FRAX tool. The incidence rate of fragility fractures was 4.34 (95% CI 3.61 to 5.22) per 1000 person-years. The final prediction model included age, chronic kidney disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease as significant predictors. The model accurately predicted the 5- and 10-year risk of fragility fractures, with an area under the receiving operator characteristic curve of 0.768 (95% CI 0.722 to 0.814) and agreement between the observed and expected probabilities. Furthermore, it demonstrated better discrimination and calibration than the FRAX tool, improving the classification of over 35% of individuals with fragility fractures compared to FRAX. Our prediction model demonstrated accuracy in predicting the long-term risk of fragility fractures. It can assist in making personalized intervention decisions for individuals with HIV and could potentially replace the current tools recommended for fracture risk assessment in this population. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Current guidelines recommend screening people with HIV (PWH) for bone disease using predictive tools developed for the general population, although data on PWH are scarce. In this study, we assessed the performance of FRAX and QFracture scoring systems to predict the occurrence of fragility fractures in a prospective cohort of 17,671 adults with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) included in the HIV/AIDS research network (CoRIS) in Spain. The survival estimates of fragility fractures during follow-up were calculated and FRAX and QFracture scores were computed at cohort inclusion. For both tools, discriminatory measures and the observed-to-expected (O/E) ratios were assessed. During a follow-up time of 42,411.55 person-years, 113 fragility fractures were recorded. Areas under the curve were 0.66 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.61-0.71] for FRAX and 0.67 (95% CI 0.62-0.73) for QFracture for major osteoporotic fractures, and 0.72 (95% CI 0.57-0.88) and 0.81 (95% CI 0.68-0.95) for hip fracture, respectively. The O/E was 1.67 for FRAX and 5.49 for QFracture for major osteoporotic fractures, and 11.23 for FRAX and 4.87 for QFracture for hip fractures. Moreover, O/E raised as the risk increased for both tools and in almost all age groups. When using the recommended assessment thresholds, <6% and 10% of major osteoporotic and hip fractures would have been identified, respectively. In conclusion, FRAX and QFracture displayed acceptable discrimination, although both tools significantly underestimated the risk of fragility fractures in PWH. The recommended assessment thresholds may not be appropriate for this population as they were unable to identify individuals with fragility fractures during follow-up.

Abstract
People living with HIV-1 and HTLV-2 concomitantly show slower CD4+ T cell depletion and AIDS progression, more frequency of the natural control of HIV-1, and lower mortality rates. A similar beneficial effect of this infection has been reported on HCV coinfection reducing transaminases, increasing the spontaneous clearance of HCV infection and delaying the development of hepatic fibrosis. Given the critical role of CD8+ T cells in controlling HIV-1 infection, we analysed the role of CD8+ T cell-mediated cytotoxic activity in coinfected individuals living with HIV-1. One hundred and twenty-eight individuals living with HIV-1 in four groups were studied: two groups with HTLV-2 infection, including individuals with HCV infection (N = 41) and with a sustained virological response (SVR) after HCV treatment (N = 25); and two groups without HTLV-2 infection, including individuals with HCV infection (N = 25) and with a sustained virological response after treatment (N = 37). We found that CD8+ T cell-mediated HIV-1 inhibition in vitro was higher in individuals with HTLV-2. This inhibition activity was associated with a higher frequency of effector memory CD8+ T cells, higher levels of granzyme A and granzyme B cytolytic enzymes, and perforin. Hence, cellular and soluble cytolytic factors may contribute to the lower HIV-1 pre-ART viral load and the HIV-1 proviral load during ART therapy associated with HTLV-2 infection. Herein, we confirmed and expanded previous findings on the role of HTLV-2 in the beneficial effect on the pathogenesis of HIV-1 in coinfected individuals.