Notes: Bold indicates statistically significant difference between groups. The middle columns show the number (%) or mean (SD) of HIV/STI risk variables for women in each of the three possible levels of the alcohol misuse variable. The right columns show the number (%) or mean (SD) of HIV/STI risk variables for women in each of the two possible levels of the depressive symptoms variable.
