from Jules: Note in this table the cancer incidences in HIV+ vs HIV-negatives control group, particularly in general those cancers that are smoking-related & virological show much higher rates of cancer in HIV+ while in most but not all cancers the rates among HIV+ are similar among the ŇotherÓ group to HIV-negative control group.
CI: confidence interval, aIRR: adjusted incidence rate ratio, PAF: population attributable fraction. 1IRR estimated using Poisson regression analyses adjusted for gender, age and year of study inclusion. 2+3Calculated using the formula: PAF = Pe*(RRe-1)/(1+Pe*(RRe-1)), where Pe is the proportion of time with exposure and RRe is the adjusted relative risk of cancer among exposed compared to unexposed. 2Exposed: HIV-infected individuals, unexposed: population controls. The RRe is calculated as the weighted average of ever-smoking HIV-infected individuals versus ever-smoking controls and never-smoking HIV-infected individuals versus never-smoking controls. 3Exposed: ever-smoking HIV-infected individuals, unexposed: never-smoking HIV-infected individuals.
