- Abstract
Background: Pre-diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with proteinuria, a risk factor for chronic kidney disease. While people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV; PWH) have a higher risk of proteinuria than people without HIV (PWOH), it is unknown whether incident proteinuria differs by HIV serostatus among prediabetic persons., Methods: The urine protein-to-creatinine ratio was measured at semiannual visits among men in the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study since April 2006. Men with pre-DM on or after April 2006 and no prevalent proteinuria or use of antidiabetic medications were included. Pre-DM was defined as a fasting glucose level of 100-125 mg/dL confirmed within a year by a repeated fasting glucose or hemoglobin A1c measurement of 5.7%-6.4%. Incident proteinuria was defined as a urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR) >200 mg/g, confirmed within a year. We used Poisson regression models to determine whether incident proteinuria in participants with pre-DM differed by HIV serostatus and, among PWH, whether HIV-specific factors were related to incident proteinuria., Results: Between 2006 and 2019, among 1276 men with pre-DM, proteinuria developed in 128 of 613 PWH (21%) and 50 of 663 PWOH (8%) over a median 10-year follow-up. After multivariable adjustment, the incidence of proteinuria in PWH with pre-DM was 3.3 times (95% confidence interval, 2.3-4.8 times) greater than in PWOH (P < .01). Among PWH, current CD4 cell count <50/µL (P < .01) and current use of protease inhibitors (P = .03) were associated with incident proteinuria, while lamivudine and integrase inhibitor use were associated with a lower risk., Conclusions: Among men with pre-DM, the risk of incident proteinuria was 3 times higher in PWH. Strategies to preserve renal function are needed in this population., Competing Interests: Potential conflicts of interest. L.
