Cover Story: The mortality rate among individuals diagnosed during the pre-Highly Active Antiretroviral Treatment era was substantial. Our retrospective single-center study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of HIV long-term survivors in a cohort of people living with HIV diagnosed between 1985 and 1994, and to speculate about potential predictive factors associated with long-term survival. Subjects surviving more than 300 months (25 years) from HIV diagnosis were defined as long-term survivors. Overall, 210 subjects were enrolled. A hazard ratio of 12.45 (95% CI 7.91-19.59) was found between individuals who were exposed to HAART and individuals who were not, with the latter being at greater risk of death. The availability and accessibility of effective antiretroviral therapy for people living with HIV remain the cornerstone of survival.
