High population-attributable fractions of traditional risk factors for non-AIDS-defining diseases among people living with HIV in China: a cohort study.

ABSTRACT: Morbidity and mortality of non-AIDS-defining diseases (NADs) have become the increasing burden of people living with HIV (PLWH) with long-term antiretroviral therapy (ART). We aimed to quantify the contribution of modifiable risk factors to NADs. We included PLWHs starting ART at the Third People's Hospital of Shenzhen (China) from Jan 1, 2010 to Dec 31, 2017. We defined NAD outcomes of interest as cardiovascular disease (CVD), end-stage liver disease (ESLD), advanced renal disease (ARD), and non-AIDS-defining cancers (NADCs). We estimated incidence of outcomes and population-attributable fractions (PAFs) of modifiable traditional and HIV-related risk factors for each outcome. Overall, 8,301 participants (median age at study entry, 31 years) contributed 33,146 person-years of follow-up (PY
