Health centres versus hospitals: adjusted outcomes by gender (hospitals are the reference)

	Overall	Male	Female
Retention	1.10 (0.94–1.28)	1.53 (1.20–1.96)	0.89 (0.73–1.09)
No follow-up	0.62 (0.39–0.98)	0.67 (0.31–1.43)	0.60 (0.34–1.07)
Mortality	0.98 (0.80–1.19)	0.79 (0.59–1.06)	1.19 (0.91–1.57)
LTFU	0.98 (0.82–1.18)	0.68 (0.51–0.93)	1.21 (0.95–1.51)

The estimates are ORs for retention and no FUP, and sub-distribution hazard ratios from competing risk regression for mortality and LTFU. Analyses are adjusted for age, baseline CD4 cell count, clinical WHO stage, type of NNRTI and catchment area. LTFU: Lost to follow-up.
