Framingham Risk Score and Early Markers of Atherosclerosis in a Cohort of Adults Infected with HIV

Abstract

Our study shows that increased Framingham risk scores are associated with abnormal early and late surrogate markers of atherosclerosis in adults infected with HIV, and might predict the risk of cardiovascular complications in this population.
