- Abstract
The presence of the adhesion molecules intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) is associated with elevated risk of cardiovascular disease. Subjects with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease have multiple risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including elevated serum lipid levels, insulin resistance, and elevated levels of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1. This study assessed the variables associated with elevated adhesion molecule levels in this patient population.
