Condition: HIV · Menopause · Cardiovascular (CV) Risk · Sponsor: University of California, San Francisco
Menopause is associated with the acceleration of many comorbidities, including cardiovascular disease. Whether HIV and menopause together increase cardiovascular disease risk is a key knowledge gap. The goal of this observational study is to address this knowledge gap by looking at the role of menopause on cardiovascular disease risk factors such as insulin resistance, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and carotid atherosclerosis using previously collected data. The investigators will look at underlying causes for cardiovascular diseases worsening in menopausal women with HIV by looking at the role of increased inflammation in the body and whether this is altered by weight. The investigators achieve this by enrolling participants who are willing to undergo a whole body MRI.
