It is concluded that reducing SB and being physically active contribute to improving the QoL of PLHIV, particularly in relation to general function and life satisfaction.
Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the relationship between physical activity (PA) level, sedentary behavior (SB) duration, and the quality of life (QoL) among people living with HIV (PLWH). In total, 183 PLHIV from a Reference Center in Santarém, Pará, Brazil, participated in this cross-sectional study. Information was collected on socioeconomic, clinical, QoL, PA, and SB variables. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, adopting p<0.05. Participants had a mean age of 36.49±11.27 years, and most were male (58%). Physically active PLWH showed higher scores for their overall function (p=0.002) and life satisfaction (p=0.002) domains, compared with physically inactive individuals. Physical inactivity was associated with trust in the professional domain (p=0.036), while SB >4 h/day was negatively associated with overall function (p=0.003). It is concluded that reducing SB and being physically active contribute to improving the QoL of PLHIV, particularly in relation to general function and life satisfaction.
