简要总结
The investigators propose to correlate 1) cardiac MRI pericardial adipose volume, 2) the presence of pericardial monocytes and 3) circulating immune biomarkers in persons with and without CHD and HIV infection compared to seronegative controls with known CHD. The investigators aim to test the hypothesis that higher amounts of pericardial fat deposition and increased presence of monocytes within this adipose tissue are associated with underlying coronary artery disease in persons with HIV infection as measured by cardiac MRI.
详细描述
Methods and Procedures:
Screening Assessments Patients who potentially meet inclusion criteria will be identified through the Infectious Disease Center and/or the cardiac catheterization laboratory who have had a coronary angiogram or cardiac CT angiogram, with or without evidence of CAD. Their records will be reviewed for inclusion and exclusion criteria and informed consent will be obtained prior to any research related procedures by a member of the research team for this project.
A screening visit will be done to obtain informed consent. BUN and Creatinine will be done at screening to ensure the safety of the MRIprocedure.
In HIV-infected subjects who have not had HIV-1 RNA or CD4+ lymphocyte tests obtained in the last 60 days, these will be done at screening.
Screening visits will last approximately 30-60 minutes.
