METHOD: Whole body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans were performed at baseline and weeks 48 and 96 of therapy in all 19 patients from one of the sites participating in the Antiretroviral Regimen Evaluation Study (ARES). Patients had been randomized to receive nelfinavir/didanosine/stavudine (n = 8), nevirapine/didanosine/lamivudine (n = 7), or ritonavir-boosted saquinavir/didanosine/lamivudine (n = 4). RESULTS: In an intent-to-treat analysis, patients allocated to didanosine plus stavudine-containing treatment after 96 weeks had lost a median of 1,825 g (-26%) of total limb fat, as compared to a median gain of 1,639 (48%) and 403 (6%) g in those randomized to the didanosine/lamivudine plus nevirapine or saquinavir-containing regimens, respectively. These changes in limb fat were statistically significantly different when comparing patients allocated to stavudine-containing treatment with both of the other two treatment arms combined (p = .01). CONCLUSION: This study suggests that didanosine/lamivudine, when combined with either nevirapine or ritonavir-boosted saquinavir over 96 weeks of therapy, is possibly not associated with limb fat atrophy, in contrast to when treatment contained didanosine, stavudine, and nelfinavir combined.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":2.772588722239781,"endowment":2.772588722239781,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"17956835","pmcid":null,"openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W1976532467","authors":[],"funders":[],"total_grants":0,"fwci":1.445,"citation_percentile":0.81859174,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2012,"count":4},{"year":2014,"count":2},{"year":2015,"count":1},{"year":2017,"count":1},{"year":2019,"count":1}],"oa_status":"bronze","license":null,"oa_locations":[{"url":"https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1310/hct0805-337?needAccess=true&role=button","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1310/hct0805-337?needAccess=true&role=button","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1310/hct0805-337","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1310/hct0805-337","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17956835","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://pure.amsterdamumc.nl/en/publications/2421b16a-36c0-49e8-97c0-22f13da28bf8","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://pure.amc.nl/en/publications/stavudine-but-not-didanosine-as-part-of-haart-contributes-to-peripheral-lipoatrophy-a-substudy-from-the-antiretroviral-regimen-evaluation-study-ares(2dbafc8f-ea8e-402f-ba16-8a31110e56f7).html","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["HIV-related health complications and treatments","Diabetes, Cardiovascular Risks, and Lipoproteins","Nutrition and Health in Aging","Absorptiometry, Photon","Adipose Tissue","Adult","Anti-HIV Agents","Antiretroviral Therapy, Highly Active","Didanosine","Female","HIV Infections","HIV-Associated Lipodystrophy Syndrome","Humans","Lamivudine","Male","Middle Aged","Nelfinavir","Nevirapine","Saquinavir","Stavudine"],"mesh_terms":["Adipose Tissue","Adult","Female","Humans","Male","Middle Aged","Absorptiometry, Photon","HIV Infections","Didanosine","Stavudine","Saquinavir","Lamivudine","Anti-HIV Agents","Nevirapine","Nelfinavir","Antiretroviral Therapy, Highly Active","HIV-Associated Lipodystrophy Syndrome"],"keywords":["Stavudine","Didanosine","Lipoatrophy","Medicine","Regimen","Antiretroviral therapy","Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)","Internal medicine","Viral load","Virology"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Good health and well-being"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-08-10T02:51:38.508028Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
