The aim of this study was to describe the relationships among home-based physical activity, fatigue, sleep, gender and quality life in people living with HIV/AIDS BACKGROUND: Fatigue is a common distressing symptom HIV/AIDS. Few interventions exist that effectively reduce fatigue population. Physical activity has shown promise other populations, but its impact on not yet been explored.
Background: Africa has a disproportionate burden of HIV-related cardiovascular disease. We aimed to describe physical activity in people living with HIV (PLHIV) and without (PWOH) Uganda characterize its relationship the presence computed tomography angiography-detected (CCTA) coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods: performed cross-sectional analysis Ugandan Study Effects on Myocardium Atherosclerosis using Computed Tomography (mUTIMA-CT) cohort. From 2017–2019, PLHIV PWOH was assessed by...
To examine the relationship between body mass index (BMI), abdominal adiposity, handgrip strength and physical function in people with HIV (PWH), to explore potential influence of activity (PA) diet on this relationship. Cross-sectional analyses. The PROSPER-HIV Study was conducted at four clinical sites across United States. Eligible participants were antiretroviral therapy had a viral load <200 copies/mL. Measures included: a) strength; b) function, assessed Short Physical Performance...
Objective: To examine the effect of a lifestyle behavior intervention (SystemCHANGE) on physical activity and diet quality among sedentary people living with HIV (PLHIV). All participants expressed desire to improve health behaviors. Methods: One hundred seven HIV+ adults were randomized either (6, in-person, standardized group sessions focusing improving behaviors) or control condition (general advice AHA exercise guidelines). wore an ActiGraph accelerometer completed 24-hour dietary...
Abstract Modifications to Fried's frailty phenotype (FFP) are common. We evaluated a self-reported modified (Mod-FP) used among people with HIV (PWH). Among 522 PWH engaged in two longitudinal studies, we assessed validity of the four-item Mod-FP compared five-item FFP. phenotypes via receiver operator characteristic curves, agreement classifying frailty, and criterion association having experienced falls. classified 8% as frail, whereas FFP 9%. The area under curve for was 0.93 (95% CI =...
The zebrafish (Danio rerio) has been used as a model for studying vertebrate development in the cardiovascular system. In order to monitor heart contraction and cytosolic calcium oscillations, fish were either embedded methylcellulose or anesthetized with tricaine. Using high-resolution differential interference contrast (DIC) imaging microscopy, we here show that dopamine verapamil alter signaling muscle zebrafish, but not zebrafish. fish, increases amplitude of oscillation subsequent...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has had a rapid and sustained negative impact on sleep mental health in the United States with disproportionate morbidity mortality among socioeconomically deprived populations. We used multivariable logistic regression to evaluate associations duration, health, socioeconomic deprivation (social index) 14,676 Ohio residents from 1101 zip code tabulation areas 2020 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) survey. Higher was associated shorter...
WHAT IS KNOWN ON THE SUBJECT?: Depression affects 1 in 20 Americans, and people living with HIV experience depression at 2-3 times the rate of general population. Recent research has shown that a person's level social connectedness (e.g., networks) is important to understanding their health ability get help when they need it. The scientific rationale this work determine whether there direct relationship between levels measure who are higher than normal risk depressive symptoms. THIS PAPER...
We conducted an observational cross-sectional study to explore whether food insecurity or undernutrition was associated with frailty low physical functioning in aging persons HIV (PWH). Forty-eight PWH aged 50 years and older were enrolled. Independent samples t -tests chi-square tests used examine the relationship of function. Participants 58.6 (±6.3) old, 83% male, 77% White, 21% Hispanic. In total, 44% experienced 71% undernutrition, whereas 23% frail 69% prefrail. Food impaired total...
Background: Low food security is common among people with HIV (PWH) and associated poorer health outcomes. Frailty, an aging-related outcome that increasingly prevalent PWH, may be stimulated by low security. We assessed associations between frailty PWH. Methods: The Impact of Physical Activity Routines Dietary Intake on the Longitudinal Symptom Experience People Living (PROSPER-HIV) study follows PWH to evaluate how diet physical activity impact symptoms. utilized data from PROSPER-HIV Year...

Background: People living with HIV (PLHIV) are at elevated risk of developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). PLHIV do not engage in recommended levels ASCVD prevention behaviors, perhaps due to a reduced perception for ASCVD. We examined how status influences knowledge, beliefs, and behaviors. Methods Results: conducted mixed-methods study 191 demographically similar HIV-uninfected adults. Participants completed self-reported surveys on CVD perceptions, adherence medication...
People living with HIV (PLWH) experience high rates of fatigue, which can be improved physical activity. We examined relationships between infection, cardiorespiratory fitness, activity, and myokines. Twenty PLWH 20 HIV-uninfected adults completed a fatigue assessment, maximal cardiometabolic exercise test, serum measures myokines, wore an accelerometer for 7 days. Measures were at baseline, 3 months, 6 months. At had more (4.7 ± 2.6 vs. 2.8 2.5, p = .01) higher peak ventilatory efficiency...
BACKGROUND: This study examined interview data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005 to 2016. AIM: To determine national trends in self-reported depressive symptoms. METHOD: Depressive symptoms were assessed using on nine-item Patient Questionnaire (PHQ-9), with a total score ≥10 an individual item of 2 or 3, indicating greater severity. RESULTS: A 31,191 individuals contributed PHQ-9 The absolute proportion increased 6.2% 8.1%. After adjustment for participant...
ABSTRACTThe COVID-19 pandemic's impact on cardiovascular health behaviors including diet, physical activity, medication adherence, and self-care among people living with HIV (PLWH) remains unknown. Using qualitative analyses, we examined the of pandemic PLWH. Twenty-four PLWH were enrolled in this multisite study from September to October 2020. Individuals participated semi-structured telephone interviews that recorded, transcribed, coded by 4 independent coders. Codes adjudicated analyzed...
Objectives: People with HIV (PWH) are aging and experiencing higher rates of abdominal adiposity. Physical activity is an effective nonpharmacological strategy to reduce adiposity in the general population. Yet, relationship between physical people well controlled unclear. Our objective was describe association objectively-measured PWH. Methods: As part multisite, observational PROSPER-HIV study, virologically suppressed, adult PWH wore Actigraph accelerometer for 7–10 days completed...
Fatigue and depressive symptoms are prevalent associated with poor clinical outcomes, though the underlying physiological mechanisms of fatigue depression poorly understood. We examined impact cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) on in one-hundred nine PLHIV. CRF was by maximal stress test determined peak oxygen uptake. Patient-reported utilizing HIV-Related Scale. Depressive were Beck Depression Inventory PROMISE 29. Data collected at baseline six months. Generalized estimating equations used to...
The High-Intensity Exercise Study to Attenuate Limitations and Train Habits in Older Adults With HIV (HEALTH), which incorporates an exercise biobehavioral coaching intervention, has the following overall goals: (a) determine whether high-intensity interval training (HIIT) mitigates physical function impairments, fatigue, impairments mitochondrial bioenergetics of older people living with (PLWH) a greater extent than continuous moderate (CME); (b) mobile health text messaging intervention...