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In people living with HIV (PLWH), bone mineral density (BMD) discordance between the lumbar spine (LS) and femoral neck (FN) could be frequent given the high frequency of secondary osteoporosis, including HIV-related factors for bone disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective cohort of PLWH with a dual X-ray absorptiometry scan. Hip-spine BMD discordance was defined as different T-score or Z-scores categories at LS and FN. RESULTS Overall, 865 individuals (mean 49.5 years, female 27%) were included. Osteoporosis diagnosis was four-to-seven times lower when both skeletal sites were affected than when considering the lowest T-score at any site (overall, 21% vs 4%). Hip-spine BMD discordance was observed in 381 (44%) individuals, it increased with age (from 43 to 52%, P = 0.032), and it was mainly due to lower LS-BMD. A lower FN-BMD was associated with older age, lower BMI (P < 0.01), and HIV-related factors, such as low CD4 + T-cell counts, duration of HIV infection, and time on antiretroviral therapy (ART). In a multivariate regression analysis, sex male (Odds Ratio, OR 4.901), hyperparathyroidism (OR, 2.364), and time on ART (OR 1.005 per month) were independently associated with discordance. A higher estimated fracture risk by FRAX equation was observed in individuals with BMD discordance due to lower FN-BMD compared to those with lower LS-BMD (+ 36% for major osteoporotic fracture, P = 0.04; + 135% for hip fracture, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Hip-spine BMD discordance is highly prevalent in PLWH and it is associated with classical and HIV-related risk factors, modifying the rate of osteoporosis and fracture risk estimation.

Abstract
Objectives We assessed the prevalence of anti‐hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibodies and active HCV infection (HCV‐RNA‐positive) in people living with HIV (PLWH) in Spain in 2019 and compared the results with those of four similar studies performed during 2015–2018. Methods The study was performed in 41 centres. Sample size was estimated for an accuracy of 1%. Patients were selected by random sampling with proportional allocation. Results The reference population comprised 41 973 PLWH, and the sample size was 1325. HCV serostatus was known in 1316 PLWH (99.3%), of whom 376 (28.6%) were HCV antibody (Ab)‐positive (78.7% were prior injection drug users); 29 were HCV‐RNA‐positive (2.2%). Of the 29 HCV‐RNA‐positive PLWH, infection was chronic in 24, it was acute/recent in one, and it was of unknown duration in four. Cirrhosis was present in 71 (5.4%) PLWH overall, three (10.3%) HCV‐RNA‐positive patients and 68 (23.4%) of those who cleared HCV after anti‐HCV therapy (p = 0.04). The prevalence of anti‐HCV antibodies decreased steadily from 37.7% in 2015 to 28.6% in 2019 (p < 0.001); the prevalence of active HCV infection decreased from 22.1% in 2015 to 2.2% in 2019 (p < 0.001). Uptake of anti‐HCV treatment increased from 53.9% in 2015 to 95.0% in 2019 (p < 0.001). Conclusions In Spain, the prevalence of active HCV infection among PLWH at the end of 2019 was 2.2%, i.e. 90.0% lower than in 2015. Increased exposure to DAAs was probably the main reason for this sharp reduction. Despite the high coverage of treatment with direct‐acting antiviral agents, HCV‐related cirrhosis remains significant in this population.

Abstract
In this pilot program of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) for the screening of lung cancer (LC) in a targeted population of people with HIV (PWH), its prevalence was 3.6%; the number needed to screen in order to detect one case of lung cancer was 28, clearly outweighing the risks associated with lung cancer screening. While data from additional cohorts with longitudinal measurements are needed, PWH are a target population for lung cancer screening with LDCT.

