ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how common advanced HIV disease and poor nutrition are among people living with HIV at Assiut University Hospital. The goal is to understand how often these issues occur and what factors might be linked to them. Researchers want to find out if newly diagnosed patients or those who have not been following their treatment are experiencing these problems.

If you or someone you know has recently been diagnosed with HIV or has been diagnosed before but hasn't been consistent with their treatment, you might be eligible to participate. However, those who are currently following their treatment plan or choose not to take part in the study will not be included. Participants will be asked questions about their health and nutritional habits to help gather important information. This study can provide valuable insights that may improve care for people living with HIV in the future.
