Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To determine if there is an association between change in faecal microbiota and antiretroviral initiation as characterised by change in alpha-diversity evaluated by Shannon Diversity Index.;Secondary Objective: Change in faecal microbiota correlate with change in : - markers of gut epithelial dysfunction and bacterial translocation - inflammatory marker: c-reactive protein - monocyte activation markers - bone turnover markers - renal (glomerular) biomarkers - liver stiffness measurement - bone mineral density at lumbar spine and femoral neck;Primary end point(s): Change in faecal microbial alpha-diversity (change in mean Shannon Diversity Index score in faecal microbiota) from baseline to 12 weeks;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 weeks | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): • Change in markers of gut epithelium integrity and bacterial translocation (e.g. FABP) • Change in inflammatory marker (c-reactive protein) at 12 weeks • Change in circulating markers of monocyte activation (e.g. sCD14, sCD163) • Change in renal glomerular biomarkers at 12 weeks (e.g. KIM-1/ alpha-1 microglobulin, NAG) • Change in bone biomarkers at 12 weeks (OC, P1NP, CTX);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 weeks | — |
