Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To know the literature on the prevalence of overweight and obesity in individuals living with HIV/AIDS. METHOD: This is an integrative review using the databases VHL, SciELO, LILACS, Science Direct, Cochrane Library and MEDLINE/PubMed according to the instrument conceived by Pompeo, Rossi and Galvão, using the descriptors in DeCS "overweight", "obesity", "hiv". Publications were selected between 2012 and 2020 in English, Portuguese and Spanish, with HIV positive individuals. Inconclusive studies were excluded. RESULTS: Initially, 3029 studies were found, of which 18 met the inclusion criteria. There is a strong characteristic of weight gain at a high rate of sedentary lifestyle, a high prevalence of overweight women, with low schooling and age ranging from 38 to 50 years, black race, single, low income and with low schooling still used illicit drugs. These characteristics are present in more than 60% of patients with the clinical factor studied. CONCLUSION: The introduction of antiretroviral drugs in hiv treatment has led to an increase in the prevalence of overweight and obesity among HIV/AIDS patients.
