Introducción. El objetivo de la siguiente revisión fue caracterizar la adherencia al tratamiento antirretroviral en pacientes adultos con VIH-SIDA en las dimensiones de grado de adherencia y factores de riesgo. Metodología. La presente revisión de la evidencia se llevó a cabo utilizando varios estudios que se hubieran publicado en los últimos 10 años en cualquier país a nivel mundial; la búsqueda de información se hizo en las bases de datos SciELO, PubMed, LILACS y Dialnet. Resultados. Se identificaron un total de 227 artículos; de los cuales, se excluyeron 211 publicaciones por no cumplir con los criterios de elegibilidad y finalmente los estudios que se incluyeron en esta investigación, fueron 14. Discusión. La falta de adherencia al tratamiento antirretroviral es un problema latente que se puso de manifiesto en la evidencia científica analizada y a partir de los diferentes estudios que fueron recabados, se encontró que más de la mitad de los pacientes si fueron adherentes; mientras que en otros, ocurrió totalmente lo contrario y en relación a los factores de riesgo asociados a la falta de adherencia, se identificaron los siguientes: factores relacionados con el régimen terapéutico (aparición de reacciones adversas; presencia de comorbilidades; mayor tiempo bajo tratamiento), relacionados con el individuo (estrés, depresión, estigma, olvido, consumo de sustancias psicoactivas y alcohol, grado académico, sexo masculino y menor edad) y relacionados con la situación social (falta de apoyo social familiar).
ABSTRACT
Introduction. The objective of the following review was to characterize adherence to antiretroviral treatment in adult patients with HIV-AIDS, in the dimensions of degree of adherence and risk factors. Methodology. This evidence review was carried out using several studies that have been published in the last 10 years in any country worldwide; the information search was carried out in the SciELO, PubMed, LILACS and Dialnet databases. Results. A total of 227 articles were identified; of which, 211 publications were excluded for not meeting the eligibility criteria and finally the studies that were included in this research were 14. Discussion. Lack of adherence to antiretroviral treatment is a latent problem that was highlighted in the scientific evidence analysed and from the different studies that were collected, it was found that more than half of the patients were adherent; while in others, the complete opposite occurred and in relation to the risk factors associated with non-adherence, the following were identified: factors related to the therapeutic regimen (occurrence of adverse reactions; presence of comorbidities; longer time under treatment), factors related to the individual (stress, depression, stigma, forgetfulness, consumption of psychoactive substances and alcohol, academic grade, male sex and younger age) and factors related to the social situation (lack of family social support).

The COVID-19 pandemic has produced unprecedented changes in the lives of many people. Although research has documented associations between concerns related to COVID-19 and poor mental health indicators, fewer studies have focused on positive factors that could help people better cope with this stressful social context. To fill this gap, the present research investigated the trajectories of self-compassion facets in times of dramatic social change. Using a longitudinal research design, we described the trajectories of self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness during the first eight months of the COVID-19 pandemic, in a representative sample of Canadian adults (N = 3617). Relying on a multi-trajectory group-based approach, we identified clusters of individuals following persistently low (4.0%), moderate-low (39.3%), moderate-high (46.7%), and high (10.0%) levels of self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness. Interestingly, we found that compassionate self-responding trajectories were mainly stable over time with minor fluctuations for some groups of individuals, in line with the epidemiological situation. In terms of covariates, we observed that older women were more likely to follow trajectories of high compassionate self-responding, as compared to the other age and gender groups. In terms of mental health indicators, we demonstrated that trajectory groups with high levels of compassionate self-responding were associated with greater life satisfaction, more happiness, better sleep quality, higher sleep quantity, and fewer negative emotions, as compared to lower trajectory groups. The results supported the idea that self-compassion during the COVID-19 pandemic could have favored better mental health indicators and could possibly be promoted as a psychological intervention in the general population.
