A new systematic review and meta-analysis has found that the pooled prevalence of undernutrition among HIV-positive adults in Ethiopia is significantly high, with a pooled prevalence of 26.70% (95% CI: 21.31%, 32.10%). The study, conducted by researchers at Wolaita Sodo University, identified opportunistic infections (OIs), advanced WHO
HIV
As researchers progress in finding a cure for HIV, it is crucial to understand how analytical treatment interruptions (ATIs) interact with HIV-specific immune responses. A new study published in Current Opinion in HIV and AIDS discussed the importance of carefully designed ATIs in evaluating new therapies. According to the research,
HIV
The increasing complexity of HIV care is outpacing traditional treatment approaches, with individuals living with HIV experiencing age-related co-morbidities and taking multiple medications, presenting a significant challenge for healthcare providers. Research from Imperial College London highlights inconsistencies in defining and assessing polypharmacy in HIV research, with some studies relying on
Cardiovascular diseases
Researchers have found that people living with HIV (PLHIV) are at a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) due to the presence of HIV infection. This increased risk is attributed to higher levels of inflammation and immune activation associated with the virus. A recent study published in PeerJ has

According to recent research presented by the University of California, geriatric syndromes are multifactorial age-related changes that are associated with functional decline in women living with HIV (WWH). The study found that WWH demonstrate an increased risk for osteoporosis and cognitive decline compared to men and to women without HIV,

Fresh data on HIV/AIDS are presented in a new report, highlighting the importance of understanding how deliverers use research and select interventions to reduce the gap between developing and delivering effective implementation strategies. Researchers at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine conducted an in-depth study, interviewing health organizations and
