  1. Results are presented as number (%) unless stated otherwise. aPatients were matched for age, gender and race and compared with HIV-positive patients. bDemographics and mortality data are given for the first ICU admission during the study period; readmissions were not included, resulting in analysis from 22 HIV-positive patients, 931 HIV-negative unmatched and 82 HIV-negative matched patients. cART combination antiretroviral therapy, COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, ICU intensive care unit, IQR interquartile range, SD standard deviation, SOFA Sequential Organ Failure Assessment
