de Castro JAC, de Lima TR, Silva DAS. Health-Related Physical Fitness Evaluation in HIV-Diagnosed Children and Adolescents: A Scoping Review. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2024; 21:541. [PMID: 38791753 PMCID: PMC11121308 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph21050541] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2024] [Revised: 04/14/2024] [Accepted: 04/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Health-related physical fitness has been widely used to investigate the adverse effects of HIV infection/ART in children and adolescents. However, methods/protocols and cut-points applied for investigating health-related physical fitness are not clear. The aim of this scoping review was to map the literature to identify gaps in knowledge regarding the methods/protocols and cut-points. METHODS A scoping review, following the Joana Briggs Institute (JBI) guidelines, was conducted through ten major databases. Search followed the PCC strategy to construct block of terms related to population (children and adolescents), concept (health-related physical fitness components) and context (HIV infection). RESULTS The search resulted in 7545 studies. After duplicate removal, titles and abstracts reading and full text assessment, 246 studies were included in the scoping review. Body composition was the most investigated component (n = 244), followed by muscular strength/endurance (n = 23), cardiorespiratory fitness (n = 15) and flexibility (n = 4). The World Health Organization growth curves, and nationals' surveys were the most reference values applied to classify body composition (n = 149), followed by internal cut-points (n = 30) and cut-points developed through small populations (n = 16). Cardiorespiratory fitness was classified through cut-points from three different assessment batteries, as well as cut-points developed through studies with small populations, muscular strength/endurance and flexibility were classified through the same cut-points from five different assessment batteries. CONCLUSIONS The research on muscular strength/endurance, cardiorespiratory fitness and flexibility has been scarcely explored. The lack of studies that investigated method usability as well as reference values was evidenced.

Assessing bone mineral density in children and adolescents living with HIV and on treatment with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate: a systematic review. REVISTA PAULISTA DE PEDIATRIA : ORGAO OFICIAL DA SOCIEDADE DE PEDIATRIA DE SAO PAULO 2023; 42:e2023042. [PMID: 37971172 PMCID: PMC10637732 DOI: 10.1590/1984-0462/2024/42/2023042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate on bone mineral density and bone mineral content in children and adolescents infected with the human immunodeficiency virus. DATA SOURCE The search procedure was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Statement. The search was carried out until April 2022 in Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (Medline), Embase, Cochrane Central, Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature, Web of Science, Scopus, and MedRxiv. The combination of terms used was: (Children OR Youth OR Teenagers) AND HIV AND (Tenofovir OR "Antiretroviral therapy") AND ("Bone density" OR Osteoporosis OR Osteopenia). The protocol was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO, CRD42022312851). DATA SYNTHESIS The initial searches resulted in 1156 papers. After the exclusion of duplicate studies, three blinded reviewers analyzed the title and abstract of 563 papers, of which 57 remained to be read in full. Only nine papers met the eligibility criteria and were included in descriptive and risk-of-bias analyses. Regarding study design, four were cross-sectional, three were longitudinal before-after studies without a control group, and two were prospective cohorts. Among these nine papers, seven showed no significant association between tenofovir disoproxil fumarate use and reduced bone mass in young people. However, these papers did not have high methodological quality. CONCLUSIONS Although most of the selected papers found no harmful effect of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate on bone mass, further primary research with higher methodological quality is needed so robust scientific evidences can be obtained.

