Table 4. Interaction between HIV and intensive care unit admission on in-hospital death among 907 persons with candidemia, adjusted for potential confounders, South Africa, 2012–2017*.
| Variable | Stratum-specific aOR for death (95% CI) | Wald test p value† |
|---|---|---|
| Admitted to ICU | ||
| HIV-seronegative | Referent | |
| HIV-seropositive |
1.56 (1.00–2.43) |
0.05 |
| Not admitted to ICU | ||
| HIV-seronegative | Referent | |
| HIV-seropositive | 2.27 (1.47–3.52) | <0.001 |
*aOR, adjusted odds ratio; ICU, intensive care unit. †Overall likelihood ratio test for interaction p value = 0.22. Case-fatality ratio for those admitted to an ICU: HIV-seropositive (94/152; 62%), HIV-seronegative (157/301; 52%) versus those not admitted to an ICU: HIV-seropositive (117/224; 52%), HIV-seronegative (76/230; 33%).
