Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
Incidences of many cardiovascular diseases reduced after the induction of anti-retroviral therapy in the treatment of HIV infection. Before the introduction of HAART the incidence of various cardiovascular diseases were as follows:
- Dilated cardiomyopathy - 1590 per 100,000
- Systemic hypertension - 20,000 - 25,000 per 100,000. After the introduction of HAART the incidence increased significantly to 74,000 per 100,000 [1].
- Pericarditis - 11,000 per 100,000
- HIV-associated pulmonary artery hypertension - 500 per 100,000
- Kaposi's sarcoma of the heart - 12,000 - 28,000 per 100,000