Abstract
Background Darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) is the reference for combination therapy based on protease inhibitors due to its efficacy, tolerability, and convenience. Head-to-head randomized comparisons between D/C/F/TAF and combination therapy based on integrase inhibitors in antiretroviral-naive patients are lacking. Methods Adult (>18 years old) human immunodeficiency virus-infected antiretroviral-naive patients (HLA-B∗5701 negative and hepatitis B virus negative), with viral load (VL) ≥500 c/mL, were centrally randomized to initiate D/C/F/TAF or dolutegravir/abacavir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC/ABC) after stratifying by VL and CD4 count. Clinical and analytical assessments were performed at weeks 0, 4, 12, 24, and 48. The primary endpoint was VL <50 c/mL at week 48 in the intention-to-treat (ITT)-exposed population (US Food and Drug Administration snapshot analysis, 10% noninferiority margin). Results Between September 2018 and 2019, 316 patients were randomized and 306 patients were included in the ITT-exposed analysis (151 D/C/F/TAF and 155 DTG/3TC/ABC). Almost all (94%) participants were male and their median age was 35 years. Forty percent had a baseline VL >100 000 copies/mL, and 13% had <200 CD4 cells/μL. Median weight was 73 kg and median body mass index was 24 kg/m2. At 48 weeks, 79% (D/C/F/TAF) versus 82% (DTG/3TC/ABC) had VL <50 c/mL (difference, −2.4%; 95% confidence interval [CI], −11.3 to 6.6). Eight percent versus four percent experienced virologic failure but no resistance-associated mutations emerged. Four percent versus six percent had drug discontinuation due to adverse events. In the per-protocol analysis, 94% versus 96% of patients had VL <50 c/mL (difference, −2%; 95% CI, −8.1 to 3.5). There were no differences in CD4 cell count or weight changes. Conclusions We could not demonstrate the noninferiority of D/C/F/TAF relative to DTG/ABC/3TC as initial antiretroviral therapy, although both regimens were similarly well tolerated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS There are no population data on bone mass in individuals with HIV in Spain, adjusted for age and sex. MATERIALS AND METHODS Bone mineral density (BMD) data were obtained by dual X-ray absorptiometry in a cohort of individuals with HIV infection compared with cohort data from the general population in Spain and the United States of America. RESULTS Of 928 individuals (mean 46 years, 25% women), the prevalence of osteoporosis in the lumbar spine/femoral neck was 18%/5% in men, and 17%/10% in women, respectively. The rate increased from the age of 40 in men and from 50 in women (osteoporosis in 20% and 27%, respectively). BMD was lower than that observed in the general population in almost all age groups (mean, -6%; between 0%-11% lower compared to the Spanish cohort, and -8%; between 0%-14% lower than the American cohort). CONCLUSIONS Our cohort of individuals with HIV had a lower BMD in all age groups after adjustment for age and sex, compared with the general population. This fact must be considered when making recommendations.

Abstract
People with HIV (PWH) might have a higher risk of adverse coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outcomes. Several scores were developed to predict COVID-19 progression to critical disease and are often used among PWH. We assessed the performance of two commonly used risk equations among PWH and COVID-19. Participants were identified from a multicenter cohort of 6,361 PWH on regular follow-up at 2 university hospitals. Of 99 HIV-infected individuals with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, 63 had complete data and were included in this analysis. CALL and COVID-GRAM scores were calculated and participants were stratified into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups for each. Discrimination was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves. Calibration was evaluated using observed versus expected (O:E) ratios and the Hosmer-Lemeshow χ2 goodness-of-fit statistic. Scores were adjusted by increasing one category level in individuals with nadir CD4 lymphocyte count <200/μL. Participants had a median nadir and current CD4 counts of 207 [interquartile range (IQR) 119-345] and 440 (IQR 280-719) cells/μL. Ten (15.9%) individuals progressed to critical disease and 4 (6.3%) died. Assessed scores