Author Year Race Data Sources/Setting Study Design Sample Size Outcomes
Kent et al. (44) 2017 Whites & African-Americans HIV Clinic Cross-sectional 49 SBP and DBP dipping ratios were 5.2% (95%CI: 1.7%, 8.7%) and 6.1% (95%CI 2.0%, 10.3%) smaller among African-Americans compared with Whites.
Burkholder et al. (56) 2018 Whites & African-Americans HIV Clinic Cross-sectional 1,664 Prevalence of HTN was higher among African-Americans compared to Whites (PR 1.25; 95% CI 1.12–1.39) and prevalence of BP control was lower (PR 0.80; 95% CI 0.69–0.93).
Richardson et al. (45) 2016 Whites & African-Americans Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Retrospective Cohort 23,974 Black veterans living with HIV were less likely than their White counterparts to receive antiretroviral therapy and experience viral control (84.6% vs. 91.3%, p<.001), HTN control (61.9% vs. 68.3%, p<.001), DM control (85.5% vs. 89.5%, p<.001), and lipid monitoring (81.5% vs. 85.2%, p<.001)
Wong et al. (55) 2017 African-Americans & non-African- Americans North American AIDS Cohort Collaboration on Research and Design (NA-ACCORD) Retrospective Cohort 50,000 African-American adults experienced at least a 1.4-fold higher rate of HTN, DM and CKD compared to non-African-American individuals
Oramasionwu et al.(60) 2014 Whites & African-Americans United States National Hospital Discharge Surveys (NHDS) Retrospective Cohort 1.5 million hospital discharges African-Americans living with HIV had increased odds of CVD-related hospitalization compared to whites with HIV (OR, 1.45 95% CI, 1.39 –1.51)
Riestenberg et al. (57) 2019 Whites & African-Americans HIV Electronic Comprehensive Cohort of CVD Complications (HIVE-4CVD) Retrospective Cohort 5,039 Among people with HIV who had an indication for a statin, African-Americans and Hispanics were less likely than Whites to have been prescribed statins.
Willig et al. (54) 2015 Whites & African-Americans HIV Clinic Retrospective Cohort 1800 Compared to Whites, African-American men had increased odds for HTN and CKD, while African-American women had a nearly 2-fold increased odds for DM and HTN (p<0.01).
