Exercise study for older adults with HIV

This study looks at how a structured exercise program affects the heart and blood flow in people living with HIV. It may help your care team understand who benefits most from exercise and how to do it safely.
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.
This study tests an “adaptive” exercise plan that adjusts over time to help improve aerobic fitness and your body’s fitness response in people with mild memory problems or early Alzheimer’s. It may help you safely build the kind of fitness that supports brain health, while researchers monitor changes with fitness testing and blood work.
This six-week exercise program helps older adults with mild memory or thinking problems and trouble walking stay independent and safe at home. You will work with a trainer and wear an activity tracker to track your progress.
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.
