Box 445, Debre Berhan, EthiopiaEmail abebemuche3@gmail.comBackground: Dyslipidemia represents significant health care concerns in patients taking antiretroviral therapy due to their association with cardiovascular disease risk. There is limited data regarding the effects of boosted atazanavir (ATV/r) treatment in the lipid profiles of Ethiopian HIV patients. Thus, this study compares the mean values of lipid profile differences of HIV patients on ATV/r-based regimen compared to efavirenz (EFV)-based regimen, while the background is Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate/lamivudine.Materials and Methods: A comparative hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted among adult HIV-infected patients at Zewditu Memorial Hospital, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, from July–September 2017. An equal number of EFV and ATV/r-treated patients (n=90 each) receiving for 1-year and over were included in the study. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), gigh-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) were measured. Data comparison used chi-square test, Student’s t-test and Mann–Whitney U-test. Multivariate logistic regression analysis and p-value< 0.05 were used to identify associated factors of serum lipid profiles.Results: In the present study, the ATV/r-treated group results were significantly higher in the median values of TG [207 (56– 1094) vs 145 (42– 768) mg/dL; p=0.001] and the mean value of TG/HDL-c (6.6 vs 4.4; p=0.001) as compared to the EFV-treated group. The EFV-treated group showed significantly higher in the mean value of HDL-c (44.7 vs 38.7 mg/dL; p=0.001) as compared to the ATV/r-treated group. Body mass index was associate with LDL and HDL. CD4 was associated with TC. Current antiretroviral therapy was associated with TG. Duration of HIV since first diagnosis and duration of ART were associated with HDL.Conclusion: ATV/r is associated with elevated in TG and TG/HDL-C, but low HDL as compared to EFV. Differences in LDL or HDL that were found were of unclear clinical significance. The long-term significance is unknown.Keywords: dyslipidemia, antiretroviral therapy, efavirenz, ritonavir-boosted atazanavir |
