Study muscle energy and fatigue in older adults
Part of Immune system & allergy, Infections clinical trials.
This study measures how older adults’ muscles use energy and how easily they tire during activity. It includes both people with HIV (with stable treatment and an undetectable viral load) and people without HIV to better understand differences in fatigue.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether high-intensity exercise can help improve thinking and memory, and build lasting exercise habits, in older adults living with HIV who feel tired and are not very active.
This study looks at frailty (feeling weak, having trouble with daily activities, or losing strength) in people age 50 and older who are living with HIV. It may help researchers understand frailty in HIV and how to better support older adults.
This study looks at how aging affects heart health in people who have HIV. It may help researchers find better ways to prevent or monitor heart problems over time.
This study looks at what makes some people with HIV become “pre-frail” or frail as they get older. It uses questionnaires and other checks to understand challenges to healthy aging and may help improve future support and care.
This trial tests whether high-intensity exercise can improve blood-vessel health and brain function in adults with HIV who are not very active and have thinking/memory problems. If you qualify, you’ll be asked to safely complete exercise and other study assessments.
This study tests a special program to help people living with HIV improve their heart health through activity and healthy habits. If you have early signs of heart trouble and are not currently very active, this support may help you feel better and reduce your risk.