showed acceptable discrimination (area under the curve 0.701-0.771) and were overall calibrated (O:E ratio 1.01). However, both overestimated the risk of progression among individuals in the low- and high-risk categories, whereas they underestimated the risk in the intermediate category (O:E 1.20-1.21). Thus, 50% of critically ill individuals were not identified as high risk. Assigning PWH with low nadir CD4 counts a higher risk of progression reduced the proportion of individuals not identified to 20%. COVID-19 risk scores had lower performance in PWH compared with that described in the general population and failed to adequately identify individuals who progressed to critical disease. Adjustment for nadir CD4 partially improved their accuracy. Risk equations incorporating HIV-related factors are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transmission of resistance mutations to integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) in HIV-infected patients may compromise the efficacy of first-line antiretroviral regimens currently recommended worldwide. Continued surveillance of transmitted drug resistance (TDR) is thus warranted. OBJECTIVES We evaluated the rates and effects on virological outcomes of TDR in a 96 week prospective multicentre cohort study of ART-naive HIV-1-infected subjects initiating INSTI-based ART in Spain between April 2015 and December 2016. METHODS Pre-ART plasma samples were genotyped for integrase, protease and reverse transcriptase resistance using Sanger population sequencing or MiSeq™ using a ≥ 20% mutant sensitivity cut-off. Those present at 1%-19% of the virus population were considered to be low-frequency variants. RESULTS From a total of 214 available samples, 173 (80.8%), 210 (98.1%) and 214 (100.0%) were successfully amplified for integrase, reverse transcriptase and protease genes, respectively. Using a Sanger-like cut-off, the overall prevalence of any TDR, INSTI-, NRTI-, NNRTI- and protease inhibitor (PI)-associated mutations was 13.1%, 1.7%, 3.8%, 7.1% and 0.9%, respectively. Only three (1.7%) subjects had INSTI TDR (R263K, E138K and G163R), while minority variants with integrase TDR were detected in 9.6% of subjects. There were no virological failures during 96 weeks of follow-up in subjects harbouring TDR as majority variants. CONCLUSIONS Transmitted INSTI resistance remains rare in Spain and, to date, is not associated with virological failure to first-line INSTI-based regimens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A low CD4/CD8 ratio during antiretroviral therapy (ART) identifies people with heightened immunosenescence and increased risk of mortality. We aimed to assess the effects of integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI)-based, protease inhibitor-based, or non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-based first-line ART on long-term CD4/CD8 ratio recovery. METHODS This prospective cohort study included 13 026 individuals with HIV registered in the Spanish HIV Research Network (CoRIS) cohort recruited from 45 Spanish hospitals. We included HIV-positive people who started triple ART (two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors [NRTI] with a NNRTI, protease inhibitor, or INSTI) and had HIV RNA suppression within 48 weeks. We used piecewise linear mixed models adjusted for potential confounders to compare longitudinal changes in the CD4/CD8 ratio between people receiving three different types of ART. We used Cox proportional-hazard models to compare the times to CD4/CD8 normalisation between the treatment groups, using cutoff ratios of 0·4, 1·0, and 1·5. FINDINGS 6804 individuals contributing 37 149 persons-years and 37 680 observations were analysed; median follow-up was 49 months (IQR 22-89). INSTI-based ART was associated with greater CD4/CD8 gain (change per year compared with INSTI was coefficient -0·07 [95% CI -0·08 to -0·06] for NNRTI and was -0·08 [-0·09 to -0·08] for protease inhibitors). Differences were observed from the first year of therapy and were driven by changes in both CD4 and CD8 cell counts. Subanalyses at different time periods suggested that these differences were driven by changes during the first year of ART without significant differences in the adjusted CD4/CD8 ratio trajectories after the second year of ART (change per year compared with INSTI was coefficient -0·03 [95% CI -0·05 to -0·13] for