Persons living with HIV (PLWH) and co-infected with hepatitis C (PLWH+HCV) have increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Peri-coronary inflammation, measured by fat attenuation index (FAI) on coronary CT angiography (CCTA), independently predicts cardiovascular risk in the general population but has not been studied in the PLWH+HCV population. We tested whether peri-coronary inflammation is increased in PLWH or PLWH+HCV, and whether inflammation changes over time. Cross-sectional analysis to determine FAI differences among groups. Longitudinal analysis in PLWH to assess changes in inflammation over time. Age- and sex-matched seropositive groups (PLWH and PLWH+HCV) virologically suppressed on antiretroviral therapy (ART), HCV viremic, and without prior CVD and matched controls underwent CCTA. Peri-coronary FAI was measured around the proximal right coronary artery (RCA) and left anterior descending artery (LAD). Follow-up CCTA was performed in 22 PLWH after 20.6–27.4 months. 101 participants (48 women) were studied (60 PLWH, 19 PLWH+HCV and 22 controls). In adjusted analyses, peri-coronary FAI did not differ between seropositive groups and controls. Low attenuation coronary plaque was significantly less common in seropositive groups compared to controls (LAD, p=0.035; and RCA, p=0.017, respectively). Peri-coronary FAI values significantly progressed between baseline and follow-up in PLWH (RCA: p=0.001, LAD: p=<0.001). PLWH and PLWH+HCV without history of CVD do not have significantly worse peri-coronary inflammation, assessed by FAI, compared to matched controls. However, peri-coronary inflammation in mono-infected PLWH significantly increased over approximately 22 months. FAI measures may be an important imaging biomarker for tracking asymptomatic CVD progression in PLWH.
