ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES: to analyze intellectual productions on self-inflicted violence and suicide in people living with HIV/AIDS. METHODS: a systematic review, carried out between March and April 2021, in the PubMed®/MEDLINE®, Web of Science and LILACS databases, subsidized in the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology. The period outlined was from 2011 to 2020. RESULTS: a total of 199 studies were identified, and 16 composed the final sample, grouped into the categories: Sociodemographic characteristics of victims of self-inflicted violence/suicide and their intervening factors (pointing to young adults, especially homosexuals, with low social support and a history of mental illness or substance abuse as usual victims); Successful measures for suicide prevention/control in people living with HIV/AIDS (suggesting more frequent psychosocial and clinical follow-up of those starting antiretroviral and immunocompromised treatment). CONCLUSIONS: biopsychosocial follow-up, analysis of sociodemographic profile and intervening factors should be frequent in this population for disease prevention/control.

RESUMEN Objetivos: analizar las producciones intelectuales sobre la violencia autoinfligida y el suicidio en personas viviendo con VIH/SIDA. Métodos: revisión sistemática, realizada entre marzo y abril de 2021, utilizando las bases de datos PubMed®/MEDLINE®, Web of Science y LILACS, apoyada en el instrumento Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology. El período planteado fue del 2011 al 2020. Resultados: se identificaron 199 estudios, de los cuales 16 conformaron la muestra final, siendo agrupados en las categorías: Características sociodemográficas de las víctimas de violencia autoinfligida/suicidio y sus factores intervinientes (señalando adultos jóvenes, especialmente homosexuales, con bajo apoyo social y antecedentes de enfermedad mental o abuso de sustancias como víctimas habituales); Medidas exitosas para la prevención/control del suicidio en personas que viven con VIH/SIDA (lo que sugiere un seguimiento psicosocial y clínico más frecuente para quienes comienzan el tratamiento antirretroviral y las personas inmunodeprimidas). Conclusiones: el seguimiento biopsicosocial, el análisis del perfil sociodemográfico y los factores intervinientes deben ser frecuentes en esta población, para la prevención/control de la enfermedad.
RESUMO Objetivos: analisar as produções intelectuais sobre a violência autoprovocada e suicídio em pessoas que vivem com HIV/AIDS. Métodos: revisão sistemática, realizada entre março e abril de 2021, nas bases PubMed®/MEDLINE®, Web of Science e LILACS, subsidiada no instrumento Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology. O período delineado foi de 2011 a 2020. Resultados: identificaram-se 199 estudos, e 16 compuseram a amostra final, sendo agrupados nas categorias: Características sociodemográficas das vítimas de violência autoprovocada/suicídio e seus fatores intervenientes (apontando adultos jovens, especialmente homossexuais, com baixo suporte social e histórico de doenças mentais ou abuso de substâncias como as vítimas usuais); Medidas exitosas para prevenção/controle de suicídio em pessoas vivendo com HIV/AIDS (sugerindo acompanhamento psicossocial e clínico mais frequente daqueles em início de tratamento antirretroviral e imunodeprimidos). Conclusões: acompanhamento biopsicossocial, análise do perfil sociodemográfico e dos fatores intervenientes devem ser frequentes nesta população, para prevenção/controle do agravo.
