The Gap in Integrated Pediatric Care: A Systematic Review of Family-Based Weight Management for Children Living with HIV

Future research must prioritize integrating care models using implementation science frameworks (RE-AIM/CFIR) to bridge the gap between primary HIV care and obesity management in resource-constrained settings.
