BackgroundOsteoporosis is common among HIV-infected persons and contributes to risk of fragility fracture. While ART initiation is associated with decreases in bone mineral density and increases in bone turnover, the impact of HIV on bone metabolism is unclear.MethodsWe identified men at the Chicago site of the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study who HIV seroconverted while under observation. Concentrations of 25-OH vitamin D, bone turnover markers [procollagen type 1 N terminal propeptide (P1NP), osteocalcin (OC), C-telopeptide (CTX)] and sclerostin were measured from stored serum obtained at pre-HIV infection, pre-ART and post-ART initiation timepoints. Mixed models, with each biomarker as an outcome, were fitted. Timepoint, age, CD4 count (cells/mm 3 ), HIV-viral suppression, season and an age by timepoint interaction term were considered as fixed effects.ResultsData from 52 participants revealed that median duration between HIV seroconversion and ART initiation was 8.7 years (IQR 3.7-11.6). Median CD4 and plasma HIV-RNA concentrations were 445 (IQR 298.5-689) and 20 184 copies/mL (IQR 6237-64 340), respectively, at the pre-ART timepoint. Multivariate analyses demonstrated pre-HIV infection levels of OC that were higher than pre-ART levels (6.8 versus 5.7 ng/mL, P = 0.04); and pre-ART levels of sclerostin that were higher than post-ART levels (0.033 versus 0.02 ng/mL, P