Effect of HIV infection on growth and bone density in peripubertal children in the era of antiretroviral therapy: a cross-sectional study in Zimbabwe. THE LANCET CHILD & ADOLESCENT HEALTH 2021; 5:569-581. [PMID: 34139202 PMCID: PMC8295041 DOI: 10.1016/s2352-4642(21)00133-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2021] [Revised: 04/16/2021] [Accepted: 04/21/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
Background Faltered linear growth and pubertal delay, which are both common in children with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa, might affect adolescent bone accrual and future fragility fracture risk. We investigated the association of HIV with bone density adjusted for skeletal size in peripubertal children in Zimbabwe. Methods We did a cross-sectional study of baseline data from the IMVASK cohort, which enrolled children aged 8–16 years with HIV who had been taking antiretroviral therapy (ART) for at least 2 years, and children of the same age without HIV. Children with HIV were recruited from public sector HIV clinics at Parirenyatwa General Hospital and Harare Central Hospital (Harare, Zimbabwe), and children without HIV were recruited from six schools in the same suburbs that the hospitals serve. Sociodemographic, clinical, and anthropometric data were collected. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to measure the bone outcomes of total-body less-head bone mineral content for lean mass adjusted for height (TBLH-BMCLBM), and lumbar spine bone mineral apparent density (LS-BMAD), and we assessed the prevalence of low TBLH-BMCLBM and low LS-BMAD (defined by Z-scores of less than −2·0). Size adjustment techniques were used to overcome the size dependence of DXA measurement. We used linear regression models, with multiple imputation for missing data, to assess relationships between risk factors and TBLH-BMCLBM and LS-BMAD Z-scores in children with and without HIV. Findings We recruited 303 children with HIV (mean age 12·4 years [SD 2·5]; 151 [50%] girls) and 306 children without HIV (mean age 12·5 years [SD 2·5]; 155 [51%] girls). In children with HIV, median age of HIV diagnosis was 3·0 years (IQR 1·2–5·8), and median ART duration was 8·1 years (6·2–9·5); for 102 (34%) children, ART included tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). Children with HIV had a higher prevalence of low TBLH-BMCLBM Z-score than children without HIV (29 [10%] of 279 children with available data vs 18 [6%] of 292 with available data; p=0·066) and a higher prevalence of low LS-BMAD Z-score (40 [14%] of 279 vs 17 [6%] of 293 with available data; p=0·0007). HIV and male sex were associated with earlier pubertal (Tanner) stage. The negative associations between HIV and Z-scores for TBLH-BMCLBM and LS-BMAD were more pronounced with pubertal maturation, particularly in girls. Among children with HIV, TDF exposure and orphanhood were associated with lower TBLH-BMCLBM Z-score in confounder-adjusted analysis. Current TDF use (vs non-TDF-based ART) was associated with a reduction in TBLH-BMCLBM Z-score of 0·41 (95% CI 0·08–0·74; p=0·015) and in LS-BMAD Z-score of 0·31 (0·08–0·69; p=0·12). Interpretation Despite ART, HIV is associated with substantial skeletal deficits towards the end of puberty. The extent of bone deficits associated with TDF and its widespread use in children in sub-Saharan Africa are a concern for future adult fracture risk. Funding Wellcome Trust.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Worldwide, children who acquired human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) at an early age, either perinatally or through blood transfusion, are reaching adolescence and adulthood due to successful antiretroviral treatment (ART). While many are thriving, a significant proportion face unprecedented multilevel challenges that can affect their long-term outcomes. Specifically, longstanding and poorly controlled HIV resulting from inadequate early regimens and nonadherence, along with the toxicities of some ART agents, can predispose them to sequelae including HIV-associated complications and other comorbidities. AREAS COVERED This paper reviews and summarizes the unique issues facing adolescents and young adults with early acquired HIV (AYA-EAHIV), including ART challenges, emerging comorbidities, and complications, including mental health comorbidities, secondary prevention, and transition from pediatric/adolescent to adult care. EXPERT OPINION AYA-EAHIV are a special population that have lived their entire lives with the physical and psychological toll of HIV mandating targeted and purposeful approaches to optimize their management and outcomes. Multifaceted inclusive and context-specific approaches focusing on heightened research, risk reduction interventions, and 'outside the box' thinking will be required to optimize treatment and reduce morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In the era of modern bone-friendly antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens for people living with HIV (PLWH), this review discusses the research gaps and management concerns that remain for individuals who have already been exposed to ART with negative effects on bone metabolism, especially children and adolescents who have not acquired peak bone mass, and older adults who have additional risk factors for fracture. RECENT FINDINGS Data now support the use of avoidance of TDF and use of bone-friendly regimens that include integrase strand transfer inhibitors in PLWH with increased risk of fracture for either ART initiation or switch. Despite significant advances in our understanding of ART choice for PLWH with regard to bone health, additional diagnostic tests to determine fracture risk and management strategies beyond ART choice are necessary, especially in vulnerable PLWH populations, such as children and adolescents and older adults.