  1. Displayed are the hazard ratios, 95% confidence intervals and p values. The analyses are stratified by treatment era and medical treatment facility.
  2. HAART - Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy; VL - Viral load; CD4 - CD4 count; ARV - Antiretroviral; AA - African American; EA - European American, STI - Sexually Transmitted Infection; Hgb - Hemoglobin; bold = p < 0.05
  3. aHazard Ratio of patients able to achieve CD4 cell increase of at least 50% from the baseline CD4 count
  4. bAdditional categories examined but not displayed: for ethnicity, other vs EA; for rank, others vs officer; for regimen, neither vs PI and both vs PI
