Resumo

OBJETIVOS: Identificar precocemente a prevalência de aterosclerose, por causa do espessamento do complexo médio-intimal das carótidas comuns e do índice tornozelo-braço. Essas medidas foram relacionadas com os fatores de risco clássicos de aterosclerose e os específicos dos infectados pelo HIV (tempo de doença, tempo de tratamento, tipo de tratamento, tipo de terapia antirretroviral utilizada, CD4 e carga viral). MÉTODOS: Setenta casos infectados com o HIV foram avaliados pela medida automática do complexo médio-intimal nas carótidas e do índice tornozelo-braço. Consideraram-se os fatores de risco clássicos de aterosclerose (idade, sexo, hipertensão arterial sistêmica, tabagismo, hipercolesterolemia, hipertrigliceridemia, obesidade e história familiar de evento cardiovascular), as medidas antropométricas e as variáveis relacionadas ao HIV. O nível de significância assumido foi de 5%. RESULTADOS: O tempo médio de diagnóstico do HIV foi de 104,9 meses e de tratamento foi de 97,9 meses. Quanto ao tipo de tratamento, 47 (67,1%) fizeram uso de inibidor de protease por mais de seis meses e 36 (51,4%) estão em uso atualmente. O índice tornozelo-braço estava aumentado em um único paciente (0,7%) e não se evidenciou espessamento do complexo médio-intimal em nenhum indivíduo. Não existiu associação significante da medida do complexo médio-intimal da carótida comum direita com nenhuma das variáveis analisadas. CONCLUSÕES: Indivíduos jovens, sob o uso de terapia antirretroviral por cinco anos ou mais, não apresentaram espessamento do complexo médio-intimal ou aumento do índice tornozelo-braço. Não houve diferença do espessamento do complexo médio-intimal associada ao tipo de esquema antirretroviral utilizado ou nível de carga viral.

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: To precociously identify the prevalence of atherosclerosis caused by thickening of the intima-media complex of the common carotid arteries and of the ankle brachial index. These measurements were associated with the classical risk factors of atherosclerosis and the specific factors of those infected by HIV (duration of disease, length of treatment, kind of treatment, kind of antiretroviral therapy used, CD4 and viral load). METHODS: Seventy cases infected by HIV were assessed by automatic measurement of the intima-media complex in the carotids and of the ankle brachial index. The classical risk factors of atherosclerosis (age, gender, systemic arterial hypertension, smoking, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, obesity, and family history of cardiovascular events), anthropometric measurements and the variables related to HIV were taken into consideration. The adopted level of significance was 5%. RESULTS: The mean time of HIV diagnosis was 104.9 months, mean duration of treatment was 97.9 months. As regard to the type of treatment, 47 (67.1%) used protease inhibitor for more than six months and 36 (51.4%) are using it recently. The ankle brachial index was increased in one patient (0.7%), and the intima-media complex was not thickened in any individual. There was no significant association of the measurement of the intima-media complex of the right common carotid with any of the variables analyzed. CONCLUSIONS: Young individuals under the use of antiretroviral therapy for five years or more did not show increase in thickness of the intima-media complex or increase in the ankle brachial index, and there was no difference in the intima-media complex thickness associated with the therapeutical scheme of antiretroviral used or the viral load level.
