Differential improvement in survival among patients with AIDS after the introduction of HAART

Substantial improvements in survival after the introduction of HAART were found for all PWA but varied by specific ADIs and the degree of immunosuppression, and was marked during the late HAART period across all HIV transmission categories, including intravenous drug use.

Trends of Mortality and Cause of Death among HIV-Infected Patients in Korea, 1990-2011

Despite of significant improvement of survival, there was still a high risk of early death in patients presenting in HAART era, mainly due to late human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) diagnosis and late presentation to care.

Mortality in the Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy Era: Changing Causes of Death and Disease in the HIV Outpatient Study

Although overall death rates remained low through 2004, the proportion of deaths attributable to non- AIDS diseases increased and prominently included hepatic, cardiovascular, and pulmonary diseases, as well as non-AIDS malignancies.

The changing incidence of AIDS events in patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy.

Although the incidence of all AIDS-defining events decreased substantially after starting HAART, the pattern of decline was most pronounced for events with a viral etiology, suggesting that changes in these markers did not fully explain the changes in incidence seen.

Regional Differences in AIDS and Non-AIDS Related Mortality in HIV-Positive Individuals across Europe and Argentina: The EuroSIDA Study

There are significant differences in the rate of all-cause mortality among HIV-positive individuals across different regions of Europe and Argentina and these findings are important for understanding and reviewing HIV treatment strategies and policies across the European region.

Improved survival of persons with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy in Taiwan.

It is suggested that the survival of persons in the late stage of HIV infection in Taiwan continued to improve in the early-HAART era and in theLate HAART era.

HIV in Denmark and Greenland, 1995–2004, the effect of highly active antiretroviral therapy and characteristics of the HIV-infected population: an observational study

The aims of this thesis were to examine temporal trends in deaths, new infections, and individual patients characteristics among the Danish HIV-infected population, and to estimate acquisition of antiretroviral drug-resistant virus over time.

Regional differences in AIDS and non-AIDS related mortality in HIV-positive individuals across Europe and Argentina Reekie,

There are significant differences in the rate of all-cause mortality among HIV-positive individuals across different regions of Europe and Argentina, and Individuals in Eastern Europe had an increased risk of mortality from AIDS related causes and individuals in North Europe had the highest rate of non-AIDS related mortality.

Continued improvement in survival among HIV-infected individuals with newer forms of highly active antiretroviral therapy

A significant and progressive decrease in mortality and increase in life expectancy were observed over the 12-year study period and were directly associated with the use of modern forms of HAART.

Changes in the cause of death among HIV positive subjects across Europe: results from the EuroSIDA study

The proportion of pre-AIDS deaths increased from 1994 to 2001; however, the incidence of pre -AIDS deaths and deaths overall declined; therefore, it is essential to continue to monitor all causes of mortality to identify changes.

The hypothesis was that the virologic response to HAART would be substantially worse among unselected patients in an inner-city clinic than among patients enrolled in clinical trials, and this study analyzed data from a cohort of protease inhibitor-naive patients in whom HAART was initiated in the clinic between March 1996 and February 1998.
