The effect of socioeconomic disadvantage on strategies to end the AIDS epidemic
2016, The Lancet Public HealthLarger is not necessarily better! Impact of HIV care unit characteristics on virological success: results from the French national representative ANRS-VESPA2 study
2016, Health PolicyCitation Excerpt :In other words, individual and structural characteristics associated with the death of PLWH may also be associated with characteristics determining their virological success. It has been demonstrated that poor socioeconomic characteristics in PLWH are strongly associated with poor clinical outcomes [49] and consequently with low survival rates [50,51]. Second, given that the recruitment of participants was performed directly in care units, the information collected in the ANRS-VESPA2 survey is not representative of all PLWH, such as those undiagnosed and others falling outside the scope of the survey, as follows: PLWH diagnosed <6 months before the survey; PLWH diagnosed at least 6 months before the survey, but untreated; and, PLWH diagnosed at least 6 months before the survey, either treated in unit cares whose caseload included fewer than 100 patients or treated by practitioners outside unit cares [26].

2008, Annals of EpidemiologyCitation Excerpt :Differences in age, sex, transmission category, and race/ethnicity among HIV-infected persons are well documented (2). Before the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), which has increased survival time for HIV-infected persons (3–5), the results of mortality and survival studies were inconclusive as to whether survival differed by socioeconomic status (SES) (6–9). However, since 1996, when HAART became widely available in industrialized nations, shorter survival after a diagnosis of HIV infection has been linked to lower SES, measured by neighborhood level indices (10), household income (11), and median income by ZIP code/postal code (12, 13).
Educational attainment and response to HAART during initial therapy for HIV-1 infection
2007, Journal of Psychosomatic ResearchCitation Excerpt :There also have been reports of a social gradient in the length of survival among persons infected with HIV. Some researchers have shown that individuals from lower socioeconomic backgrounds display a faster HIV progression to AIDS morbidity and AIDS-related mortality [15–19]; however, others have found no significant differences [20,21]. In most studies, socioeconomic status (SES) is often operationalized as educational attainment (EA), income, or occupation [22].
