Background 1984 : First description of HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) Establishment of the direct pathogenic role of HIV-1 in HIVAN Identification of genetic suceptibility locus for HIVAN in Blacks (MYH9) (Kopp et al. 2008) HAART 1 : o Dramatic improvement of survival o Reduction in HIVAN incidence o Mild decrease in incidence of ESRD related to HIV HAART 2: o Nephrotoxicity of ARV agents o Comorbid conditions : diabetes, hypertension, aging, dyslipidemia = Risk factors for Chronic Kidney Diseases Lucas et al, AIDS, 2004
Method Aims – Describe the typological changes of glomerular disease in HIV-infected patients over study period ( ) – Identify discriminant variables for HIVAN Design – Retrospective pathological study Data source – Pathology laboratory, Tenon Hospital, APHP – Departments of Infectious Diseases, Tenon and Saint Antoine Hospitals, APHP
Method Population – Consecutive adult HIV-infected patients with or without antiretroviral treatment – Kidney biopsies from 1995 to 2007 with diagnosis of glomerular disease Variables – Demographic variables – Hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, history of cardiovascular events, and history of intravenous drug use. – Clinical data on HIV-infection, co-infections, CDC staging, history of opportunistic infections, ART history – Renal data including treatment, nephrotoxic drugs – Laboratory measurements at the time of biopsy
Method Kidney biopsies were analysed according to standard protocols Glomerular lesions were classified according to established criteria Glom Tub HIVAN Classical Focal and Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS)

Discussion Less Blacks and HCV-coinfected patients than in prior African-American studies Indications for kidney biopsies could have changed between the 3 periods (under biopsy of HIVAN profile patients) A real switch of FSGS types over time Classical FSGS associated with long term infection, cardiovascular risk factors and lipodystrophy A discriminant clinical and biological scale for identification of HIVAN
Conclusion The emergence of one glomerular disease among treated HIV-infected patients: the classical FSGS A particular susceptibility for Black population concerning both main types of glomerular diseases in HIV infection, as previously shown in genetic linkage studies An HIVAN scale ≤ 21 points coud lead to perform the kidney biospy
