Adjusted for age, income<$5000, ≥high school education, cocaine use, heroin use, depression or anxiety, detectable viral load and randomization to hazardous alcohol reduction intervention.
There were not enough women who reported heroin use among women with low perceived stress for proper adjustment; Adjusted for age, income<$5000, ≥high school education, cocaine use, depression or anxiety, detectable viral load, and randomization to hazardous alcohol reduction intervention.
