RATIONALE: HIV pathology has been associated with accelerated aging of the infected organism, with no known knowledge of virus, immunosuppression, immune response stimulation, antiretroviral toxicity, and "classic" risks. The data are in good standing from a multicenter cohort with high statistical power but very heterogeneous and not exhaustive. A complementary approach by small, comprehensive cohorts is desirable. POPULATION CONCERNED: HIV-positive persons OBJECTIVE To describe the aging of the physiological functions of people living with HIV. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES Assess the determinants (virus / HAART / Immunity / environment) Compare to the general population (historical comparisons) Compare to main body functions MAIN EVALUATION CRITERIA respiratory functional tests, memory test, IMTc, ECG, creatininemia, cancer, Fibroscan, bone densitometry... SECONDARY EVALUATION CRITERIA Age, sex, phototype, CD4 lymphocytes count, viral load, nadir CD4, antiretroviral exposure, alcohol, tobacco ... METHODOLOGY Monocentric retrospective study STATISTICS Frailty model, chi2 test, test U INCLUSION CRITERIA Seropositive for HIV, age\>18 years Follow-up at least once in the Internal Medicine department between 1995 and 2018 CRITERIA OF EXCLUSION Refusal of the patient or unreachable patient NUMBER OF PATIENTS Between 200 and 300 CALENDAR Duration of inclusions: 3 months Duration of participation of the patient: 20 years (retrospectives ...) Duration of the study: 1 year
