Time to death predictors of HIV/AIDS infected patients on antiretroviral therapy in Ethiopia

Abstract: ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to identify the major risk factors, which contributed to shortened survival time to death of HIV patients on antiretroviral therapy. Six-hundred HIV patients were included from two hospitals and six health centers record from January 2003 to December 2017. Kaplan–Meier and Cox proportional hazard model were implemented.ResultsFrom the Kaplan–Meier, log-rank test result indicated that there was a significant difference between tuberculosis comorbidity (P = .000), occupatio… Show more

“…The risk of survival time to death on patients for those who had developed HIV/TB (yes) patients was more risk than those had not developed HIV/TB (No) patients when controlling other independent variables. These results conformed to the studies conducted [6,12]. This shows that, the main known risk factor for mortality in HIV/AIDS patients are TB development.…”

“…That means, Patient's baseline CD4+ count significantly impact on his or her survival time. This study was agreed with a study [6,12]. The progression change of √ 4 count on patients for those who had developed HIV/TB (yes) patients was less than those had not developed HIV/TB (No) patients when controlling other independent variables.…”

“…So, a better knowledge of determinant factors would allow closer follow-up and more targeted interventions for HIV infected patients, thus reduce excess mortality, alter morbidity and improve quality of life (9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19).…”
