- aLinkage to care measured within 1 month among 928 patients newly diagnosed with HIV at 20 facilities in Uganda. Logistic regression models used cluster-robust standard errors to account for clustering by health facility. Variables that were statistically significant or borderline significant in univariate models were included in the multivariable models
- bClinical stage data was only available for patients who linked to care; therefore, it was not possible to include this information in the models
