Abstract

Sexual problems, such as difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection, also known as ED, are common among men living with HIV. However, there is limited understanding of the factors associated with ED among this group. The purpose of this study was to conduct a systematic review of the predictors of ED among men living with HIV. We conducted thorough searches of internet search engines and various electronic research databases using specific keywords to March 2024. Original articles in Persian and English that examined the predictors of ED in HIV-infected men were eligible for inclusion. Two independent reviewers conducted data extraction and assessment. The study included thirty articles involving 65 to 5682 participants. The primary risk factors for ED included demographic characteristics (such as age, nicotine use, unemployment, and lower education level), psychological factors (fear of virus transmission, depression, anxiety, and a history of emotional, physical, or sexual abuse), treatment-related factors (long-term use of ART medication and delayed ART initiation), health-related factors (hepatitis B infection, current diabetes, dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis, substance abuse, poor sleep quality, and sleep apnea), and socioeconomic issues (stigma, negative HIV coping, and poverty). Higher levels of social support were associated with a lower risk of ED. This systematic review indicated that certain demographic characteristics, psychological, treatment-related, health-related factors, and socioeconomic issues among men living with HIV predict the likelihood of experiencing ED. Healthcare providers should consider incorporating routine ED assessments using validated tools as part of follow-up programs to improve the overall well-being of men living with HIV.

艾滋病病毒感染者勃起功能障碍的预测因素:最新系统综述
性问题,如难以实现或维持勃起,也称为 ED,在感染 HIV 的男性中很常见。然而,人们对这一群体中与 ED 相关的因素了解有限。本研究旨在对男性 HIV 感染者 ED 的预测因素进行系统性回顾。截至 2024 年 3 月,我们使用特定关键词对互联网搜索引擎和各种电子研究数据库进行了全面搜索。研究艾滋病男性感染者ED预测因素的波斯语和英语原创文章均符合纳入条件。两名独立审稿人进行了数据提取和评估。研究共纳入了 30 篇文章,涉及 65 到 5682 名参与者。ED的主要风险因素包括人口统计学特征(如年龄、尼古丁使用、失业和教育水平较低)、心理因素(对病毒传播的恐惧、抑郁、焦虑和情感、身体或性虐待史)、与治疗相关的因素(长期使用抗逆转录病毒疗法药物和延迟开始抗逆转录病毒疗法)、与健康相关的因素(乙型肝炎感染、糖尿病、血脂异常、动脉粥样硬化、药物滥用、睡眠质量差和睡眠呼吸暂停)以及社会经济问题(污名化、消极应对艾滋病和贫困)。较高水平的社会支持与较低的 ED 风险相关。该系统综述表明,男性艾滋病感染者的某些人口统计学特征、心理、治疗相关因素、健康相关因素以及社会经济问题都预示着出现 ED 的可能性。医疗服务提供者应考虑将使用有效工具进行常规ED评估作为随访计划的一部分,以改善男性HIV感染者的整体健康状况。

期刊介绍: International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences (IJANS) is an international scientific journal published by Elsevier. The broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets, i.e. to publish the most exciting research with respect to the subjects of Nursing and Midwifery in Africa, and secondly, to advance the international understanding and development of nursing and midwifery in Africa, both as a profession and as an academic discipline. The fully refereed journal provides a forum for all aspects of nursing and midwifery sciences, especially new trends and advances. The journal call for original research papers, systematic and scholarly review articles, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing as related to nursing and midwifery in Africa, technical reports, and short communications, and which will meet the journal''s high academic and ethical standards. Manuscripts of nursing practice, education, management, and research are encouraged. The journal values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic significance for educators, practitioners, leaders and policy-makers of nursing and midwifery in Africa. The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of nursing, and is also inviting international scholars who are engaged with nursing and midwifery in Africa to contribute to the journal. We will only publish work that demonstrates the use of rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of nursing and midwifery as it relates to the Africa context.
