  • Current research predominantly features a narrow demographic (white, gay men) and disease stage (symptomatic).
  • The impact of social position on the social support-health relationship in HIV is under-researched.

    • Outlook:

    • Future research should investigate specific aspects of social support and their correlation with various health indicators in people with HIV.
    • Further studies are required to understand how this association evolves across different stages of HIV infection.
    • Investigating the influence of socio-economic and cultural characteristics on the social support-health nexus in HIV is crucial.
