From: Prevalence and risk factors for significant liver fibrosis among HIV-monoinfected patients

Risk Factor

Diabetes mellitus

3.15 (1.12, 10.10)

Obesity

0.70 (0.22, 2.24)

  1. ‡ Defined as HIV RNA > 75 copies/mL
  2. * Odds ratios obtained via bootstrap re-sampling with bias-corrected (accelerated) confidence intervals. Each risk factor was adjusted for the other risk factors as well as alcohol use and site.
