The ORs represent risk of AIDS-NHL associated with one unit increase in the log transformed biomarker. ORs are adjusted for age at AIDS-NHL diagnosis in cases or reference date in controls, absolute CD4+ T cell counts from each visit where the biomarkers were measured, loge HIV viral RNA levels at set point, and having an AIDS diagnosis prior to AIDS-NHL diagnosis or reference date, and having exposure to HAART prior to AIDS-NHL diagnosis or reference date
