Publisher: | Turkish Society of Cardiology | Abstract: | Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of mortality among people living with HIV (PLWH). We aimed to assess the prevalence of diagnosed CVD and the risk of CVD among PLWH using 5 different tools. Methods: This retrospective, cross-sectional study was conducted in 20 tertiary centers in Türkiye between October 2021 and March 2022, among 1425 PLWH aged 40-75 years. About 82.7% were male, with a median age of 51. Web-based tools for each score were used for CVD risk calculations. Results: Of 1425 PLWH enrolled, 10.8% had confirmed CVD, and 1132 had their risk scores evaluated. Of those participants, 42.8% had a higher risk of CVD (10-year risk of atherosclerotic CVD risk score (ASCVD) above 7.5%), and according to the European Society of Cardiology systemic coronary risk evaluation 2 (SCORE2), 71.7% had a high- to very high-risk rate. The agreement between various CVD risk tools varied, with Framingham heart study risk score (FRS), modified FRS, data collection on adverse effects of anti-HIV drugs (DAD), and SCORE2 for high-risk countries showing overall agreement rates of 82%, 94%, 91%, and 36%, respectively, compared to ASCVD. According to the 2021 European and 2019 American Cardiology guidelines, 75.3% and 47.1% of PLWH would be eligible for lipid-lowering agents, respectively. Conclusion: The diagnosed CVD prevalence highlighted the importance of monitoring cardiovascular health and comorbidities in this population. SCORE2 identified a greater number of individuals at high/very high risk compared to other prediction tools. The implementation of CVD prevention through lipid-lowering therapy was far from desired levels in our cohort.
