Beta-coefficients (95% confidence intervals (CI)) for associations with QTVI reported from mixed-effects linear regression models (similar to model B and C except for HIV serostatus) conducted among HIV+ subgroup.

*

Of 589 HIV+ men, 79 were missing at least one clinical variable used for adjustment and were excluded.
