The endothelial dysfunction triggered by the infection and the metabolic abnormalities associated with therapy predispose to premature atherosclerosis. The recognition of the increased cardiovascular risk in these patients will allow more appropriate prevention strategies, as well as therapy optimization with lipid-lowering agents and antirretroviral therapy modification.7242630por:IMMUNODEFICIENCY-VIRUS-INFECTIONPROTEASE INHIBITOR THERAPYTREATMENT PANEL-IIIANTIRETROVIRAL THERAPYMETABOLIC SYNDROMEINSULIN-RESISTANCEDYSLIPIDEMIAMANAGEMENTEFAVIRENZADULTSSDG 3 - Good Health and Well-beingRisco cardiovascular em doentes com infecção por vírus da imunodeficiência humanaCardiovascular risk in HIV infected patientsjournal article
