Abstract
It is unknown whether disrupted tryptophan catabolism is associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–infected individuals. Plasma tryptophan and kynurenic acid were measured in 737 women and men (520 HIV+, 217 HIV−) from the Women's Interagency HIV Study and the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study. Repeated B-mode carotid artery ultrasound imaging was obtained from 2004 through 2013. We examined associations of...