NNRTI and was -0·06 [95% CI -0·08 to -0·04] for protease inhibitors). Although no differences in the time until CD4/CD8 normalisation at a cutoff ratio of no less than 0·4 were reported between any of the groups, compared with the INSTI group, both the NNRTI and protease inhibitor groups showed lower rates of normalisation at cutoff ratios of 1·0 or more (adjusted hazard ratio 0·80 [95% CI 0·72-0·89] for the NNRTI group and 0·79 [0·69-0·89] for the protease inhibitor group), and 1·5 or more (0·79 [0·65-0·95] for the NNRTI group and 0·78 [0·64-0·97] for the protease inhibitor group). No differences were found between the different integrases in the time until CD4/CD8 normalisation. Subanalyses adjusted for the backbone NRTIs and allowing observations after virological failure yielded similar results. INTERPRETATION This study provides new evidence that reinforces the positioning of INSTI-based therapies as a first choice and underlines the importance of analysing the effects of therapeutic interventions on biomarkers linked with morbidity and mortality beyond the plasma HIV RNA and the CD4 cell counts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few women have been included in darunavir/cobicistat clinical development studies, and hardly any of them were antiretroviral experienced or treated with anything other than triple-based therapies. OBJECTIVES Our aim was to increase our knowledge about women living with HIV undergoing darunavir/cobicistat-based regimens. METHODS A multicentre (21 hospitals), retrospective study including a centrally selected random sample of HIV-1 patients starting a darunavir/cobicistat-based regimen from June 2014 to March 2017 was planned. Baseline characteristics, 24 and 48 week viral load response (<50 copies/mL), CD4+ lymphocyte count increase, time to change darunavir/cobicistat and adverse event occurrence were all compared by sex. The study was approved by each of the 21 ethics committees, and patients signed informed consent. RESULTS Out of 761 participants, 193 were women. Similar characteristics were found for both sexes, except that the women had a longer duration of HIV infection (P = 0.001), and were less frequently pre-treated with darunavir/cobicistat in their previous regimen (P = 0.02). The main reason for using a darunavir/cobicistat-based regimen was simplification, without differences by sex, while monotherapy seems to be more frequently prescribed in women than in men (P = 0.067). The main outcomes, HIV viral load response, CD4+ lymphocyte count increase at 24 or 48 weeks, occurrence of adverse events, main reasons for changing and time to the modify darunavir/cobicistat regimen, did not show differences between the sexes. CONCLUSIONS No sex disparities were found in the main study outcomes. These results support the use of a darunavir/cobicistat-based regimen in long-term pre-treated women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among HIV-infected individuals, screening for bone disease is encouraged to assess reversible risk factors and plan therapeutic interventions. OBJECTIVE We assessed the usefulness of Fracture Risk Assessment (FRAX) tool to identify candidates for dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan, or individuals with bone loss progression. We further explored how secondary causes of osteoporosis are reflected on FRAX. METHODS Longitudinal study of 217 consecutive individuals (mean, 45.8 years, 24% females) included after DXA scan. FRAX was calculated without/with femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD), checking the box of "secondary osteoporosis" for all the individuals. RESULTS Low BMD was observed in 133/217 (61%) individuals, of whom 98.5% had not been selected as candidates for DXA by current FRAX thresholds. Specifically, 23% of individuals aged <50 had low BMD but none was candidate for DXA. Adding BMD data, FRAX results increased by 50-100%, with 2/217 individuals (1%) above the thresholds. Classical and HIV-related secondary causes of osteoporosis (observed in 98% overall) correlated with low BMD, modifying significantly FRAX results (HCV coinfection, +124%; longer time of HIV infection, +93%; longer time on antiretroviral therapy, +147%; tenofovir exposure +36%). Individuals with lower BMD and higher FRAX results at inclusion had less bone decline in a follow-up DXA after a median of 3.5 years. CONCLUSIONS Currently