- Psychological factors may play a significant role in predicting cardiovascular disease in HIV patients, with a focus on alexithymia as a notable predictor.
- A study involving 232 HIV patients assessed various psychological and traditional cardiovascular risk factors, finding a connection between higher alexithymia scores and increased vascular issues.
- Key findings indicated that older age, current smoking, and high alexithymia scores were independently linked to adverse vascular events during follow-up, highlighting the importance of addressing psychological health in HIV treatment.
