Overview

Cross-sectional study shows household structures affect quality of life in people living with HIV, revealing urban-rural disparities.

Key Points

  • Quality of life among PLWH living alone is higher than those in larger households in China.
  • In rural areas, an increase in household size significantly decreases quality of life, with a β of –3.89.
  • The study employed multivariable linear regression to assess quality of life in a sample of 711 PLWH across nine provinces.
  • Findings suggest the need for healthcare providers to consider household environment when supporting people living with HIV.
