Description |
Our analysis resulted in an 8-parameter, plasma-detectable inflammatory index that correlated with chronological age of all study participants but was higher overall in PWH. |

Conclusion |
These results show that markers of inflammation that increase with age in the general population, are also higher in hiv-infected individuals supporting the hypothesis that hiv infection can enhance the process of inflammaging. |
