Description

Abstract
Antiretroviral therapy (art) has dramatically changed the health outcomes of people with HIV (PWH). Newer art regimens with more robust viral suppression may allow complacency creep for imperfect adherence, given the regimen forgiveness for achieving suppressed viral loads despite imperfect adherence. In turn, imperfect adherence may lead to ongoing viral replication below the clinically-relevant suppression threshold, driving inflammation and premature aging. Accumulating data indicate that underlying inflammation strongly contributes to PWH continuing to develop non-communicable diseases (NCD) despite viral suppression, with studies showing a 2-fold increased risk of a significant NCD, HIV-associated stroke, compared to people without HIV. HIV-associated stroke is associated with major mortality, morbidity, and healthcare economic burden. The current investigators found a stroke prevalence of 6.2% in south african PWH with suppressed viral loads compared to people without HIV. PWH were almost 10 years younger, had less traditional cardiovascular risk factors, and were predominantly female, despite being virally suppressed to
