Abstract Background Sleep disturbance is the leading health problem in the era of HIV/AIDS. The exact cause of sleep disturbance was not well known, but it is related to HIV itself, antiretroviral drugs side effect, and other HIV related disorders. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of sleep disturbance and associated factors among adult people living with HIV/AIDS. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 419 study participants participated in the study. A systematic random sampling method was employed. An interviewer-administered a method of data collection with a chart review was used. Pittsburg Sleep Quality of Index for assessing sleep disturbance was used. A binary logistic regression was conducted. The variables having a p-value < 0.05 with 95% CI were used to declare an association. Results The prevalence of sleep disturbance was 36% (95% CI: 31–41%). The study revealed that being female (AOR = 3.45, 95% CI: 1.52–7.79), viral loads ≥ 1000 copies /ml (AOR = 6.88, 95% CI: 2.79–16.9), CD4 cell count < 200 cells/mm3 (AOR = 6.85, 95% CI: 2.42–19.39), WHO stage II and III(AOR = 4.29, 95%CI: 1.05–17.53), having anxiety (AOR = 10,95% CI: 4.21–23.9), having depression (AOR = 4.4, 95% CI: 1.95–10.1), having not a separated bedroom (AOR = 3.94, 95% CI: 1.86–8.36), and living alone (AOR = 6, 95% CI: 2.81–13.12) were found to be factors associated with sleep disturbance. Conclusion In this study, more than one - thirds of the study participants were developed sleep disturbance. Being female, low CD4 cell counts, viral load ≥ 1000copies/ml, WHO stage II and III, having depression and anxiety, living alone, and have not a separate bedroom have increased the experience of sleep disturbance.

Background: The advent of antiretroviral (ARV) drugs has transformed HIV/AIDS into a chronic manageable disease and strict adherence is required for the medication to be effective. However, factors influencing adherence to ARV therapy (ART) vary from country to country.Method: 120 subjects who received ARV drugs at a federal government-designated ART site located within the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital complex, (OAUTHC), Ile-Ife, and a community-based non-governmental organisation, Living Hope Care (LIHOC), Ilesa, from February to May 2006 were serially recruited and studied. Relevant data were collected using an interviewer-administered, patient medication adherence questionnaire. Focus group discussions were also held among the subjects to further elicit qualitative information on factors influencing adherence to ART.Results: The age of participants ranged from 21 to 65 years with a mean age of 40.2 + 10.3 years. Participants had been on ARV drugs for a period ranging between three and 60 months. The overall adherence rate in the study population was 44%. 66% of participants who accessed ARV drugs from LIHOC, Ilesa, had good adherence while only 14% of participants who accessed ARV drugs from OAUTHC, Ile-Ife, had good adherence. Participants with good adherence did not pay funds for the preliminary ARV eligibility investigations and they were also offered regular adherence counselling. These facilities were barely available in the group with poor adherence. Demographic factors such as age, gender and marital status did not seem to have any significant association with adherence level (p > 0.05).Conclusion: The level of adherence was high in a cohort of PLWHA accessing ARV drugs in Ilesa while it was low among PLWHA receiving ART in Ife. The most important reasons for this difference were lack of funds for investigations and poor psycho-social counselling.

The objective of this study was to describe the medical, attitudinal and cultural correlates of antiretroviral uptake amongst people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in Australia. Stratified purposive sampling produced a sample of 925 PLWHA, which represents 8.3% of the current population of PLWHA in Australia. Respondents completed a self-administered questionnaire which revealed that 78% of respondents were using antiretroviral drugs for HIV/AIDS. Logistic regression revealed that PLWHA were more likely to use antiretroviral drugs if they had more favourable attitudes toward antiretroviral drugs, if they had been diagnosed with an AIDS-defining illness, and if they had ever had a CD4/T-cell count below 400 copies/ml blood. Women were less likely than men to use antiretroviral drugs, and logistic regression revealed different predictors of antiretroviral drug use amongst men and women. Given the importance of attitudes toward antiretroviral drugs, it is likely that if the current confidence in antiretroviral drugs were to change, this would be reflected in an equally rapid cessation of treatment amongst many PLWHA.

There were 7 people living with HIV with family support and disobedience (17.9%), 18 people living with HIV without family support and disobedience, 32 people living with HIV receiving family support and obedience ), as well as PLWHA who do not receive family support and obey as many as 18 people (50.0%) with a value of p = 0.007 (p <0.05) and 95% CI and OR 4.57 (1.6-13.02) times greater than not being able to support the family. The education level of PLWHA at the Serang Banten Regional General Hospital in 2020 was mostly low education respondents (SMP and SMA), namely as many as 47 people (62.7%), greater than respondents with high education (Academy / Bachelor) only 28 people (37, 3%). There were 21 people with low education and non-compliance with HIV / AIDS, 4 people with higher education and non-adherence (14.3%), 26 people living with HIV with low education and obedience (55, 3%), as well as PLWHA with higher education and obedience as many as 24 people (85.7%) with a value of p = 0.014 (p <0.05) and CI 95% and OR 4.846 times greater than those with low education.Conclusion: There is a significant relationship between family support and education level with adherence to taking ARV drugs in PLHIV. Keywords: Family support and education level, compliance with ARV medication, PLWHABSTRAK: HUBUNGAN DUKUNGAN KELUARGA DAN TINGKAT PENDIDIKAN PASIEN TERHADAP KEPATUHAN MINUM OBAT ANTIRETROVIRAL PASIEN HIV AIDS DI POLI RSUD DR.

<pre><span>Cases of death in HIV / AIDS are still a benchmark for the success of treatment. Studies of predictors of death in people with HIV in the general population are still very limited. Longitudinal analytic with a retrospective approach using cohort data of patients receiving antiretroviral drugs at Buleleng General Hospital in the period 2006-2015. Analysis uses logistic regression with SPSS version 17. Results show a total of 1204 that the incidence of total mortality rate is 3 per 100 person years. 50% of deaths occurred at 0.14 years of observation. Men and the general functional status of employment were predictors of death in PLHAs. Men have a risk of death 2.12 times higher than that of women (aOR 2.12 (p 0.01 CI 1.28-3.51). Functional status of beds increases the risk of death aOR 2.14 (CI 1.39-3.29 p 0.01).Men have a risk of death evaluation of the success of antiretroviral therapy considers studies and differences in needs between women and men.The functional status of beds shows a poor clinical condition that increases the risk of death in people with HIV. Evaluation of regularity of treatment and the incidence of gender-based deaths should be done more intensively.</span></pre>
