Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Objectives: Elevated levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), D-dimer, and C-reactive protein (hsCRP) are associated with increased incidence of comorbid disease and mortality among people living with HIV (PLWH). Prior studies suggest a genetic basis for these biomarker elevations in the general population. The study objectives are to identify the genetic basis for these biomarkers among PLWH.
4,675 European ancestry individuals, 1,732 African ancestry individuals, 645 Admixed American individuals
