Conference Coverage Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Development of Proteinuria or Elevated Serum Creatinine and Mortality in HIV-Infected Women May 6, 2003 Renal complications of HIV infection have been reported since 1984. However, data on the incidence and prognostic significance of renal dysfunction in HIV disease are limited. These are important issues, because renal dysfunction may be frequent but partially reversible once identified and treated. In the current study, researchers prospectively studied a cohort of 885 HIV-positive women without clinical AIDS and 425 HIV-negative women with a similar high-risk profile since 1993. Researchers determined the incidence of proteinuria or elevated serum creatinine in the cohorts, to assess whether they were predictors of mortality in HIV-positive women, and to determine whether causes listed on death certificates differed between HIV-positive women with and without proteinuria or elevated serum creatinine. A woman was considered to have renal abnormalities if she had a serum creatinine level of 1.4 mg/dL or more, or a urine protein level of 2+ or more, or both. Participants were from the general community or HIV care clinics in four U.S. urban locations: Bronx, N.Y.; Detroit, Mich.; Baltimore, Md.; and Providence, R.I. Roughly one-half of participants had high-risk sexual contacts, and one-half had injected drugs since 1985. Participants were seen at six-month intervals.
