Dyslipidemia is a common complication among HIV-infected children after antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, HIV itself can cause abnormal lipid metabolism. There is limited information of lipid profile among Asian HIV-infected children naïve to ART. 274 HIV-infected ART-naïve Thai and Cambodian children 1–12 years of age with CD4 between 15–24% were included. Patients were fasted for ≥ 4 hours before blood was drawn. Abnormal lipid level was defined as triglyceride (TG) > 130 mg/dL, total cholesterol (TC) > 200 mg/dL, low density lipoprotein (LDL) > 130 mg/dL, and high density lipoprotein (HDL) ≤ 40 mg/dL. The mean (SD) was 76.6 (33.8) months for age and −1.3 (1.0) for weight Z-score. Mean (SD) CD4% was 19.9 (4.8) % and HIV RNA was 4.6 (0.6) log10 copies/ml. The median (SD) fasting time was 13.0 (2.7) hours. Mean (SD) for lipids were 116 mg/dl (62) for TG, 139 mg/dl (29) for TC, 73 mg/dl (29) for LDL and 45 mg/dl (19) for HDL. Overall 63.9% had dyslipidemia with hypertriglyceridemia and hypo HDL being the most common: 28% and 45% respectively, while 2% had hypercholesterolemia or hyper-LDL. After adjusting for age, having HIV RNA > 5 log10 copies/ml was associated with hypo-HDL with odds ratios of 8.1 (95% CI 2.7–24.3). Up to two-third of ART-naïve, HIV-infected Asian children with mild to moderate immune suppression had dyslipidemia. Low HDL was the most common and was associated with high HIV viremia. The long term consequence of low HDL deserves further investigation in children.
