We sought to determine the prevalence and characteristics of echocardiographic abnormalities (systolic and/or diastolic dysfunction, pericardial effusion) in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection (HIV) with no symptoms or previous history of cardiac disease, and compare them with a healthy control group. Transthoracic echocardiography was performed in 125 patients (73% male, mean age 33.2 +/- 6.6 years) with HIV infection without cardiac involvement and 47 age and sex-matched healthy volunteers (78% male, 31.6 +/- 7.3 years). The immunologic situation was determined by CD4 lymphocyte counts. Abnormal left ventricular relaxation and filling patterns (E/A relation 1.31 +/- 0.35 in HIV group, 1.66 +/- 0.38 in control group, p < 0.001; pressure half-time 57.5 +/- 13 in HIV group, 50.6 +/- 6.6 in control group, p < 0.001), segmental wall-motion abnormalities (15%) and pericardial effusion (7.2%) were found in patients with HIV infection. Systolic function (EF 64.8 +/- 8.3) and left ventricular dimension (diastolic diameter 4.94 +/- 0.55, systolic diameter 3.17 +/- 0.51) showed normal patterns and did not significantly differ from those of the control group. Silent echocardiographic abnormalities in patients with HIV infection are frequent suggesting a direct myocardial effect of the virus. The development of diastolic dysfunction is directly related to a worse immunologic situation. Prospective studies are needed to clarify the clinical prognosis of these asymptomatic abnormalities.
