Chronic gastroduodenal diseases (CGD), including peptic ulcers, chronic gastritis, and gastroduodenitis, are common among people living with HIV. One of the major risk factors associated with these conditions is microelementosis (MTOS), characterized by imbalances in essential trace elements. This study investigates the prevalence and impact of MTOS in the HIV-infected population.\\ Aim. To evaluate the prevalence, severity, and specific biochemical deficiencies associated with MTOS and its potential role as a risk factor for CGD in HIV-infected individuals. Materials and methods. This study involved 507 HIV-infected adults, aged 20–69, residing in Andijan, Uzbekistan. Participants were assessed for levels of key electrolytes, including potassium, calcium, and sodium, using fasting blood samples. Participants were categorized by age and gender to explore demographic variations in MTOS prevalence and severity.Results. The study found high rates of electrolyte deficiencies among participants, with 89.2% experiencing hyponatremia, 72.2% hypokalemia, and 28.8% hypocalcemia. Significant gender-based differences were observed, with HIV-infected women displaying higher prevalence rates of hyponatremia and hypokalemia. The data also indicated a progressive increase in the prevalence of severe MTOS with age (P < 0.05), suggesting an age-related risk for CGD. Conclusion. Microelementosis represents a significant risk factor for CGD in HIV-infected individuals, and this study underscores the need for targeted nutritional support and regular electrolyte monitoring in this population. Preventative strategies, including diet modifications and micronutrient supplementation, may help mitigate CGD progression in HIV-infected patients.
