| dc.description.abstract | In the rural expanse of South Africa's Eastern Cape, where healthcare resources are often limited, a silent epidemic is unfolding. People living with HIV (PLWHIV), who have long been the focus of antiretroviral therapy (ART) efforts, are now facing an additional threat: type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A recent study conducted in the OR Tambo district has shed light on the lifestyle determinants contributing to this emerging crisis. | |
