aWeight loss/gain includes any weight change;

b≥10% WG: yes = ≥10% WG, no = ≥–5% to <10% weight change; ≥10% WL: yes = ≥–10%, no = <–10% to <5% weight change;

call individual comedications were classified as to whether they had an effect on WG, WL or none; drug classes of comedications with a known WG effect included: insulin, antidepressants, psychotropic agents, antiepileptics, antipsychotics, contraceptives, corticosteroids, antihistamines, beta‐androgenic blockers, anti‐gout preparation;

dall comedications were classified as to whether they had an effect on WG, WL or none; drug classes of comedications with a known WL effect included: antidepressants, antiepileptics, corticosteroids, beta‐androgenic blockers;

eCD4 <350 μL and/or CDC stage A3, B3 or any C stage (EU definition).
