Abstract: Persons living with HIV (PLWH) today can survive decades with the disease, making the symptom experience much more relevant to their lifestyle and health outcomes. The goal of the research reported here was to assess the symptom reporting of PLWH in the Unites States (US) in the combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) age of the epidemic. We conducted an anonymous online survey of symptomatic PLWH in the US and asked participants to report the frequency and intensity of 28 frequently occurring symptoms in the past 30 days. The relationship between symptom reporting and demographic factors was investigated using the adaptive least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) method. Fatigue was the most frequently reported symptom in our study population. Those with the lowest income were more likely to report more burdensome symptoms. In comparison to other racial and ethnic groups, Black non-Hispanic participants were significantly more likely to report a lower symptom burden score for fatigue, depression, muscle aches, anxiety, difficulties with memory and concentration. There were no racial/ ethnic differences in the burden of the symptoms related to sleep or neuropathy. Findings from this study present new evidence on the symptom reporting of PLWH in the US. Neuropathy continues to be a pervasive neurological symptom with no difference noted between racial/ ethnic groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
