*

Percentage reflects women with detectable HIV viral load within each category (e.g. black women with detectable viral load/all black women)

**

All numerical cutpoints (age, years of HIV diagnosis and enrollment) are derived from the median value

***

4 women were diagnosed during pregnancy, but were classified as HAART-experienced because they were already on medications prior to enrollment in the WITS.
