Abstract: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) affects the cells of the immune system, mainly CD4 T lymphocytes and generates alteration of the intestinal microbiota leading to bacterial translocation and a state of persistent systemic inflammation. Studies have shown that probiotics can increase CD4 T lymphocyte counts, reducing HIV progression and decreasing systemic inflammatory and bacterial translocation markers. This review was conducted to find out the effect of probiotic supplementation in HIV-infected individuals on CD4 T-cell counts, systemic markers of inflammation and bacterial translocation. A search for systematic reviews, meta-analyses and randomized controlled trials (RCT¿s) from 2015 to 2021 was conducted in the Academic Search complete, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Pubmed, Medline, Virtual Health Library and Scopus databases. The search strategy identified 271 studies and after screening 4 systematic reviews, 2 of them with meta-analysis, and 5 RCT¿s were included in the review. Studies have shown that probiotic supplementation can decrease systemic markers of inflammation, increase CD4 T-lymphocyte count and reduce bacterial translocation, however more studies are needed to confirm these results.
