BACKGROUND: Chronic renal failure and HIV/AIDS are both prevalent in Nigeria. We performed a cross-sectional analysis of renal function in newly diagnosed, treatment-naive HIV-infected patients before initiating highly active antiretroviral therapy.METHODS: Treatment-inexperienced individuals were recruited. Patients with diabetes mellitus and hypertension were excluded. Plasma creatinine level was used to measure the estimated glomerular filtration rate ([eGFR] by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation). Predictors of creatinine and eGFR were determined by univariate and multivariate analyses.RESULTS: We evaluated 183 patients. In all, 44 (24%) patients had a GFR