recommended FRAX thresholds are not useful to select candidates for DXA scan, which could delay its performance in a population with a high prevalence of secondary factors for low BMD. Classical and HIV-related factors alter BMD and fracture risk estimation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dual therapies decrease toxicity, pill-burden and treatment-associated cost. The combination of high genetic barrier drugs such as dolutegravir plus boosted-darunavir may be suitable as simplification regimen for patients harbouring multidrug-resistant virus. METHODS Patients switched to a once-daily regimen consisting of dolutegravir plus darunavir, boosted with cobicistat or ritonavir, were included in this cohort study. The primary end point was the proportion of patients with HIV RNA viral load <37 copies/ml at week 48 (NCT02491242). RESULTS Overall, 51 patients were enrolled. At baseline, all patients had failed to ≥2 antiretroviral classes. Genotypic resistance profiles showed a mean of primary mutations of 1.2 for non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, 2.4 for nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors and 3.5 for protease inhibitors (PIs), but they were virologically suppressed for a median of 33 months (IQR 12-60). Only five patients had reduced sensitivity to darunavir and mean genotypic susceptibility score of dual therapy was 1.95 over 2. At week 48, there were no virological failures, three patients discontinued the regimen due to neuropsychiatric adverse events, two were lost to follow-up, and therefore the efficacy was 90% (95% CI, 82, 99%, intention-to-treat analysis). Mean estimated glomerular filtration rate decreased by 8.8 ml/min/1.73 m2, though kidney tubular parameters, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol and triglycerides levels improved after switching to dual therapy. CONCLUSIONS In highly treatment-experienced patients who were virologically suppressed, switching to the combination of dolutegravir plus boosted-darunavir dual therapy was effective and well tolerated, improving lipid and renal parameters.

Abstract
Background Information about incidence, clinical characteristics, and outcomes of HIV-infected individuals with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection is scarce. We characterised individuals with COVID-19 among a cohort of HIV-infected adults in Madrid. Methods In this observational prospective study, we included all consecutive HIV-infected individuals (aged ≥18 years) who had suspected or confirmed COVID-19 as of April 30, 2020, at the Hospital Universitario Ramón y Cajal (Madrid, Spain). We compared the characteristics of HIV-infected individuals with COVID-19 with a sample of HIV-infected individuals assessed before the COVID-19 pandemic, and described the outcomes of individuals with COVID-19. Findings 51 HIV-infected individuals were diagnosed with COVID-19 (incidence 1·8%, 95% CI 1·3–2·3). Mean age of patients was 53·3 years (SD 9·5); eight (16%) were women, and 43 (84%) men. 35 (69%) cases of co-infection had laboratory confirmed COVID-19, and 28 (55%) required hospital admission. Age and CD4 cell counts in 51 patients diagnosed with COVID-19 were similar to those in 1288 HIV-infected individuals without; however, 32 (63%) with COVID-19 had at least one comorbidity (mostly hypertension and diabetes) compared with 495 (38%) without COVID-19 (p=0·00059). 37 (73%) patients had received tenofovir before COVID-19 diagnosis compared with 487 (38%) of those without COVID-19 (p=0·0036); 11 (22%) in the COVID-19 group had previous protease inhibitor use (mostly darunavir) compared with 175 (14%; p=0·578). Clinical, analytical, and radiological presentation of COVID-19 in HIV-infected individuals was similar to that described in the general population. Six (12%) individuals were critically ill, two of whom had CD4 counts of less than 200 cells per μL, and two (4%) died. SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR remained positive after a median of 40 days from symptoms onset in six (32%) individuals, four of whom had severe disease or low nadir CD4 cell counts. Interpretation HIV-infected individuals should not be considered to be protected from SARS-CoV-2 infection or to have lower risk of severe disease. Generally, they should receive the same treatment approach applied to the general population. Funding None.

