Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed 331 people living with HIV to identify factors linked to low muscle strength, muscle mass, and physical performance using measures like handgrip strength, muscle mass analysis, and chair rise tests.
- Higher body mass index (BMI) and CD4/CD8 ratio were associated with better strength and muscle mass, while being non-employed and having certain health conditions like hypertension and rheumatism increased the risk of low muscle strength.
- Additionally, educational level and employment status significantly impacted chair stand performance, with lower education and non-employment leading to poorer results.
