Diabetes and Other Metabolic Issues in Individuals Aging with HIV
People aging with HIV face higher diabetes risk due to inflammation, aging, and ART. Join Dr. Amanda Rittenberg for insights and Q&A.
Individuals aging with HIV face an elevated risk of diabetes and metabolic syndrome due to a combination of chronic inflammation, long-term antiretroviral therapy (ART) effects, and traditional aging factors. While modern ART has reduced severe metabolic toxicities, they have not eliminated them, and a "metaflammation" state—a mix of chronic HIV-related inflammation and aging—accelerates immune dysfunction, cardiovascular disease, and, notably, type 2 diabetes. Join Amanda Rittenberg, MD, DABOM, for an in-depth discussion and Q&A.
