Spatial and Temporal Trends in HIV/AIDS Burden Among Worldwide Regions From 1990 to 2019: A Secondary Analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

HIV/AIDS is a critical public health concern worldwide. This article investigated the spatial and temporal trends in HIV/AIDS burden from 1990 to 2019.

Methods

Data were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) Study 2019. The estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) and the age-standardized rate (ASR) were used to quantify the change in trends at the global, regional, and national levels.

Results

In terms of temporal trends, during the period 1990-2004, increasing trends in prevalence (EAPC = 7.47, 95% confidence interval [CI] 5.84, 9.12), death (EAPC = 10.85, 95% CI 8.90-12.84), and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) (EAPC = 10.40, 95% CI 8.47-12.36) of HIV/AIDS were observed. During the period 2005-2019, the global trends in HIV/AIDS incidence
