Weight Gain in PLWH: A Clinical Concern
Manage episode 340471732 series 2065653
Most people living with HIV gain weight when initiating ART. For some, the weight gain signifies a “return to health”; for others, the additional weight can be clinically significant and may be strongly associated with an increased risk of metabolic abnormalities. What causes this weight gain? How can patients most at risk for weight-related comorbidities be identified?
Join us as we discuss these and other issues with Dr. Todd Brown, Professor of Medicine and Epidemiology at Johns Hopkins University, in this eHIV Review podcast.