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The scale-up of antiretroviral therapy (ART) across sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) has reduced mortality so that increasing numbers of children with HIV (CWH) are surviving to adolescence. However, they experience a range of morbidities due to chronic HIV infection and its treatment. Impaired linear growth (stunting) is a common manifestation, affecting up to 50% of children. However, the effect of HIV on bone and muscle development during adolescent growth is not well characterised. Given the close link between pubertal timing and musculoskeletal development, any impairments in adolescence are likely to impact on future adult musculoskeletal health. We hypothesise that bone and muscle mass accrual in CWH is reduced, putting them at risk of reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and muscle function and increasing fracture risk. This study aims to determine the impact of HIV on BMD and muscle function in peripubertal children on ART in Zimbabwe. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Children with (n=300) and without HIV (n=300), aged 8-16 years, established on ART, will be recruited into a frequency-matched prospective cohort study and compared. Musculoskeletal assessments including dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, peripheral quantitative computed tomography, grip strength and standing long jump will be conducted at baseline and after 1 year. Linear regression will be used to estimate mean size-adjusted bone density and Z-scores by HIV status (ie, total-body less-head bone mineral content for lean mass adjusted for height and lumbar spine bone mineral apparent density. The prevalence of low size-adjusted BMD (ie, Z-scores <-2) will also be determined. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethical approval for this study has been granted by the Medical Research Council of Zimbabwe and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Ethics Committee. Baseline and longitudinal analyses will be published in peer-reviewed journals and disseminated to research communities.

Abstract
Both HIV infection and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) treatment adversely impact bone metabolism and may lead to osteopenia, which has critical implications for youth with HIV (YWH). This study evaluates changes in the biomarkers of bone metabolism and inflammation among YWH receiving initial treatment with TDF- and non-TDF-containing antiretroviral therapies (ARTs). YWH [n = 23, median age 21 years (range 18-24), 87% male, 61% African American] were assessed for inflammatory and bone metabolism biomarkers at enrollment, after 48 weeks of TDF-containing ART, and 96 weeks of ART without TDF with continued viral suppression. Spearman's rank correlation evaluated biomarker associations. Bone alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, and osteopontin increased after TDF treatment. All fell after TDF was discontinued. Levels of RANKL and osteoprotegerin did not change throughout the study. There was little correlation between biomarkers of bone metabolism and either macrophage or lymphocyte activation at any time point. Our results establish baseline associations between bone metabolism and immune biomarkers for this population, and find that before CD4 T cell decline chronic inflammation does not perturb biomarkers of bone metabolism among YWH. The adverse effects of TDF on bone health may be marginal for YWH at the early stages of disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Perinatally HIV-infected adolescents may be at increased risk of noninfectious comorbidities later in life. This review summarizes recent advances in the understanding of noncommunicable diseases (NCD) among HIV-infected adolescents in high-income and lower middle-income countries, and identifies key questions that remain unanswered. We review atherosclerotic vascular disease (AVD), chronic bone disease (CBD), chronic kidney disease (CKD), and chronic lung disease (CLD). RECENT FINDINGS Persistent immune activation and inflammation underlie the pathogenesis of AVD, highlighting the importance of treatment adherence and maintenance of viral suppression, and the need to evaluate interventions to decrease risk. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and trials of vitamin D supplementation have been the focus of recent studies of CBD with limited studies to date evaluating tenofovir alafenamide as an alternative to TDF for decreasing risk for bone and renal adverse effects among HIV-infected adolescents. Recent studies of CKD have focused primarily on estimating prevalence in different settings whereas studies of CLD are limited. SUMMARY As perinatally HIV-infected children age into adolescence and adulthood with effective long-term ART, it is necessary to continue to evaluate their risks for noninfectious comorbidities and complications, understand mechanisms underlying their risks, and identify and evaluate interventions specifically in this population.
