Facilitators and Barriers to Physical Activity for Older Adults with HIV

A systematic review of 9 qualitative studies identifies 71 facilitators and 59 barriers to physical activity for middle-aged and older adults living with HIV. The meta-aggregative analysis, conducted by Yali Zhou and registered as CRD42024498010, synthesizes findings from literature published between 2000 and 2024.
