Abstract

Gastroenteritis syndrome in HIV-infected patients remains a critical concern worldwide. Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders in this population can be caused by a broad range of opportunistic pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and fungi, often leading to severe, chronic, and life-threatening complications. Despite significant advancements in antiretroviral therapy (ART), morbidity and mortality associated with GI opportunistic infections (OIs) continue to pose substantial challenges, especially in resource-limited settings. Effective diagnosis, treatment, and prevention strategies are paramount for improving the quality of life and clinical outcomes in HIV-infected individuals.
