Association of Cardiologist Clinic Visits with Cardiovascular Primary Prevention Outcomes Among People with HIV from Underrepresented Racial and Ethnic Groups in the Southern United States.

Among UREG PWH at elevated cardiovascular risk, a cardiology clinic visit was not associated with improved cardiovascular risk factors or reduced risk of cardiovascular events. Our study suggests that seeing a cardiologist is not alone sufficient to promote cardiovascular health or prevent cardiovascular events among PWH, but with low confidence given the higher risk among those who had a cardiology visit.
