Mann–Whitney test was used to compare levels of Hb, PLT, ALT and AST. Where IQR = interquartile range. Association analyses of infection type with hepatotoxicity, liver fibrosis CKD or HIV stages were done using Pearson’s Chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test. A two-tailed p-value was considered significant at p < 0.05
