Overview
Risk factors include those associated with HIV like viral load, CD4 count, duration of HIV infection, and those that are traditionally associated with cardiovascular diseases like dyslipidemia, smoking, obesity.
Risk Factors
Risk factors associated with increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases in AIDS include:
- Low socio-economic status
- CD4 cell count
- Viral load
- Duration of HIV infection
- IV drug abuse [1]
- Traditional risk factors like [2][3][4]
- Elderly age
