'Myocardial inflammatory changes before and after antiretroviral therapy initiation in people with advanced HIV disease'

Because high frequency and late presentation of HIV disease in our population, we decided to explore the presence of myocarditis among people with HIV-infection and advanced immunosuppression (less than 200 CD4+ cells/μL), and to describe the inflammatory changes observed after combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) initiation in an observational, longitudinal, prospective cohort performing cardiovascular MRI (cMRI) and doppler trans-thoracic echocardiogram (TTE).
