| Abstract | Background The availability and accessibility of effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) for people living with HIV (PLWH) has substantially improved in the past two decades in resource-limited settings. Therefore, evaluation of survival is needed in the current setting. Method We retrospectively analyzed secondary data of the national AIDS program database from national health security region number 4 among PLWH who were ART-naive between January 2014 and December 2018. All PLWH were followed until December 2019 to evaluate their survival status and possible risk factors related to death. Results A total of 42,229 PLWH were identified, of which 14,053 were ART-naive and thus enrolled in the study. Sixty-seven percent were male, the mean ± SD age was 35 ± 12 years, and the median (IQR) baseline CD4 count was 162 (44–353) cells/mm3. Regarding medical care benefits, 46% had a universal health coverage scheme, 34% had a national social security scheme, and 2% had a civil servants medical benefit scheme. A total of 2142 (15%) mortalities occurred during the total follow-up period of 28,254 patient-years. The mortality rate was 7.5 (95% CI 7.2–7.9) per 100 person-years. Survival rates at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years after HIV registration were 88.2% (95% CI 87.6–88.7%), 85.3% (95% CI 84.6–85.9%), 82.9% (95% CI 81.9–83.4%), 81.3% (95% CI 80.5–82.0%) and 75.1% (95% CI 73.5–76.8%), respectively. The Cox proportional hazards model showed that all-cause mortality was associated with a history of ART switching (HR = 7.06, 95% CI 4.53–11.00), major opportunistic infections during ART (HR = 1.93, 95% CI 1.35–2.77), baseline CD4 count ≤ 200 vs. > 500 cells/mm3 (HR = 4.00, 95% CI 1.45–11.11), age ≥ 50 vs. < 30 years (HR = 1.77, 95% CI 1.12–2.78), and receiving nevirapine-based regimens(HR = 1.43, 95% CI 1.04–1.97). Conclusions This study demonstrated the substantial mortality rate over the consecutive 5 years of the follow-up period among PLWH who received ART in a resource-limited setting. Early case finding and prompt initiation of ART as well as continuous HIV care are a cornerstone to improve survival. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
