Chronic alanine aminotransferase elevation in people with HIV: Time trends over 22 years and genetic predisposition

open access: yesHIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Chronic elevation of alanine aminotransferase (cALT) is common in people with HIV. Published reports on cALT prevalence time trends have not been uniform. It is unknown whether genetic background is associated with cALT in people with HIV. Methods cALT was defined as ALT levels (male, >50 U/L, female, >35 U/L) at ≥2 consecutive, 6‐
