简要总结
Osteoporosis is a condition that describes compromised skeletal microarchitecture in general, with clinical signs of decreased bone mineral density. Patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection are at increased risk for developing osteoporosis. Identifying whether patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection have information and awareness about this disease is crucial. This study is aimed to investigate awareness and knowledge of osteoporosis in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection.
详细描述
Osteoporosis is a common disease of bone loss. The reduced bone strength predisposes an increased risk for fractures in older individuals. It can affect people from different ethnicity. Many factors increase the risk of osteoporosis, including age, postmenopausal state, glucocorticoid use, low body weight, calcium, vitamin D, immobility, and chronic inflammation. Patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection are at high risk of developing osteoporosis due to chronic inflammation and their medications. Patients' knowledge and awareness about osteoporosis are essential for early detection, implementation of lifestyle changes, and treatment compliance. This study aimed to investigate osteoporosis awareness and knowledge about osteoporosis in patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection.

结局指标
主要结局
Revised Osteoporosis Knowledge Test
时间窗: 1 day
The 32-item Revised Osteoporosis Knowledge Test (ROKT; 2012), as reported by Gendler et al. (2015), is a revision of the original 24-item OKT developed by Kim, Horan, \& Gendler (1991). This measure was developed to assess the osteoporosis knowledge of adults. Changes were made to update the original OKT to include current recommendations for calcium and vitamin D, exercise requirements, diagnosis and treatment, and a more comprehensive understanding of bone development and osteoporosis risk factors. It contains two subscales (Nutrition and Exercise), which share 14 common items including risk factors and general knowledge. Although the responses offered to participants are multiple choice (e.g., for risk items: more likely, less likely, neutral, don't know), there is only one correct answer for each item. Responses are dichotomously recoded as correct or incorrect.
