“…It is well established that HIV infection is associated with observable nutritional alterations that occur across all stages of the disease (Fields-Gardner & Fergusson, 2004). Symptoms such as anorexia, nausea, malabsorption, and diarrhea are common manifestations of the infection, and thought to be associated with abnormalities of gastrointestinal function (Shevitz & Knox, 2001).…”

“…There is a substantial body of evidence indicating that antiretroviral therapy that incorporates strategies to prevent and treat nutritional complications specific to HIV and substance abuse offers many benefits, including a reduction in morbidity, shortening of hospital stays, and a subsequent improvement in the quality of life (Fawzi et al, 2004;Fields-Gardner & Ayoob, 2000;Virmani, Binienda, Ali, & Gaetani, 2006). A rapid screening for nutritional risks at the onset of a detoxification program helps maximize a pharmacological intervention and physical stabilization (Fleming, 2002), while encouraging individuals to consume adequate in calories, protein, and essential micronutrients has been shown to advance the recovery process (Hendricks, Mwamburi, Newby, & Wanke, 2008).…”

It is well established that poor nutritional status leaves HIV-positive substance abusers especially vulnerable to an increased risk of opportunistic infections and other illnesses. Socioecological frameworks have been useful for identifying multiple influences on health risks, leading to the development and evaluation of promising community-based interventions for diseases such as cancer and diabetes. This article presents a conceptual model, based on the socioecological approach, to examine the mechanisms and pathways by which the various contextual factors unique to HIV-positive African American women with substance abuse disorders intersect to impact their nutritional health outcomes. The mediating effects of the interpersonal, environmental, and psychological factors on the direct links between disease symptomology, demographic and socioeconomic variables, and nutritional health are emphasized. The long-term goal is to provide the empirical foundation necessary to design targeted interventions that meet the unique personal, social, and familial needs of this population with multiple vulnerabilities.

“…Aunque con la Terapia Antiretroviral de Gran Actividad (TARGA) han disminuido los casos de desnutrición y caquexia, persisten la disminución del apetito, ingesta alimentaria y pérdida de peso [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] . La dietoterapia forma parte del tratamiento integral de personas con infección por VIH, dado el riesgo de sufrir trastornos nutricionales y posibles efectos adversos de las medicaciones que pueden tener un impacto negativo en el estado nutricional e ingesta alimentaria [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] .…”

“…Food and nutrition insecurity have been linked worldwide to the transmission of HIV and poor outcomes related to HIV disease (2) . Other consequences of food insecurity include poor nutritional status, which may hasten progression of the disease, undermine adherence and response to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and exacerbate socio-economic impacts of the virus (3) .…”

“…Food security (FS) can be assessed by a range of methodologies, including a face-to-face interview and questionnaires. A number of questionnaires have been used in the past (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7) . Some of these were long and time consuming for patients to complete, and a modified version six-item FS questionnaire (FSQ) was subsequently developed and validated to measure food security in American households (5,8) .…”

Objective: To validate a two-item food security questionnaire (FSQ) for use in a clinical setting to screen HIV-1 infected patients for food insecurity. Design: The present study was a questionnaire-based survey of forty-nine subjects attending an HIV clinic. Subjects completed a two-item questionnaire and a six-item validated FSQ contemporaneously. Results: A strong correlation was found between the two-item and six-item FSQ (r 5 0?895; 95 % CI 0?821, 0?940; P , 0?0001). Cronbach's a coefficient was found to be 0?94 and 0?90 for the two-item and six-item FSQ, respectively. The two-item FSQ yielded a sensitivity of 100 % (95 % CI 75, 100) and a specificity of 78 % (95 % CI 61, 90). The negative predictive value was found to be 100 % (95 % CI 88, 100). Conclusions:The results of the present study suggest that the two-item FSQ is a valid, reliable and sensitive screening tool of food insecurity in people living with HIV in a clinical setting.
