Combined antiretroviral therapy with low- or normal-protein, high-calorie diets appears to induce significant deleterious electrocardiographic changes in a rodent model

The introduction of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) has significantly reduced AIDS-related morbidity and mortality. However, the prevalence of age-associated comorbidities, particularly cardiovascular diseases (CVD), has increased, becoming a leading cause of mortality in people living with HIV.
