BMI = body mass index; CI = confidence interval; HIV+ = HIV-infected; HIV- = HIV-uninfected; IDU = injection drug use; IRR = incidence rate ratio; NE = not evaluable.

*

The p-value for an interaction between the given covariate and cohort tests whether the effect of the covariate differs between MACS and WIHS.

**

Not evaluable because no lung cancers were diagnosed in MACS participants younger than 40 years old during the HAART era.

***

The nadir CD4 and HAART experience effects correspond only to HIV-infected participants.