Abstract
The CD4/CD8 ratio is an indirect marker of immune activation, immune senescence, and inflammation in HIV infection. We performed a prospective study of the CD4/CD8 ratio evolution in 245 virally-suppressed (median, 55 months) HIV-infected patients (29% females) who had switched to four dual antiretroviral regimens. At baseline, the median CD4/CD8 ratio was 0.71 (interquartile range, IQR, 0.46-0.97), associated with duration of HIV infection, nadir CD4+ cell count, and AIDS diagnosis. It was lower in the case of hepatitis C virus coinfection and cardiovascular disease (p = 0.09), but the ratio was higher in patients with chronic kidney disease, proteinuria, or osteoporosis. At 48 weeks, the median CD4/CD8 ratio increased by 3% (+0.02; IQR, -0.07, +0.09; p = 0.07); greater improvement was observed in patients with lower baseline ratios and previous AIDS diagnosis. The slope of increase was slower in patients with the highest baseline values. Also, there were no differences in the CD4/CD8 ratio increase according to type of dual regimen, after adjusting for baseline and HIV-related values. In conclusion, CD4/CD8 ratio increase is observed during suppressive dual regimens, and its extent is related to baseline values and previous HIV-related factors. Longer duration on antiretroviral therapy and drug toxicity could affect the evolution of this marker in the presence of comorbidities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dual therapies have been tested in selected patients, but there is no evidence for its advantages in clinical practice. The aim of this study was to evaluate in the clinical setting the long-term outcomes and the impacts on comorbidities of a dual therapy based on lamivudine plus darunavir boosted with ritonavir (DRV/r). METHODS A prospective cohort study of 106 patients who were switched to this dual regimen from April 2014 to December 2017 because of renal and bone toxicity, intolerance, or physician's decision was conducted. The primary study endpoint was the proportion of patients who were free of treatment failure at 48 and 96 weeks. RESULTS The mean age was 50 years, and 64% were hepatitis C virus-coinfected. At 48 weeks, the efficacy was 95% (95% confidence interval, 91-99%; ITT-e analysis; two changes due to toxicity, three because of drug-drug interactions -DDIs-). At week 96, 26 patients (25%) had discontinued this therapy (two virologic failures, one additional adverse event, 18 therapy changes to avoid DDIs). An increase in lipid parameters was observed during the first 6-12 months in the group discontinuing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (p < .01), which was partly corrected at 96 weeks. Improvements in CD4/CD8 ratio (p = .04), bone mineral density (+1.17%; p = .07), estimated glomerular filtration rate (+7.7 mL/min in CKD patients; p = .02), urinary parameters (proteinuria, -23%), and overall cost (-43%) were observed. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrated the long-term efficacy and safety of an antiretroviral regimen based on dual therapy with lamivudine plus boosted darunavir in the clinical setting.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We investigated the reversibility of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-associated renal decline and tubular dysfunction using different antiretroviral strategies. METHODS A successive evaluation of renal [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)] and tubular (phosphataemia, proteinuria, albuminuria, phosphaturia, uricosuria, glycosuria and tubular proteinuria) parameters was performed in 231 patients, before and after switching from TDF to abacavir (n = 60), using dual therapy (n = 49), or continuing the same regimen including TDF (n = 122). RESULTS In a successive evaluation after a median of 8.86 months, or less time if treatment was switched (4.8 months vs. 13.3 months to second evaluation; P < 0.01), a significant improvement in eGFR (median change +0.3 vs. -2.91 mL/min/1.73 m2 in patients who did not discontinue TDF; P = 0.04) and tubular dysfunction (median change -40% vs. +30%, respectively; P < 0.01) was observed. Lineal regression showed that age (β = -0.14; P = 0.04), previous eGFR decline (β = -0.42; P < 0.01), and time on TDF (β = -0.19; P = 0.04) were associated with impaired eGFR recovery. There were no differences in eGFR slopes between patients using abacavir instead of TDF and those using a dual therapy, who showed similar improvement in proteinuria (-22% vs. -19%, respectively), phosphaturia (+10.1% vs. +9.4%, respectively), and urinary beta-2-microglobulin (-9% vs. -15%, respectively; P > 0.1 for all), although patients receiving the dual regimen were more heavily pretreated. A eGFR decrease (-6.17 mL/min/1.73 m2 ) was observed in patients taking dolutegravir or rilpivirine, but with similar improvement to that observed in the rest of switching patients in tubular abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate discontinuation was associated with a rapid and significant improvement in eGFR and tubular abnormalities, regardless of whether abacavir or dual therapy was chosen. Switching to a regimen that included dolutegravir and/or rilpivirine was associated with a eGFR decrease without differences in the rate of tubular dysfunction improvement in comparison with the rest of patients who discontinued tenofovir.

