Résumé

We assessed the temporal impact of food insecurity on 12-month antiretroviral (ART) adherence, retention in care, hospitalization, and HIV viremia (> 1000 copies/mL) in ART naïve adults presenting for HIV testing in Umlazi, South Africa. At the time of HIV testing and prior to ART initiation, we determined each participants' food security status using the validated Household Food Insecurity Access Scale (HFIAS). Following HIV testing and ART initiation, we then assessed the above outcomes of each study participant at 3-month intervals for a total of 12 months. Among 2,383 participants with HIV in this study, 253 (10.6%) experienced food insecurity. We found that food insecurity is associated with 20% higher adjusted prevalence odd ratios (aPOR) of having HIV viremia (> 1000 copies/mL) at 12 months following initial diagnosis (aPOR 1.2, 95% CI 1.1-1.4). We found no significant differences in ART adherence, retention in care, and hospitalization occurrences between the food secure and food insecure cohorts.
