aEstimates from GEE logistic regression, adjusted for median CD4 count at ART initiation. bMean % retained in care at end of each period (December 2012; December 2013; December 2014; December 2015; December 2016; December 2018). cOdds ratio for the linear trend in being retained in care from one month to the next. dImmediate change in odds of being retained at start of interval.
