- *P-values from Chi-squared test for categorical and binary characteristics, and Kruskal-Willis test for continuous characteristics. Undetectable HIV RNA results were assigned a value of half the limit of detection for the purposes of assessing trends across time.
- †Median (Interquartile Range) presented for continuous characteristics.
- ‡The number of years of follow-up within the time interval contributed by ART-experienced patients and the percentage of all follow-up within the time interval that was contributed be ART-experienced patients.
- BLD: below limit of detection (<50 copies/mL); ART: antiretroviral therapy; MSM: men who have sex with men; IDU: injection drug user.
