简要总结
The investigators are studying whether metabolic abnormalities in calf (leg) muscle in older people with and others without HIV are associated with decreased abilities to exercise.
详细描述
This research is being done to better understand why some older people living with HIV experience more fatigue and difficulty exercising than older people without HIV. This is important because fatigue and problems exercising are predictors of disability and hospitalization in older individuals. We will use non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy (MRS) of the leg muscle to measure muscle metabolites and fat content, as well as blood samples measures levels of inflammation.
