[Review] Understanding and managing disordered sleep in people with HIV

People with HIV experience higher burden of cardiometabolic, mood, and cognitive disorders. Poor-quality and insufficient sleep are both associated with increased risk for these comorbidities and are more common in people with HIV. Although previous reviews have explored the prevalence and risk factors for sleep complaints in people with HIV, few have differentiated these complaints by potential underlying causes. Disordered sleep in people with HIV might arise from HIV-specific sleep disruptors, including direct effects of the virus, chronic inflammation, and antiretroviral treatment.
