BACKGROUND: After the introduction of antiretroviral therapy, the life expectancy of HIV patients has increased to more than 30 years after initial diagnosis. Cardiovascular disease now is an important cause of death in HIV-infected patients.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: In the multicenter, prospective HIV-HEART study, 222 (38 %) patients suffered from lipodystrophy. Women were more often affected than men (41.5 % vs. 25.3 %). Patients with lipodystrophy were on average 5 years older and had been infected longer (10.4 vs. 6.6 years) then patients without lipodystrophy.
RESULTS: Lipodystrophy in HIV patients was a clinical sign of cardiovascular risk factors like hyperlipidemia (total cholesterol 19 mg/dl higher, HDL 2.8 mg/dl lower, triglycerides 53 mg/dl higher) and type 2 diabetes (11.3 % vs. 2.8 %). Patients with lipodystrophy were more likely to be co-infected with hepatitis B (34.7 % vs. 28.8 %, p = 0.122) or C (13.1 % vs. 9.3 %, p = 0.16) than patients without lipodystrophy. The quality of life was reduced in patients with lipodystrophy. In 6 of 8 scales of the SF-36 questionnaire, patients with lipodystrophy had lower scores.
CONCLUSIONS: Lipodystrophy syndrome is an early warning system for a number of illnesses which reduce life expectancy. Dermatologists must help insure that HIV-infected patients receive treatment for these disorders.
