Brief Summary

With improved AIDS treatment leading to extended survival, HIV-infected individuals face a higher metabolic syndrome incidence. This study aims to determine the prevalence of Non-AIDS related Comorbidities (NARC) in HIV-infected individuals. Using purposive and snowball sampling, the cross-sectional survey targets 400 HIV-infected individuals aged 30 and above. Data collection includes demographics, physical activity, nutrition, depression, and physiological measurements. Analyzing the data through statistical tests and structural equation modeling, the study aims to provide precise care recommendations for preventive medicine and healthy aging in this population.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Mini Nutritional Assessment

  The points of this assessment is from 0 to 30. The points over 23.5 mean normal nutritional status, 17\~23.5 points mean at risk of malnutrition, less 7 points mean malnourished.

• International Physical Activity Questionnaire

  It is a self-administered survey used to assess an individual's physical activity levels. It aims to measure the amount of physical activity a person engages in across various domains of life, including work, transportation, household chores, and leisure time. The IPAQ typically asks participants about the duration and frequency of their physical activities in the past seven days. The MET-minutes per week score is calculated by multiplying the minutes spent in each activity intensity level by the MET value associated with that activity and then summing these values across all activities. The interpretation of MET-minutes per week is as follows: Low activity: Below 600 MET-minutes per week Moderate activity: 600 to 3000 MET-minutes per week High activity: More than 3000 MET-minutes per week

• Patient Health Questionnaire-9

  The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) is a self-report assessment tool commonly used to screen and measure the severity of depression symptoms in individuals. It consists of 9 items or questions, each assessing different aspects of depression such as mood, energy level, and concentration. The PHQ-9 scores each item on a scale from 0 (not at all) to 3 (nearly every day), with a maximum total score of 27. Higher scores on the PHQ-9 indicate more severe depressive symptoms, while lower scores suggest milder or no depressive symptoms.
