■营养是生命的必要基础,健康,以及人类在整个生命周期中的发展。缺乏营养知识,不良的营养习惯,HIV阳性成年人的营养不良可能会加速人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)/获得性免疫缺陷综合症(AIDS)和相关疾病的进展。因此,这项研究旨在评估饮食知识,在BuleHora医院参加抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)的HIV阳性成人的实践和相关因素,西古吉区,南奥罗米亚,埃塞俄比亚。
■通过系统抽样技术对418名HIV阳性成年人进行了横断面机构研究。使用半结构化问卷进行数据收集,并使用SPSS版本21.0进行分析。使用Logistic回归分析来识别与使用调整比值比(AOR)的因变量相关的因素,95%CI(置信区间)p<0.05。
■这项研究的结果表明,在(HIV)阳性的成年人中,不良的营养知识和不良的营养习惯的患病率分别为74.9%和69.1%,分别。在多变量分析中,成年年龄(AOR=2.37,95%CI:1.30,4.32),婚姻状况(AOR=2.46,95%CI:1.29,4,69),文化程度(AOR=1.83,95%CI:1.01,3.30)和职业状况(AOR=0.55,95%CI:0.25,0.94)与营养知识显著相关。教育水平(AOR=2.58,95%CI:1.48,4.50),月收入(AOR=2.80,95%CI:1.68,4.69),和成人职业状态(AOR=0.48,95%CI:0.26,0.89)也与饮食实践水平显着相关。
■得出的结论是,与其他国家调查结果相比,BuleHora市的受访者的营养知识和实践较差。与营养知识和实践相关的确定因素是教育水平,月收入,成人职业,以及研究区域受访者的婚姻状况。因此,每个相关机构应解决研究区域艾滋病毒阳性成人营养知识和实践方面的上述差距。
UNASSIGNED: Nutrition is the necessary basis for life, health, and human development over the entire lifespan. Poor nutritional knowledge, poor nutritional practices, and malnutrition among HIV-positive adults can contribute to accelerating the progression of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and related diseases. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the dietary knowledge, practices and associated factors of HIV-positive adults participating in antiretroviral therapy (ART) at Bule Hora Hospital, West Guji Zone, South Oromia, Ethiopia.
UNASSIGNED: A cross-sectional institutional study was conducted among 418 HIV-positive adults by systematic sampling technique. Semi-structured questionnaires were used for data collection and analyzed with SPSS version 21.0. Logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with dependent variables using adjusted odds ratio (AOR), with 95% CI (confidence interval) at p < 0.05.
UNASSIGNED: The result of this study showed that the prevalence of poor nutritional knowledge and poor nutritional practices among (HIV) positive adults was 74.9 and 69.1%, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, adult age (AOR = 2.37, 95% CI: 1.30, 4.32), marital status (AOR = 2.46, 95% CI: 1.29, 4, 69), educational level (AOR = 1.83, 95% CI: 1.01, 3.30) and occupational status (AOR = 0.55, 95% CI: 0.25, 0.94) were significantly associated with the nutritional knowledge. Educational level (AOR = 2.58, 95% CI: 1.48, 4.50), monthly income (AOR = 2.80, 95% CI: 1.68, 4.69), and adult occupational status (AOR = 0.48, 95% CI: 0.26, 0.89) were also significantly associated with the level of dietary practice.
UNASSIGNED: It was concluded that the respondents\' nutritional knowledge and practices in the city of Bule Hora were poor compared to other national findings. The identified factors related to nutritional knowledge and practices were educational level, monthly income, adult occupation, and marital status of respondents in the study area. Therefore, each concerned agency should address the above gaps in nutritional knowledge and practices of HIV-positive adults in the study area.
