BACKGROUND: People living with HIV (PLWH) are susceptible to non-AIDS-related events, particularly those with immunological nonresponses (INRs) to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). This study assessed the association of INRs with incident non-AIDS-related events among PLWH. METHODS: This multicenter retrospective cohort study enrolled PLWH who had newly diagnosed stage 3 HIV and received HAART between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2019. The patients were divided into two groups according to their immunological responses on the 360th day after HAART initiation: INR and non-INR groups. Cox regression and sensitivity analyses were conducted to estimate the effects of INRs on overall and individual categories of non-AIDS-related events (malignancies, vascular diseases, metabolic disorders, renal diseases, and psychiatric disorders). Patient observation started on the 360th day after HAART initiation and continued until February 28, 2022, death, or an outcome of interest, whichever occurred first. RESULTS: Among the 289 included patients, 44 had INRs. Most of the included patients were aged 26-45 years (69.55%) and were men who have sex with men (89.97%). Many patients received HIV diagnoses between 2009 and 2012 (38.54%). INRs (vs. non-INRs) were associated with composite non-AIDS-related events (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 1.80; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.19-2.73) and metabolic disorders (aHR = 1.75; 95% CI: 1.14-2.68). Sensitivity analyses revealed consis...
