Background:
The purpose was to study factors associated with the survival of HIV-1 patients receiving antiretroviral therapy in Morocco.
Material And Method:
This was a retrospective study of a cohort of 182 HIV-1 patients receiving antiretroviral therapy in the department of dermatology venereology at the Military Instruction Hospital Mohamed V in Rabat during the period from 1 January 2006 to 1 January 2017. Death of any cause during the study period was considered to be the result of HIV infection. The log-rank test was used to compare the survival curves based on determinants. The Cox regression model analyzed the determinants of survival since induction of antiretroviral therapy.
Results:
The median follow-up time was 4.7 years (IQR: 1.97-8.18). The mortality rate was 75 deaths per 1000 person-years. Advanced clinical stage CDC C (RR: 2.72; CI 95%: 1.33-5.56) and treatment with indinavir (RR: 1.41; CI 95%: 0.77-2.59) were significantly associated with death.
Conclusion:
Initiation of antiretroviral therapy in the early stage of the disease and use of less toxic molecules are recommended to reduce mortality.

Left truncation occurs when individuals who experienced the event of interest before a certain time are not included in the study. This is often due to a "delayed entry" into the study where only those who survive until a certain entry point are...
