Abstract
AbstractMetabolic syndrome is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. With improvement in therapy for HIV, morbidity related to metabolic syndrome becomes a focus of interest. Change in nutritional status and introduction of newer regimens of ART are changing the impact of metabolic syndrome on patients of HIV. Few studies in recent times from developing countries have addressed this question. This is a cross sectional study to study the prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome in patients of HIV on ART from clinics in a tertiary care hospital in India. Data from 1208 patients of HIV on ART was analyzed and metabolic syndrome was seen in 257(21.3%) patients.The high prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients of HIV in India found in this study gives an insight on the morbidity of noncommunicable diseases in patients with HIV in India in recent times.
