Health problems and challenges due to aging among people living with HIV aged 50 and older: a qualitative study.
Article in BMC public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundWith the advancement of treatment, the number of older people living with HIV is gradually increasing. This study aimed to explore age-related changes in health problems and challenges in health management among older adults living with HIV in Korea.
methodsThis study used a qualitative descriptive design. The participants included 12 people living with HIV aged 50 and older. Data were collected through individual interviews using open and semi-structured questions from September 2023 to January 2024. They were analyzed using conventional content analysis methods as suggested by Elo and Kyngäs, utilizing MAXQDA 24 software.
resultsTwo main themes, five generic categories, and 12 sub-categories were identified regarding health issue changes and health management challenges and limitations in daily life among the participants. The five generic categories were “stabilization of HIV treatment,” “health issues due to aging,” “physical aspects,” “mental aspects,” and “social aspects.”
conclusionWhile treatment for HIV infection among older people living with HIV has stabilized, new health problems due to aging and difficulties in health management in physical, mental, and social aspects have emerged. It is necessary to understand the health problems and difficulties in health management of older people living with HIV and solve them through active intervention. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
