Standardized risk curves for all-cause mortality for 7,944 CNICS
patients, for selected viral load threshold values of k,
stratified by viral load category, averaged over 100 imputations. Standardized
estimates controlled for age, sex, race/ethnicity, male-to-male sexual contact,
injection drug use, smoking, at-risk alcohol use, pre-ART viral load, year of
ART initiation, ART regimen, CD4 count, clinical AIDS status, status of other
clinical conditions (chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, past diagnosis of
any cancer excluding nonmelanoma skin cancer), statin use, and study site. Solid
line represents viral loads <20 copies/mL, dot-dashed line represents
viral loads between 20 and k copies/mL, dashed line represents
viral loads between k and 999 copies/mL, dotted line represents
viral loads >999 copies/mL. A. k = 20 copies/mL; B.
k = 130 copies/mL; C. k = 200 copies/mL;
D. k = 400 copies/mL.
