Depression and Adherence to Antiretroviral Therapy in Low-, Middle- and High-Income Countries: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Open accessAbstract
We investigated the associations between depressive symptoms and adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) among people living with HIV (PLHIV). We searched the PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane CENTRAL databases for studies that reported an association between depression and adherence to ART as a primary or secondary outcome. We used a random-effect model to pool the risk estimates from the individual studies. The odds ratio (OR) with their 95 % CIs were used as summary estimates. Of 2861 citations, 111 studies that recruited 42,366 PLHIV met our inclusion criteria. When reported, the rate of PLHIV with depressive symptoms ranged from 12.8 to 78 % and the proportion of PLHIV who achieved good adherence (≥ 80 %) ranged from 20 to 98 %. There were no significant differences in rate of depressive symptoms in PLHIV by country income group; however, the proportion of PLHIV who achieved good adherence was significantly higher in lower-income countries (as defined in the 2012 World Bank Country Income Groups) (pooled rate=86 %) compared to higher-income countries (pooled rate=67.5 %; p< .05). We found that the likelihood of achieving good ART adherence was 42 % lower among those with depressive symptoms compared to those without (pooled OR=0.58, 95 % CI 0.55 to 0.62). The relationship between depressive symptoms and adherence to ART was consistent across the country's income group, study design and adherence rates. We found that the magnitude of the association significantly decreases with more recent publications and increasing study sample size. The higher the prevalence of depressive symptoms of PLHIV recruited in the studies, the lower the likelihood of achieving good adherence to ART. In conclusion, the likelihood of achieving good adherence was lower among those with depressive symptoms compared to those without.

HIV-related stigma can compromise health behaviours such as adherence to antiretroviral therapy among people living with HIV.
“PLWH also experience HIV-related stigma which exacerbates mental health problems (Levi-Minzi & Surratt, 2014) and can compromise health behaviours such as adherence to life-saving antiretroviral therapy (ART) (Remien et al., 2019; Uthman et al., 2014).”
From Resilience resources for mental health among people living with HIV: a mixed-method systematic review (2024) · cites this paper as Uthman et al., 2014
The Introduction reports that depressive symptoms can disrupt ART adherence among people living with HIV, and the Results report lower adherence among those with depressive symptoms. The paper does not establish the attributed link between HIV-related stigma and adherence; a search for “stigma” found no passage addressing it. (LLM, conf=0.78)

“PLWH also experience HIV-related stigma which exacerbates mental health problems (Levi-Minzi & Surratt, 2014) and can compromise health behaviours such as adherence to life-saving antiretroviral therapy (ART) (Remien et al., 2019; Uthman et al., 2014).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
