Abbreviations: 3TC, lamivudine; ABC, abacavir; ART, antiretroviral therapy; ATV/r, atazanavir/ritonavir; BMI, body mass index; DRV/r, darunavir/ritonavir; EFV, efavirenz; FTC, emtricitabine; HIV, human immunodeficiency virus; NA, not applicable; NUC, nucleos(t)ide analogue; RAL, raltegravir; TDF, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.

aClinical trial, ART regimen, and age used in sampling design to enforce balance by these factors; therefore, no hypothesis testing performed.

bNUCS included TDF/FTC, or ABC/3TC (only with EFV or ATV/r).
