Alcohol use disorder, but not current alcohol use is associated with falls among people with HIV in care
Among PWH, 22% reported falling, which was associated with AUD, but not current alcohol use, suggesting that a mechanism other than acute intoxication could be responsible. Further longitudinal research is warranted to explore mechanisms for why AUD, but not current alcohol use, is associated with falls.
