Abstract

Introduction: This study aimed to assess prevalence of back pain among older people living with HIV (PLH) in rural areas of the United States (US); compare the presence of comorbidities, socioeconomic factors, and sociodemographic factors among older PLH in rural areas of the US with and without back pain; and examine the associations between back pain, depression, and QOL among older PLH in rural areas of the US.

Methods: Cross-sectional data was collected among US rural dwelling PLH of at least 50 years of age. Multiple logistic regression was performed to examine the association between back pain and depression. Multiple linear regression was performed to assess the association between back pain and QOL.

Results: A total of 38.8% (n = 164) of participants self-reported back pain. PLH with back pain were more likely to have depression (60.87%, n = 98). PLH with back pain had lower mean QOL scores (53.01 ± 18.39). Back pain was associated with greater odds of having depression (OR 1.61 [CI 0.99-2.61], p = .054) and was significantly associated with lower QOL (p < .001).

Conclusions: Prevention strategies to reduce back pain and poor HIV outcomes among PLH living in rural areas of the US are needed.

美国农村地区感染艾滋病病毒的老年人背痛、抑郁和生活质量之间的关系。

导言：本研究旨在评估美国农村地区老年艾滋病病毒感染者（PLH）的背痛患病率；比较美国农村地区有背痛和无背痛的老年艾滋病病毒感染者的合并症、社会经济因素和社会人口因素；研究美国农村地区老年艾滋病病毒感染者的背痛、抑郁和 QOL 之间的关联：方法：在美国农村地区至少 50 岁的老年 PLH 中收集横断面数据。对背痛和抑郁之间的关系进行了多元逻辑回归分析。采用多元线性回归评估背痛与 QOL 之间的关系：共有 38.8%（n = 164）的参与者自述背部疼痛。患有背痛的 PLH 更有可能患有抑郁症（60.87%，n = 98）。背痛的 PLH 平均 QOL 分数较低（53.01 ± 18.39）。背痛与更高的抑郁几率相关（OR 1.61 [CI0.99-2.61]，p = .054），并与更低的 QOL 显著相关（p 结论：背痛与更高的抑郁几率相关：需要制定预防策略，以减少生活在美国农村地区的艾滋病毒感染者的背痛和不良后果。

期刊介绍： Experimental Aging Research is a life span developmental and aging journal dealing with research on the aging process from a psychological and psychobiological perspective. It meets the need for a scholarly journal with refereed scientific papers dealing with age differences and age changes at any point in the adult life span. Areas of major focus include experimental psychology, neuropsychology, psychobiology, work research, ergonomics, and behavioral medicine. Original research, book reviews, monographs, and papers covering special topics are published.
