    Abstract In addition to his many research achievements, James Allen Olson made important contributions to evaluations of the role of dietary carotenoids in prevention of chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease and age-related macular degeneration in well-nourished populations. This paper reviews recent scientific evaluations of the role of carotenoids in disease, recommendations for future research, and consumer-related trends of relevance to carotenoids. Authoritative scientific evaluations by key leading thinkers have not been able to ascribe a disease prevention function to carotenoids because of the absence of definitive evidence. These leading thinkers recommend that future research on the role of carotenoids in disease focus on the complexities of diet, genetics and environment in the disease process. This research is important to make it possible for consumers to derive optimal health promoting benefits from fruits and vegetables in the context of changing dietary patterns.

    Abstract Objectives: As HIV-positive people age, diagnosis and management of comorbidities associated with ageing are of increasing concern. In this study, we aimed to compare the self-reported prevalences of heart disease, stroke, thrombosis and diabetes in older Australian HIV-positive and HIV-negative gay and bisexual men (GBM).
    Methods: We analysed data from the Australian Positive & Peers Longevity Evaluation Study (APPLES), a study of a prospectively recruited cross-sectional sample of 228 (51.1%) HIV-positive and 218 (48.9%) HIV-negative GBM, aged ≥ 55 years. Regression methods were used to assess the association of HIV status with self-reported comorbidities.
    Results: Of 446 patients, 389 [200 (51.4%) HIV-positive] reported their disease history. The reported prevalence of comorbidities was higher in the HIV-positive group than in the HIV-negative group: heart disease, 19.5 versus 12.2%; stroke, 7.5 versus 4.2%; thrombosis, 10.5 versus 4.2%; and diabetes, 15.0 versus 9.0%, respectively. In adjusted analyses, HIV-positive GBM had significantly increased odds of reporting heart disease [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.99; P = 0.03] and thrombosis (aOR 2.87; P = 0.01). In our analysis, HIV status was not significantly associated with either age at diagnosis of heart disease (median 53 years for HIV-positive GBM versus 55 years for HIV-negative GBM; P = 0.64) or 5-year cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk estimated using the Framingham risk score.
    Conclusions: HIV-positive GBM more commonly reported heart disease and thrombosis compared with their HIV-negative peers. These results further highlight the need to understand the impact of HIV on age-related comorbidities in GBM, to guide optimal screening and treatment strategies to reduce the risk of these comorbidities among the HIV-positive population.

    Abstract The striking decline in HIV load with highly active antiretroviral combination therapy (HAART) is accompanied by substantial improvements in immune function, even in patients with more advanced disease. These include a general reduction in immune activation with increases in total CD4 and CD8 cell counts, memory and naive T cell subsets and antigen responses to certain opportunistic pathogens. At this time, it appears that HAART-induced improvements in function are limited to those T cells that have not yet been completely depleted by HIV. Long-term studies are needed to determine whether complete functional restoration of the repertoire is possible. Clinically, HAART improves survival and reduces progression of HIV disease. Some patients with active opportunistic disorders demonstrate complete or partial resolution of the infection or malignancy. However, persons with subclinical Mycobacterium avium complex or cytomegalovirus retinitis and those with chronic hepatitis B virus infection may sometimes experience acute flares if prophylactic therapy against the underlying disorder is not included in the regimen.
