Updates on HIV and Kidney Disease.

Published in: Current HIV/AIDS reports (2023)

Non-HIV-driven risk factors for kidney disease, such as APOL1 risk variants and other genetic and environmental factors, have been discovered and are better described. Consequently, the field of HIV-associated kidney disease has evolved with greater attention given to traditional risk factors of CKD and antiretroviral treatment's nephrotoxicity. In this review, we explore risk factors of HIV-associated kidney disease, diagnostic tools, kidney pathology in HIV-positive individuals, and antiretroviral therapy-associated nephrotoxicity.
