Vitamin B12 in HIV-Infected Patients with Insulin Resistance and Visceral Adiposity in a Randomized Trial of Recombinant Human Growth Hormone and Rosiglitazone (OR12-05-19)

摘要

ObjectivesTo 1) examine the burden of vitamin B12 deficiency, 2) determine the effects of recombinant growth hormone and rosiglitazone on vitamin B12 status, and 3) investigate vitamin B12 status as a risk factor for changes in insulin sensitivity (SI) and visceral adipose tissue (VAT), among HIV-infected patients with insulin resistance and visceral adiposity participating in a randomized controlled trial.
