This table shows different opportunistic infections at AHD diagnosis and hospitalization experience, stratified by ART-experienced and newly-diagnosed clients. Participants may have had more than 1 opportunistic infection, ranging from 1 to 6, accounting for the percentage being above 100.
AHD = Advanced HIV disease, OI = opportunistic infections, TB = Tuberculosis.
