The 8th International Workshop on HIV & Aging offered reports on new research in three broad areas – exercise and aging, the central nervous system and aging, and epigenetic (or biological) aging.
Under those broad umbrellas, attendees heard new data from rigorously planned studies on metformin suppression of cytomegalovirus, cognitive impairment in HIV-positive people over 60, declining lean mass in adults aging with HIV, step count as a predictor of health outcomes in an older HIV group, and an array of other topics.
The following reports by Mark Mascolini were published by natap,org.
