Even though ART improves HIV prognosis and life expectancy, its adherence is hindered by many factors. As the population of older adults living with HIV (OALH) continues to increase, it is important to understand the psychosocial factors that are associated with living with HIV to improve ART adherence. The aim of this study was to determine the association between coping strategies and ART adherence. Data were obtained from 91 OALH at an immunology clinic in Columbia, South Carolina via purposive sampling. The participants were at least 50 years or older and living with HIV. Coping was assessed using the Brief COPE Inventory. Crude and adjusted linear regression models, controlling for age, race, gender, and were used to determine the association between coping strategies and ART adherence. Subgroup analyses were done to determine if the association between coping and ART adherence varied by gender. The analyses were conducted in SAS version 9.4. The mean difference in ART adherence was statistically significant for race (<i>p</i> = 0.0292). There was a statistically significant association between religion and ART adherence (β = -0.718, <i>p</i> = 0.024).

OALH who use religion as a coping strategy were less likely to adhere to ART treatment. Venting and behavioral disengagement tend to be associated with ART adherence among men.

HIV has been linked to earlier onset of multi-morbid chronic diseases and declines in physical and cognitive functioning attributable to chronic HIV immune activation and resulting inflammation. Inflammation has been targeted with mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs); however, hypothesized negative associations between mindfulness and inflammation need to be confirmed in SMM with HIV. This is a secondary data analysis of baseline data from a randomized clinical trial (RCT) of SMM living with HIV with biologically confirmed recent methamphetamine use (ARTEMIS). Mindfulness was assessed with the Five Factor Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ). Inflammation was assessed via cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). Separate adjusted (for age, viral load, CD4 count, and methamphetamine use) regression models evaluated associations between four facets of mindfulness (description, awareness, non-judgement, and non-reactivity) with IL-6 and TNF-α. The average age of the participants was 43.86 (<i>SD</i> = 8.95). Both description (<i>b</i> = .54, <i>se</i> = .24) and awareness (<i>b</i> = .50, <i>se</i>=.23) were positively associated with IL-6. All other associations between mindfulness and inflammation were non-significant in adjusted models. There was also some evidence to suggest that engagement in care moderated associations between description and non-reactivity with IL-6 (Δ<i>R</i>² = .03, <i>F</i> = 3.64), such that description and non-reactivity were each positively associated with inflammation among those who attended <100% of primary care appointments (<i>b</i> = 1.04, <i>se</i>=.34 and <i>b</i> = 1.23, <i>se</i>=.39, respectively), but was not associated with inflammation among those who attended 100% of appointments (<i>b</i> =.16, <i>se</i>=.32 and <i>b</i>=-.17, <i>se</i>=.40, respectively). There was also a significant interaction between 12-step program attendance and awareness with IL-6 (ΔR2= .03, F = 4.26), such that awareness was positively associated with inflammation among those who attended 12-step programming (b = 1.25, se = .41), but not associated with inflammation among those who did not (b = .22, se = .28).

We performed a cross-sectional study comparing two groups of PLHIV: 20 PLHIV with low adherence and 80 PLHIV with high adherence to ART. PLHIV who met at least one of the following criteria were included in the low-adherence group: virological failure (HIV-VL > 50 copies/mL in two consecutive blood samples); low attendance to scheduled clinical visits (≥2 missed visits in last year); irregular administration of ART (≥10 forgotten doses in the last month); and interruption of ART for more than 1 week. Inclusion criteria for high adherence were: PLHIV who had been on stable ART for more than 1 year with an HIV-VL below 50 copies/mL and without missed visits over the previous 12 months. The Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory was administered to participants. PLHIV with low adherence showed higher scores for all mental disorders compared with those with high adherence. And, in the multivariate binary logistic regression analysis, drug dependence and post-traumatic stress disorder were independently associated with low adherence (Nagelkerke R2 = 0.0686).
