NOTE. Models #1-5 depict multivariate logistic regression analyses with the indicated covariates for the outcome of HIV serostatus. For example, model 1 contains gender and HCV/HBV status whereas model 4 also includes CCL3L1 copy number. Although gender did not associate with HIV serostatus in univariate analyses (Table 2), it was included in the model to remain consistent with the models shown in Table 4.

Years was categorized as a continuous variable in full-years, and data reflects an increase in OR with each additional year of IV drug use.
