    <dct:description>&lt;p&gt;Background: Malnutrition and HIV/AIDS are highly prevalent in Sub-Saharan Africa and they&lt;br&gt; are linked in a vicious cycle. Intestinal parasite co-infection worsens the effect of malnutrition&lt;br&gt; among HIV patients. However, the magnitude of malnutrition and its associated factors among&lt;br&gt; People Living with HIV/AIDS are not well understood at Butajira in particular and in Ethiopia in&lt;br&gt; general.&lt;br&gt; Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of malnutrition and its associated&lt;br&gt; factors among Adult People Living with HIV/AIDS receiving ART.&lt;br&gt; Methods: Institution based cross-sectional study was conducted and systematic random&lt;br&gt; sampling technique was used to select study subjects. A total of 305 study subjects were enrolled&lt;br&gt; in the study. Structured and pre-tested questionnaire were used to collect socio-demographic,&lt;br&gt; clinical and nutritional related data. From each sampled patient, anthropometric and laboratory&lt;br&gt; data were collected. Both bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to&lt;br&gt; assess the effect of the various factors on the level of malnutrition. P value &amp;le; 0.05 at 95% CI was&lt;br&gt; considered statistically significant.&lt;br&gt; Results: The overall prevalence of malnutrition was 25.2% (95% CI: 20.0% &amp;ndash; 30.2%), of which&lt;br&gt; 49(63.6%), 19(24.7%), 9(11.7%) were mildly, moderately and severely malnourished,&lt;br&gt; respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that living in rural area&lt;br&gt; (AOR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.10, 3.53), anemia (AOR=1.94, 95% CI: 1.05, 3.57), eating difficulty&lt;br&gt; (AOR= 2.69, 95% CI: 1.41, 5.11), using Ready to Use Therapeutic Food (AOR= 0.18, 95% CI:&lt;br&gt; 0.08, 0.40), and intestinal parasitic co-infection (AOR=2.85, 95% CI: 1.54, 5.27) were&lt;br&gt; significantly associated with malnutrition&lt;/p&gt;</dct:description>