Abstract
Background We assessed the prevalence of antibodies against hepatitis C virus (HCV-Abs) and active HCV infection in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in Spain in 2016 and compared the results with those of similar studies performed in 2002, 2009, and 2015. Methods The study was performed in 43 centers during October-November 2016. The sample was estimated for an accuracy of 2% and selected by proportional allocation and simple random sampling. During 2016, criteria for therapy based on direct-acting antiviral agents (DAA) were at least significant liver fibrosis, severe extrahepatic manifestations of HCV, and high risk of HCV transmissibility. Results The reference population and the sample size were 38904 and 1588 patients, respectively. The prevalence of HCV-Abs in 2002, 2009, 2015, and 2016 was 60.8%, 50.2%, 37.7%, and 34.6%, respectively (P trend <.001, from 2002 to 2015). The prevalence of active HCV in 2002, 2009, 2015, and 2016 was 54.0%, 34.0%, 22.1%, and 11.7%, respectively (P trend <.001). The anti-HCV treatment uptake in 2002, 2009, 2015, and 2016 was 23.0%, 48.0%, 59.3%, and 74.7%, respectively (P trend <.001). In 2016, HCV-related cirrhosis was present in 7.6% of all HIV-infected individuals, 15.0% of patients with active HCV, and 31.5% of patients who cleared HCV after anti-HCV therapy. Conclusions Our findings suggest that with universal access to DAA-based therapy and continued efforts in prevention and screening, it will be possible to eliminate active HCV among HIV-infected individuals in Spain in the short term. However, the burden of HCV-related cirrhosis will continue to be significant among HIV-infected individuals.

Abstract
Multidrug and extensively resistant tuberculosis are especially severe forms of the disease for which no efficacious therapy exists in many cases. All the countries in the world have registered cases, although most of them are diagnosed in resource-limited countries from Asia, Africa and South America. For adequate treatment, first- and second-line antituberculosis drugs have to be judiciously used, but the development of new drugs with full activity, good tolerability and little toxicity is urgently needed. There are some drugs in development, some of which are already available through expanded-access programs.

Abstract
Background. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibodies (Abs) and active HCV infection in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected (HIV+) patients in Spain in 2015. This was a cross-sectional study. Methods. The study was performed in 41 centers in 2015. Sample size was estimated for an accuracy of 2%, the number of patients from each hospital was determined by proportional allocation, and patients were selected using simple random sampling. Results. The reference population was 35 791 patients, and the sample size was 1867 patients. Hepatitis C virus serostatus was known in 1843 patients (98.7%). Hepatitis C virus-Abs were detected in 695 patients (37.7%), in whom the main route of HIV acquisition was injection drug use (75.4%). Of these 695 patients, 402 had HCV RNA, 170 had had a sustained viral response (SVR) after anti-HCV therapy, and 102 cleared HCV spontaneously. Hepatitis C virus-ribonucleic acid results were unknown in 21 cases. Genotype distribution (known in 367 patients) was 1a in 143 patients (39.0%), 4 in 90 (24.5%) patients, 1b in 69 (18.8%) patients, 3 in 57 (15.5%) patients, 2 in 5 (1.4%) patients, and mixed in 3 (0.8%) patients. Liver cirrhosis was present in 93 patients (23.1%) with active HCV infection and in 39 (22.9%) patients with SVR after anti-HCV therapy. Conclusions. The prevalence of HCV-Abs and active HCV infection in HIV+ patients in Spain is 37.7% and 22.1%, respectively; these figures are significantly lower than those recorded in 2002 and 2009. The predominant genotypes in patients with active HCV infection were 1a and 4. A high percentage of patients had cirrhosis. Cirrhosis is also common in patients with SVR after anti-HCV therapy.
