Why the study?
Do HIV carriers have left ventricular diastolic impairment early in the clinical course of infection compared to healthy controls?
Do HIV carriers have left ventricular diastolic impairment early in the clinical course of infection compared to healthy controls?
HIV infection is associated with early echocardiographic signs of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, even in asymptomatic carriers.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Early HIV may link to subclinical diastolic impairment; hypothesis-generating and requires longitudinal studies before screening implications.
Coudray et al. (1995) studied this question.
