Quality of life and associated factors among people living with HIV in Türkiye: A single‐centre experience
Among virologically suppressed people living with HIV, higher PozQoL scores indicate better HRQoL. In this virologically suppressed cohort, HRQoL was primarily associated with social factors (gender, marital status), psychosocial factors (e.g., depression) and comorbidity burden rather than immunovirological indicators. Routine use of patient-reported outcome measures such as PozQoL can help identify treatable factors-including depression and polypharmacy-and support the integration of mental health and multimorbidity management into person-centred HIV care.
