Proteomic and Genetic predictors and risk scores of cardiovascular diseases in persons living with HIV.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) prediction models for persons living with HIV (PLWH) depend on traditional CVD risk factors, but these underestimate true risk. We aimed to identify proteins and genetic variants and create proteo-genomic risk scores for CVD in PLWH. Methods: We analyzed genetic and protein data from participants involved in trials for PLWH. We used state-of-the-art statistical methods for data integration, identified correlated signatures, and developed a protein score (PS) and a genetic score (GS) to predict CVD. We conducted functional enrichment analysis to explore biological functions of signatures identified in relation to CVD. Results: A panel of 14 proteins and a set of 15 genetic variants were found to be better at distinguishing between CVD cases and controls than individual proteins or genetic variants. The PS or GS was each independently associated with a higher risk of CVD. Combining CVD-, HIV-related factors, genetics, and protein scores resulted in the most powerful discrimination. Functional enrichment analysis showed an upregulation of the cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and strong enrichment for inflammation related pathways such as the pathogen induced cytokine storm. Conclusions: A panel of protein biomarkers, some new (IGFBP7, HGF) and some previously known in PLWH (CLEC6A), could help identify PLWH at higher risk of developing CVD. If confirmed, these scores could be used with CVD and HIV-related factors to identify PLWH at risk for CVD who would benefit from proactive risk reduction strategies.
