ORs and RRs with 95% CIs adjusted for HIV, age, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, and socioeconomic status. Associations between the five psychosocial syndemic risks were tested using bivariate logistic regression. The association between psychosocial syndemic risks and physical health conditions was tested using Poisson regression.

p < 0.10, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.

Adj. OR, adjusted odds ratio; Adj. RR, adjusted risk ratio; CI, confidence interval.
