“…4e8, 15,21,28e30 A collective influence of these tools on the vascular system is recognized, but the exact individual contribution requires appraisal. 35,36 Hence, although endovascular interventions can be performed in HIV-patients, the localized mechanical interventions are also subjected to these systemic HIV-related pathophysiological complexities. 3e7,14 Currently there are no structured guidelines advising on the respective roles of surgical and endovascular treatment for the management of vascular pathology in HIV patients.…”

In the immediate short term, an 'endovascular first' strategy was associated with good outcomes in HIV patients with aneurysmal disease. By contrast, outcomes were poor in HIV patients with occlusive disease. Whether this relates to the underlying natural history of HIV occlusive vasculopathies remains unclear. One major problem in trying to formulate meaningful management strategies is a generalised reluctance for HIV patients to return for surveillance.

“…If there is no additional risk, retest 3e6 months after the start of treatment and then annually. 11,19,20 (2) Electrocardiography: due to the increased risk of heart disease, a resting 12-lead electrocardiogram is recommended. 16 (3) BMD: the literature recommends that for all HIV-infected postmenopausal women and men aged > 50 years BMD should be tested and, if normal, the test should be repeated every 2e5 years.…”

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has infected > 60 million people since its discovery and 30 million people have died since the pandemic began. Antiretroviral therapy has transformed HIV infection from an acute to a chronic disease, increasing life expectancy but also adding to the potential side effects associated with drug therapy and the comorbidity accompanying longevity. Exercise can play a valuable role in the management of HIV/AIDS patients by addressing various symptoms and improving their quality of life, but the optimum mode, intensity, frequency, and duration of exercise that take the different clinical stages of the disease into consideration are inadequately known. Searches of Medline, Embase, Science Citation Index, CINAHL database, HealthSTAR, PsycINFO, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro), and SPORTDiscus were conducted between 2000 and January 2014. Searches of published and unpublished abstracts were conducted, as well as a hand search of reference lists and tables of contents of relevant journals and books. Identified studies were reviewed for methodological quality. A total of 33 studies met the inclusion criteria. Most studies failed to indicate the optimum type (mode), intensity, frequency, and duration of aerobic and progressive resistive exercise prescribed to HIV-infected individuals in relation to the different clinical stages of the disease. The purpose of this review is to provide evidence-based recommendations after revision of exercise guidelines for HIV patients, by highlighting practical guidelines that clinical exercise therapists should consider when prescribing exercise for patients in different stages of the disease.

“…HIV treatment involves administration of antiretroviral drugs that suppress viral replication and increase immune function (Kavanagh et al, 2015). These drugs have greatly increased the life span of people living with HIV (PLWH), making them susceptible to chronic disease (Desai et al, 2015; Neto, Zwirtes, & Brites, 2013). Thus, adaptation of a healthy lifestyle that includes regular physical activity (PA) is important to long term health in PLWH.…”

Engaging in regular physical activity (PA) is important in maintaining health and increasing the overall quality of life of people living with HIV (PLWH). The Deep South of the USA is known for its high rate of sedentary behavior although data on the activity levels and perceptions of the benefits and barriers to exercise in women living with HIV in the Deep South are lacking. Understanding the perceived benefits and barriers to exercise can guide the development of PA interventions. We conducted a cross-sectional study to determine the PA levels and perceived benefits and barriers to exercise associated with both age and depression level in a group of HIV+ women living in the Deep South. We recruited a total of 50 participants from a cohort site for the Women’s Interagency HIV Study. Depression was assessed using the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) and benefits/barriers to exercise were measured using the Exercise Benefits and Barriers Scale (EBBS). We measured PA both subjectively and objectively using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and a Fitbit physical activity monitor, respectively. Our sample was predominantly African American (96%) and the mean ±SD age, BMI, and CES-D score were 42 ±8.8 years, 36.6 ±11.5 kg/m2, and 15.6 ±11.4, respectively. Both subjective and objective measures of PA indicated that our participants were sedentary. The greatest perceived benefit to exercise was physical performance and the greatest barrier to exercise was physical exertion. Higher overall perceived benefits were reported by women ≥43 years and women reporting higher levels of depression. There was no difference in overall barriers associated with age and depression level, but women with depression felt more fatigued by exercise. The results of this study can be helpful when designing and implementing PA interventions in women living with HIV in the Deep South.
