‡A total of n=7146 and n=5295 were screened for hepatitis C (HCV) in MMP and NHANES, respectively. HCV positivity was defined as having a documented positive anti-HCV enzyme immunoassay or strip immunoblot assay RIBA, HCV genotype, or HCV RNA through reverse transcriptase–PCR (RT–PCR).
ART, antiretroviral therapy; BMI, body mass index; MMP, Medical Monitoring Project; NHANES, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
