Alcohol use is common among people infected with HIV and plays an important role in their health outcomes. Because alcohol use complicates HIV infection and contributes to comorbid diseases, it is important for researchers and practitioners to understand these interactions and to integrate alcohol treatment with medical management of long-term HIV infection and associated comorbidity. The Veterans Aging Cohort Study (VACS) is a large, multisite study of the effects of alcohol use on HIV outcomes in the broader context of aging. A multilevel strategy intervention trial is needed to address the many modifiable implications of alcohol consumption among those receiving treatment for HIV.
饮酒在感染艾滋病毒的人群中很常见，并且在他们的健康状况中起着重要作用。由于饮酒会使艾滋病毒感染复杂化并导致合并症，因此研究人员和从业者了解这些相互作用并将酒精治疗与长期艾滋病毒感染及相关合并症的医疗管理相结合非常重要。退伍军人老龄化队列研究（VACS）是一项大型多地点研究，在更广泛的老龄化背景下研究饮酒对艾滋病毒结果的影响。需要进行一项多层次策略干预试验，以解决接受艾滋病毒治疗的人群中饮酒的许多可改变的影响。
