Lung Function in Men with and without HIV

Research on lung function in individuals with and without HIV aims to understand respiratory health disparities and guide treatment strategies for HIV-positive individuals.

Research on lung function in men with and without HIV aims to understand respiratory health disparities. Studies suggest HIV-positive individuals are more prone to chronic lung disorders like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Early findings indicate spirometry and diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) variations in HIV-positive individuals compared to HIV-negative controls. Comprehensive investigations evaluate the impact of HIV infection on lung function and respiratory outcomes. Understanding these associations is crucial for tailored management strategies and improving respiratory health in HIV-positive individuals.
