Abstract

Background with the advent of effective antiretroviral treatment, the life expectancy for people with hiv is now approaching that seen in the general population. Consequently, the relative importance of other traditionally non-aids-related morbidities has increased. We investigated trends over time in all-cause mortality and for specific causes of death in people with hiv from 1999 to 2011.
