Cardiovascular Outcomes After Acute Coronary Syndrome in Persons Living with HIV: A Scoping Review
摘要
Over the past twenty-five years, a growing body of research has investigated outcomes after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) event in persons with HIV (PWH). In this scoping review, we assessed the published literature on outcomes after a prior ACS event in PWH compared to persons without HIV (PWoH) in the US and Europe.
Recent FindingsOf 27 studies of secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease, 15 studies found a greater incidence of recurrent ACS, heart failure, in-stent thrombosis, revascularization, restenosis, and mortality in PWH after a prior ACS event compared to PWoH. PWH were more likely to present with STEMI, less likely to receive percutaneous coronary intervention, and more likely to exhibit an active inflammatory state. The remaining 12 studies found no significant difference in outcomes after a prior ACS event.
SummaryPWH may face an increased risk of adverse outcomes after ACS that differ in presentation and management compared with PWoH. Larger observational studies are needed to assess outcomes after a prior ACS event in PWH compared to PWoH and improve clinical management.
