    Journal Article

    Among 743 HIV-infected patients, a 6-month case-control study disclosed a 35.9% rate of hyperlactatemia in those with a longer duration of anti-HIV therapy, lipodystrophy, and elevated triglyceride, creatine phosphokinase, and aldolase levels. The 52 patients with sustained lactacidemia and the five with grade 4 hyperlactatemia showed no different supporting factors and courses compared with those with isolated or low-level abnormalities. No relationship emerged with nucleoside analogue use. Hyperlactatemia, although frequently transient and asymptomatic, warrants careful attention.
