“…Similar result was found in a study by Jerome et al (28) in which medication adherence was a dependent variable. Based on BMI, the non-adherent patients had higher rates of malnutrition than the adherent patients (38% Vs 28%, p = 0.01) referring < 18 kg/m 2 of BMI as malnutrition.…”

Objectives: (1) To compare means of nutritional scores and means of depression scores from 2016 and 2020 (2) To investigate relationship between nutritional scores and depression scores (3) To establish nutritional score prediction model. Methodology: A longitudinal retrospective survey study was performed. Population were human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected Thai elderly patients aged 50 years and above who were receiving HIV care and had previously participated in the aging cohort study conducted from March 2016 to April 2017 at the HIV-NAT Center, Bangkok, Thailand. Sample size for multiple regression analysis is calculated as 15 cases per 1 independent variable. This study contained 16 variables; then, 240 participants should be included. Purposive sampling method was executed. Results: A total of 250 (100%) participants were included in this study. Most of them were male (60.8%). The mean age was 59.78 ± 5.6 years. The means of nutritional scores declined in 2020 compared to 2016 (24.85 vs 25.78, p < 0.001). The mean depression scores declined in 2020 compared to 2016 (3.14 vs 3.83, p = 0.001). The participants with depression were more likely to be deteriorated in nutritional status over time than those without depression. Nutritional score prediction model confirmed by hierarchical stepwise multiple regression analysis was Nutritional scores =– 0.470 Depression scores** – 0.301 Number of medications** – 0.193 high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ** + 0.126 triglyceride* + 0.105 CD4* Conclusion: Depression scores, number of medications, HDL-C, triglyceride and CD4 were significant predictors of nutritional scores.

“…As studies indicate, undernutrition is reducing drug metabolism, distribution, and effectiveness due to lack of protein carrier [12]. In addition, adherence to ART drugs is low in undernourished HIV/AIDS patients [13]. HIVinfected persons are at higher risk for undernutrition, and certain conditions can magnify the risk, such as anorexia, difficulty swallowing or painful swallowing, malabsorption and diarrhea, altered metabolism of nutrients, increased utilization of nutrients, and greater loss of nutrients [4].…”

Background: Globally, 38 million people were living with HIV in 2019. In Africa, 25 million people are living with HIV/AIDS undernutrition and food insecurity is endemic. Hence, the study aimed to assess the magnitude of undernutrition and associated factors among HIV-infected adults receiving ART. Methods: Institutional based cross-sectional study was conducted among HIV/AIDS patients who followed the ART service was selected by a simple random sampling method. The data were collected by direct interview, using a structured questionnaire. Descriptive statistics and a logistic regression model were employed. Result: The study revealed that the magnitude of undernutrition was 18.8%. The history of opportunistic infection (AOR=4.518:95% CI: 2.304-8.857), Patients taking ART for less than one year (AOR=3.675:95% CI: 1.831-7.377) household food insecure (AOR= 3.113:95% CI: 1.628-5.950) and dietary diversity score (AOR=2.340:95% CI: 1.221-4.485) were found to have a statistically significant association with undernutrition. Conclusion: The magnitude of undernutrition among people living with HIV/AIDS was found to be high. Having an opportunistic infection, duration of taking ART treatment, household food security status, and dietary diversity status were found to statistically significant association with undernutrition.
