ACID LOADS IN HIV-INFECTED PATIENTS (PART A) ALSO SEE SPID 0699

该子项目是利用 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是 中心，不一定是研究者的机构。 我们从HIV感染者中收集了两份血液和两份24小时尿液样本，以测试他们的疾病，药物和/或饮食产生的酸负荷是否影响他们的骨代谢。为了避免被误导，我们同时评估了其他多种可能影响骨代谢的因素。 这项研究的参与者被邀请参加一项单独的为期4周的研究，以观察吞咽抗酸剂是否会改善HIV感染患者的骨代谢。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. We collected two blood and two 24-hour urine samples from people with HIV infection, to test whether acid loads produced by their illness, medications, and/or diet are affecting their bone metabolism. To avoid being misled, we simultaneously evaluated multiple other factors that can affect bone metabolism. Participants in this study were invited to participate in a separate 4-week study to see whether swallowing antacids will improve bone metabolism in HIV-infected patients.
