Trends in the risk of myocardial infarction among HIV-1-infected individuals relative to the general population in France: Impact of gender and immune status

摘要

We examined trends in the MI incidence and age at MI diagnosis among adults living with HIV-1 between 2000 and 2009, by comparison with the French MI registries, by gender. Age standardized incidence rates and standardized incidence-ratios (SIRs) were estimated for individuals included in the French hospital database on HIV (n = 71 204, MI = 663) during three periods: 2000–2002, 2003–2005 and 2006–2009. Median ages at MI diagnosis were compared using the Brown-Mood test. Over the study periods, the absolute rate difference and relative risks were higher in women than in men in 2000–2002 and 2006–2009, with respective SIRs 1.99 (1.39–2.75) and 1.12 (0.99–1.27) in 2006–2009. The trends were different for men and women with a decreasing trend in SIRs in men and no change in women. In both sexes, among individuals with CD4 ≥500/μL and controlled viral-load on cART, the risk was no longer elevated. Age at MI diagnosis was significantly younger than in the general population, especially among women (-6.2 years, p<0.001; men: -2.1 years, p = 0.02). In HIV-1-positive adults, absolute rate difference and relative risks and trends of MI were different between men and women and there was no additional risk among individuals on effective cART.
