Scientists scan hearts to unlock HIV heart attack mystery

NCT ID NCT06784154

Summary

This study aims to understand why people living with HIV have a higher risk of heart attacks. Researchers will use MRI scans to measure fat stored around the heart and liver in 100 participants, comparing those with HIV to those without. The goal is to learn how this internal fat is linked to heart disease risk, which could guide future prevention strategies.
