Background. The present study examines the association between carotid and coronary atherosclerosis and metabolic syndrome in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected adults.Methods. We measured the common and internal carotid intima-media thickness (c-IMT) using B-mode ultrasonography, and we measured coronary artery calcium (CAC) using high-resolution, electrocardiographic, synchronized, computed tomography, for 314 HIV-infected men and women. Metabolic syndrome was defined by National Cholesterol Education Program/Adult Treatment Panel III criteria. We compared the c-IMT measurements and CAC scores of patients with metabolic syndrome with the scores of those without metabolic syndrome using a Wilcoxon test for continuous variables and a x 2 test for categorical variables. To examine the association between surrogate markers and metabolic syndrome, we used logistic regression analysis.Results. Participants with metabolic syndrome were more likely to have a common c-IMT measurement > 0.8 mm than were those without metabolic syndrome (17% vs. 7%;), but both groups were equally likely to P =. 009 have an internal c-IMT measurement 11.0 mm (20% vs. 13%;). Any positive CAC score was more likely Pp. 15 to occur for participants with metabolic syndrome (80.3% vs. 46.7%;). In a multivariate model adjusted P < .0001 for sex, age, ethnicity, and smoking status, participants with metabolic syndrome were more likely than those without metabolic syndrome to have an abnormal common c-IMT measurement (odds ratio [OR], 2.9; Pp) and detectable CAC scores (OR, 4.9;) but not a higher internal c-IMT measurement (OR, 1.6;.020 P =.0001). P=. 255Conclusion. Our study demonstrates that HIV-infected individuals with metabolic syndrome may be at increased risk for subclinical atherosclerosis and supports screening for metabolic syndrome among HIV-infected patients at risk for cardiovascular disease.
