There is an increasing need for health care providers to assess and address the adverse effects of HIV infection and treatment, including HIV-associated lipodystrophy, diabetes, renal and cardiovascular diseases.

The objectives of this webinar are:
- Recognize the clinical conditions associated with lipodystrophy (e.g., CVD, sarcopenia, osteoporosis, and fatty liver; diabetes and hypertension)
