Higher Prevalence and Faster Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease in Human Immunodeficiency Virus–Infected Middle-Aged Individuals Compared With Human Immunodeficiency Virus–Uninfected Controls

Abstract

In these middle-aged individuals, HIV infection was independently associated with renal impairment, albuminuria, and proximal renal tubular dysfunction. Human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals on cART (predominantly containing tenofovir disoproxil fumarate) were also more likely to experience eGFR decline and worsening albuminuria compared with HIV-uninfected individuals.
