“…Regarding gender, several authors, in agreement with the findings of the present study, have found that men are the most affected, regardless of age 11,13,20,21,28 , although a process of feminization is occurring 15,27,29 . In the study period, it was observed that in three years (2008, 2010 and 2011) the number of notifications was higher among women.…”

“…A greater number of cases was reported in the state among males aged between 60 and 69 years, characterizing them as the predominant segment and probably the "diffusing hub" of the epidemic 11,19 . It should be noted that although there was a reduction in the proportion of men in notified cases in the years 2006 to 2011, this figure increased again from 2012 to 2014.…”

“…Among the factors cited to explain the increase in the number of HIV/AIDS cases among the elderly population are the increase in the use of medications to control sexual impotence, prejudice in relation to sexuality in old age 11 , the shortage of health strategies that inform the elderly about the prevention of sexually transmitted infections and the lack of knowledge of pathology of this population segment 12,13 . In response to the increased incidence of HIV among the elderly, in 2008 and 2009 the National STD and AIDS Program carried out campaigns that sought to emphasize the importance of using condoms in sexual relations.…”

Objective: to describe the historical sequence and characteristics of reported cases of HIV/AIDS among the elderly in the state of Ceará from 2005 to 2014. Method: a descriptive study was carried out, based on the Ministry of Health database, available in SINAN (Disease Cases Notification Information System) from January 2005 to December 2014. The variables studied were: gender, race, schooling, marital status and exposure category. Result: a total of 10,299 new cases were reported in the state, 1.5% (151) of which related to the elderly. The majority of those affected lived in Fortaleza (85.6%), were aged between 60 and 69 years (86.8%), were male (60.9%), brown (61.6%), had a level of schooling below unfinished elementary (42%), were heterosexual (85.4%) and had a marital status of married (29.3%). The proportion of male/female cases peaked in 2005 (5.5: 1) and declined thereafter reaching an average value of 0.8: 1 in the period between 2008 and 2011, then increased again, reaching 3.3: 1 in 2014. The highest coefficients were observed in the groups with lower schooling. Conclusion: according to the notifications during the period evaluated, AIDS among the elderly showed a tendency of growth among men, aged between 60 and 69 years old, who were heterosexual, less educated and married. This justifies the strengthening of specific strategies aimed at this population with the objective of tackling the disease.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of three temporal components of AIDS incidence (i.e., age, period and cohort) on individuals aged 50 or older living in Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). Methods: Age-specific incidence rates were calculated from 1982–2011. Negative binomial and Poisson models were used to analyze the risk of AIDS by age, period and cohort. Results: The risk of AIDS in men was 2.45 times higher than in women, regardless of age and period (p-value < 0.001). The incidence of AIDS in individuals older than 69 years was 7-fold lower than in those aged 50–59 years (p-value < 0.001). A decreasing trend in AIDS risk was observed from the youngest cohort (≥1940) to the oldest (1910–1919). From 1982 to 2006, we could detect an increasing trend in AIDS risk in the population aged 50 years or older. A peak in rates was detected in the period from 2002–2006. The incidence rates in 2002–2006 were six times higher than those in 1987–1991 (p-value < 0.001), independent of age and sex (p-value < 0.001). Conclusions: An increase of AIDS risk in older people was detected. This group should not be neglected by public health programs.

“…A sexualidade faz parte da vida de qualquer indivíduo em qualquer idade, porém, quando relacionada à população idosa, apresenta-se cercada de mitos e crenças (Alencar, & Ciosak, 2014) influenciados por um estereótipo dominante de que idosos são "pessoas assexuadas" (Melo, Leal, Marques, & Marino, 2012). Alguns fatores relacionados à mudança na vida sexual dos idosos incluem os recentes avanços da indústria farmacêutica que permitem o prolongamento da vida sexual ativa e as mudanças de atitudes e comportamentos sexuais, associadas à desmistificação do sexo entre esses indivíduos (Oliveira, Paz, & Melo, 2013). Essa relação do idoso com as novas possibilidades para a atividade sexual ativa traz benefícios para a manutenção de sua qualidade de vida, porém também os tornam pessoas vulneráveis às Infecções Sexualmente Transmissíveis (IST's) (Oliveira, Paz, & Melo, 2013 (Brasil, 2015).…”

Este estudo objetiva determinar o perfil sociodemográfico dos idosos com HIV/AIDS, no Brasil, a partir de uma revisão bibliográfica na base de dados SciELO. Foram analisados 12 artigos publicados em português no período de 2012 a 2018. A infecção apresenta predominância de indivíduos do sexo masculino a partir de 60 anos, de cor branca e com menos de oito anos de escolaridade, sem diferenciação quanto ao estado civil, o que torna imprescindível o cuidado em saúde relacionado à vida sexual desses indivíduos.
