977. The Prevalence and Burden of Non-AIDS Co-Morbidities in Women with or At-risk for HIV Infection in the United States.

Background Age-related non-AIDS comorbidities (NACM) increasingly account for morbidity and mortality in persons living with HIV. The burden of NACM and its association with HIV is poorly described in women. Methods We analyzed data from HIV+ and at-risk HIV− participants who were followed in the Women's Interagency HIV Study (WIHS) after 2009 (when >80% of participants used antiretroviral therapy). The prevalence of each NACM (defined by a combination of self-report, clinical measurements, and laboratory data) and the number of NACM were summarized at a most recent follow-up visit and were compared by age and HIV serostatus using unadjusted linear regression models. Results There were 3232 women (2309 HIV+, 923 HIV–) with a median follow-up of 15.3 years. The median age was 50 years, 65% were black, 38% currently smoked, 71% had ever used illicit drugs, 50% had annual income < $12,000, and median body mass index was 30 kg/m². HIV+ women had a median CD4 count of 618 cells/mm³ and 66% had HIV viral suppression. Among 10 NACM evaluated, the following were more prevalent in HIV+ vs. HIV– women (all P < 0.01): psychiatric illness (57%/48%), liver disease (45%/26%), hyperlipidemia (40%/35%), bone disease (40%/33%), chronic kidney disease (15%/7%), and non-AIDS cancer (11%/7%). There was little difference in the prevalence of hypertension (66%/64%), lung disease (41%/43%), diabetes (22%/24%), and cardiovascular disease (19%/19%). Mean number of NACM was higher in HIV+ vs. HIV– women (3.6 vs. 3.0, P < 0.0001). Regardless of HIV serostatus, NACM burden significantly increased with age (P < 0.0001). Compared with women aged <40 of the same HIV serostatus, the estimated mean difference in NACM (HIV+/HIV–) for those 40–49, 50–59, ≥60 years was 1.1/0.7, 2.3/2.3, and 3.6/3.2, respectively (P < 0.0001 for all). Within-age-group comparisons revealed significantly greater NACM burden in HIV+ vs. HIV− women aged 40–49 years (P < 0.0001) and ≥60 years (P = 0.003), but not in those aged <40 or 50–59 years (HIV*age interaction P = 0.02) (figure). Conclusion NACM burden was high in both HIV+ and at-risk HIV– women, but higher in HIV+ women overall and in certain age groups. Accumulation of NACM has complex implications for clinical care, medication management, and healthcare screening that must be further examined in this population. Disclosures Anandi N.
