Facilitators and Barriers to Physical Activity in Middle-Aged and Older Adults with HIV

9 qualitative studies from a systematic review of four databases covering 2000 to 2024, identifying 71 facilitators and 59 barriers to physical activity. The review was conducted by Yali Zhou following ENTREQ guidelines and registered as CRD42024498010. The findings are synthesized into two main themes and seven sub-themes.

Use Cases

• Identify key intervention points for promoting physical activity based on the synthesized facilitators and barriers.
• Inform the design of patient-centered health programs based on qualitative evidence from the target population.
• Support meta-synthesis research on health behaviors in chronic disease populations based on the categorized themes.

Strengths

• Systematic methodology following ENTREQ guidelines for qualitative synthesis.
• Quantifies findings with 71 facilitators and 59 barriers extracted from 9 studies.
• Clear temporal coverage from January 2000 to December 2024.

Limitations

• Dataset is a 16.0 KB DOCX file, indicating a very small, text-only summary rather than raw qualitative data.
• Row count and column-level documentation are absent; the file's structure and data granularity are unknown.
• The data may reflect publication bias inherent to the systematic review's inclusion criteria and source databases.
