Abstract:
Objective :To systematically evaluate the adherence to antiretroviral therapy among HIV/AIDS patients in China, so as to provided evidence-based insights into improving the efficacy of antiretroviral therapy.
Methods:Publications pertaining to the adherence to antiretroviral therapy among HIV/AIDS patients in China were retrieved in CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed, and Cochrane Library from 2012 to 2022. A meta-analysis was performed using the software Stata 16.0. Sensitivity analysis was performed with the leave-one-out method, and the publication bias was evaluated using funnel plot and Begg's test.
Results:A total of 1 171 publications were screened, and 33 publications were included in the final analysis, which covered 11 218 subjects in 19 study areas and included 18 high-quality publications and 15 medium-quality publications. Meta-analysis showed that the pooled adherence to antiretroviral therapy was 86.57% (95%CI: 86.01%-87.12%, P<0.05) among HIV/AIDS patients, and subgroup analysis showed high adherence among HIV/AIDS patients in eastern China (92.13%, 95%CI: 91.45%-92.82%). Sensitivity analysis showed the robustness of the meta-analysis results, and no publication bias was detected as revealed by the funnel plot and Begg's test (P>0.05).
Conclusions:The adherence to antiretroviral therapy is 86.01% to 87.12% among HIV/AIDS patients in China. Intensified health education and follow-up management is required among HIV/AIDS patients in China.
