Association Between Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction, Systemic Inflammation, and Gastrointestinal Symptoms in HIV-Positive Patients on Antiretroviral Therapy

Anti-inflammatory therapies targeting specific biomarkers like TNF-α could improve clinical outcomes, supporting a more comprehensive strategy to managing HIV-related comorbidities beyond viral suppression.
