Treatment advances improved survival rates for HIV-infected individuals, although not always with a good quality of life (QoL). The aim of this study was to assess the QoL of people living with HIV (PLHIV) in the city of Sao Jose, Brazil. A cross-sectional study was performed involving a convenience sample of 85 individuals.
