Abstract
Body composition is a key determinant of ageing phenotype. HIV patients on ART are frequently affected by lipodystrophy and osteopenia/osteoporosis (O/O), and in the aging process they experience a decline in fat free mass index (FFMi) similar to uninfected individuals. In an ageing HIV-infected cohort we aimed to describe the interaction between anthropometric changes of FFMi, leg fat % (surrogate of lipoatrophy), VAT/TAT (surrogate of lipohypertrophy) and lumbar BMD (surrogate for (O/O).
