The latest global big data evidence indicated the changes of skin and venereal disease burden was huge. HIV/AIDS disease burden was the heaviest diseases among all skin and venereal diseases, and its skin manifestation was serious. The evidence of skin manifestation was searched and classified by subjects such as clinical symptoms, diagnosis & treatment, nursing, etc. The results showed, that the skin manifestation of HIV/AIDS with high incidence was serious, atypical, difficult to cure which was easy to misdiagnose or miss diagnosis. After analyzing the global HIV/AIDS guidelines, we found that many high quality guidelines with widely-covered subjects were produced by developed countries, while quite a few low quality and ones with narrowly-covered subjects were produced by developing countries. Only one guideline was for treatment of HIV/AIDS skin lesion. Based on the current evidence, we call for that all healthcare professionals to increase their awareness, update knowledge, and joint in cooperative prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS. We also call for that we should produce high quality primary evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment of HIV/AIDS skin manifestation, and clinical practice guidelines based on good evidence. For the increasing heavy burden of skin and venereal diseases, we should adjust and expand research directions, enrich and improve new interdisciplinary knowledge. We also should constantly train professionals and spread out knowledge in public on prevention and treatment for skin manifestation, so as to transform the evidence in time, effectively protect medical staff and susceptible population, effectively prevent and treat this disease, and improve the satisfaction of our country, hospitals and patients.
