Reported by Jules Levin
from Jules: you will note in these 2 slides immediately below lung & liver cancer predominate & breast caver for women; and colorectal cancer. In Risk Factors slide just below having low CD4 increase risk, risk was greater for anyone with <500 CD4 & risk increases with lower CD4 counts to 9.3 times increased risk for people with <200 CD4s; 200-350 associated with 5.8 increased risk, and 350-499 with 2.8 times increased risk. ; unsuppressed viral load increases risk; females at greater risk compared to men. NOW, this report does not distinguish cancer rates for certain cancers between different times, so are cancer rates from 2010 to 2015 different than from 2001 to 2010.
