HIV and aging among adults aged 50 years and older on antiretroviral therapy in Eswatini

Conclusions: OPLHIV should be screened for NCDs, and services for NCDs should ideally be integrated with HIV services. While all participants had controlled HIV, this study highlights the need for strategies that facilitate OPLHIV's HIV service utilisation. With the increasing numbers of OPLHIV, these issues cannot be ignored.PMID:33685372 | DOI:10.2989/16085906.2021.1887301
