OBJECTIVE: To compare mortality of wasting syndrome (WS) versus Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) in AIDS patients reported in Puerto Rico after controlling for gender, age, and CD4 levels.
METHODS: AIDS patients for which a diagnosis of WS (n = 1,180) or PCP (n = 765), who were reported to the AIDS Surveillance System of Puerto Rico between 1989 and 1992, were used to analyze the mortality risk among these diagnoses using a Cox's proportional hazard regression model.
RESULTS: Cox model showed that WS patients had a 14% to 33% reduction in mortality risk compared with PCP patients after adjusting for gender and age (95% confidence level). Mortality risks for males were 18% (95% CI: 1%, 39%) higher than females risk after adjusting for AIDS defining condition and age. It was shown that a decrease in 100 CD4 cells increased the mortality by 37% (95% CI: 16%, 62%) after adjusting for AIDS defining conditions, gender, and age.
