HIV Is Associated with Clinically Confirmed Myocardial Infarction after Adjustment for Smoking and Other Risk Factors • 81,229 veterans (33% HIV+) from the Veterans Aging Cohort Study Virtual Cohort (VACS) • During a median 4.6 years, there were 497 MI events (44% HIV+). Rates of MI were higher for HIV+ (21.7, 95%CI 19.0 to 24.7) per 10,000 p-y) than uninfected veterans (13.1, 95%CI 11.7 to 14.8 per 10,000 person-years), resulting in an increased relative risk of MI (HR 1.86, 95%CI 1.54 to 2.26) after adjusting for established risk factors including age (HR 1.04, 95%CI 1.03 to 1.05), Hispanic ethnicity (HR 1.35, 95%CI 1.01 to 1.80); hypertension (HR 1.40, 95%CI 1.15 to 1.70); hyperlipidemia (HR 1.29, 95%CI 1.07 to 1.56); diabetes (HR 2.06, 95%CI 1.69 to 2.50); and smoking (HR 1.48, 95%CI 1.14 to 1.93). • Among HIV-infected participants, baseline CD4 counts, HIV-1 RNA levels, and class of ART were not associated with MI after adjustment for established risk factors (p >0.2).

Increased risk of myocardial infarction in HIV- infected patients in France, relative to the general population men women “The higher relative risks of MI found in younger men and women raises the possibility of a premature aging effect of HIV infection on the cardiovascular system” Lang et al.

Results: Of all (ischemic and hemorrhagic) stroke hospitalizations, patients with comorbid HIV infection constituted 0.09% in 1997 vs 0.15% in 2006 (p < 0.0001). Actual numbers of overall US stroke hospitalizations lessened 7% (998,739 to 926,997), while actual numbers of stroke hospitalizations with coexisting HIV infection rose 60% (888 to 1,425). Patients with comorbid HIV infection comprised 0.08% of ischemic strokes in 1997 vs 0.18% in 2006 (p < 0.0001), but their proportion of hemorrhagic strokes did not significantly change. Factors independently associated with higher odds of comorbid HIV diagnosis were Medicaid insurance, urban hospital type, dementia, liver disease, renal disease, and cancer.
An increase of “vascular age” was detected in 162 pts (40.5%) with a mean increase of 15 years (range 1-43) compared to real age. Guaraldi et al : CID 2009:49; 1756-61

Health Effects of Smoking for PLWHA In PLWHA: • HIV meds can exacerbate risks by raising cholesterol and triglycerides • Smoking aggravates oral diseases, increasing risk of oral cancers • Increased risk of pulmonary disorders/diseases, including lung cancer, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia and other lung infections over HIV- smokers • Increased risk for some long-term side effects of HIV disease and treatment, such as: • Osteoporosis (weak bones that can lead to fractures) • Osteonecrosis (bone death) • Weakened immune system can undermine effects of HIV meds • People with HIV who smoke are more likely to suffer: • Complications from HIV medication such as nausea and vomiting AIDS Project Los Angeles, Smoking Tobacco and HIV.

Smoking and Opportunistic Infections • PLWHA who smoke are more likely to develop: • Thrush • Oral hairy leukoplakia (whitish mouth sores) • Bacterial pneumonia • Pneumocystis pneumonia • For women, smoking can increase the risk and severity of infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) • Increased risk for cervical cancer • Increased risk for anal cancer (also in MSM) • Mycobacterium avium (the bacteria that causes MAC) has been linked to smoking.

Smoking and Cardiovascular Risk “Cigarette smoking is the most important modifiable cardiovascular risk factor among HIV-infected patients.” “Cessation of smoking is more likely to reduce cardiovascular risk than either the choice of antiretroviral therapy or the use of any lipid-lowering therapy.” Grinspoon S, Carr A, Cardiovascular risk and body-fat abnormalities in HIV-infected adults. N Engl J Med 2005; 352:48–62

Smoking Cessation Reduces CVD Risk in HIV • Risk of cardiac events drops sharply when HIV-positive smokers quit. • Previous smokers, compared to the control group, had: • 73% increase in MI (myocardial infarction) risk • 60% increase in CHD (coronary heart disease) risk • 38% increase in CVD (cardiovascular disease) risk • Current smokers, compared to the control group, had: • 340% elevated risk for MI • 250% elevated risk for CHD • 220% elevated risk for CVD Petoumenos K, et al.

Smoking Cessation Reduces CVD Risk in HIV • Current but not previous smokers had an increased risk for all-cause mortality. • Quitting smoking during the study reduced the risk of an adverse cardiac outcome.

The 5 A’s for Patients Willing to Quit • ASK about tobacco use at every visit • ADVISE to quit with a clear, strong, personalized message • ASSESS willingness to make a quit attempt within the next 30 days • ASSIST in quit attempt with a brief (3-5 min) counseling intervention • ARRANGE for follow-up (ANTICIPATE relapse)

Adjusted rate ratios for CHD among HIV+ individuals by recent and lowest CD4 • 20,775 HIV+ and 215,158 HIV–, contributing for 90,961 and 1,133,444 p-y, respectively • HIV+ had 399 CHD events (447/105 p-y) including 248 MI. HIV– had 3463 CHD events (311/105 p-y), including 1825 MI, for an adjusted CHD RR of 1.2 (95%CI 1.1 to 1.4; p <0.001), and an adjusted MI RR of 1.4 (95%CI 1.3 to 1.7; p <0.001). • Increased risk for cardiovascular complications is not seen for patients with relatively preserved CD4, possibly supporting earlier initiation of ART. Klein et al 18th CROI; Boston, 2011. Abst 810
Early Initiation of ART in HIV-infected Individuals is Associated with Reduced Arterial Stiffness • Nadir CD4+ count <350/mL is an independent predictor of arterial stiffness in HAART-treated individuals. • Prospective studies evaluating the CV risk associated with early vs late initiation of HAART are warranted Ho et al, CROI 2010
