abstract: 'HIV-infected people with low socioeconomic status (SES) and people who
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
are members of a racial or ethnic minority have been found to receive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
fewer services, including treatment with Highly Active Antiretroviral
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Therapy (HAART), than others. We examined whether these groups also have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
worse survival than others and the degree to which service use and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
antiretroviral medications explain these disparities in a prospective
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cohort study of a national probability sample of 2,864 adults receiving
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
HIV care. The independent variables were wealth (net accumulated
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
financial assets), annual income, educational attainment, employment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
status (currently working or not working), race/ethnicity, insurance
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
status, use of services, and use of medications at baseline. The main
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outcome variable was death between January 1996 and December 2000. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysis was descriptive and multivariate adjusted Cox proportional
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hazards regression analysis of survival.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By December 2000, 20\% (13\% from HIV, 7\% non-HIV causes) of the sample
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
had died. Those with no accumulated financial assets had an 89\% greater
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
risk of death (RR= 1.89, 95\% CI= 1.15-3.13) and those with less than a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
high school education had a 53\% greater risk of death (RR= 1.53, 95\%
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CI= 1.15-2.04) than their counterparts, after adjusting for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sociodemographic and clinical variables only. Further adjusting for use
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of services and antiretroviral treatment diminished, but did not
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
eliminate, the elevated relative risk of death for those with low SES by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
three of the four measures. The finding of markedly elevated relative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
risks of death for those with HIV infection and low SES is of particular
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
concern given the disproportionate rates of HIV infection in these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
groups. Effective interventions are needed to improve outcomes for low
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SES groups with HIV infection.'
