Abstract :

<p>&nbsp;OBJECTIVE: TO STUDY LIPID PROFILE AND RENAL PROFILE IN HIV PATIENTS ON ANTIRETEROVIRAL THERAPY.</p> <div>METHODOLOGY: THIS IS A CROSS SECTIONAL OBSERVATIONAL STUDY CONDUCTED ON HIV PATIENTS,OVER A</div> <div>DURATION OF ONE YEAR FROM NOVEMBER 2014 TO NOVEMBER 2015 IN GMC BHOPAL.</div> <div>RESULTS: SIGNIFICANT LIPID ABNORMALITIES ARE FOUND IN HIV PATIENTS ON ANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPY ,WHILE THERE WAS NO</div> <div>SIGNIFICANT RENAL ABNORMALITIES DETECTED IN OUR STUDY ON THE SAME SET OF PATIENTS.</div> <div>CONCLUSION: BASELINE LIPID PROFILE NEED TO BE DONE BEFORE STARTING ANTIRETEROVIRAL THERAPY IN HIV PATIENTS.DIRECT</div> <div>CORELATION WAS FOUND BETWEEN PROTEASE INHIBITORS AND DYSLIPIDEMIA.</div>
