Loss to Follow-Up as a Competing Risk in an Observational Study of HIV-1 Incidence
(2013)
OBJECTIVE:
Conventional survival estimates may be biased if loss to follow-up (LTF) is associated with the outcome of interest. Our goal was to assess whether the association between sexual risk behavior and HIV-1 ...
HIV-1 Superinfection Occurs Less Frequently Than Initial Infection in a Cohort of High-Risk Kenyan Women.
