Abstract

The main objective of the study was to assess the occurrence of non-aids-related comorbidities typical of aging in people living with HIV diagnosis 20 years ago or more and under treatment with antiretroviral drugs for a long time. The associations between the same age group in people living with HIV with reported ART use 20 + years and people living with HIV with reported ART use between two and five years in relation to the risk of comorbidities studied, there was a predominance of metabolic alterations in the 50–60 and 60 + age groups (p < 0.003). The conclusion was that exists a higher risk of comorbidities associated with people living with HIV for more than 20 years, but the length of treatment did not necessarily influence this risk.
