There have been no substantial differences among men and women with serum albumin measurements at baseline and also the trial population (n = 3418) in age, sex, or baseline CD4+ T-cellSerum Albumin and HIV ProgressionWritten informed consent was obtained from all participants included inside the parent trial. The trial protocol was approved by the institutional assessment boards with the Harvard School of Public Health, Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences, the Tanzania Meals and Drug Authority, and National Institute of Medical Investigation.?JID 2013:207 (1 May possibly)?Figure 1. Restricted cubic spline analysis illustrating the shape of your adjusted partnership amongst continuous serum albumin concentration at antiretroviral therapy initiation and all-cause mortality. The solid line shows the estimated hazard ratio for serum albumin concentrations relative for the reference concentration of 38 g/L, with the horizontal dotted line designating a hazard ratio of 1.0. The 95 self-confidence intervals from the hazard ratio are represented by the dashed lines. Adjusted analyses controlled for sex and baseline age (30, 30?9, 40?9, and 50 years),.
