ABSTRACT
The increased survival of patients with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), due in great part to antiretroviral therapy, has led to the disease becoming a chronic condition. The result of this new picture, is the development of several chronic metabolic diseases, including diabetes mellitus. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate the prevalence of diabetes mellitus and prediabetes in HIV people that is controlled in a tertiary Chilean hospital and other epidemiological aspects of this condition. The results show a prevalence of 2.95 percent of diabetes and 13.0 percent of prediabetes in HIV patients, similar results to the international literature. The vast majority of these patients acquire diabetes or prediabetes after the HIV debut. It is important to know our local prevalence of metabolic comorbidities in these patients, in this case diabetes and prediabetes, to improve our research and adequate treatment in this population.
