Non-HIV-related causes of death in PWA: reasons for concern

  • Smoking prevalence is higher in PWA than

in the general population

  • Abuse of alcohol and injection /

non-injection drug use is prevalent

  • Rates of hepatitis C (a major cause of

hepatocellular carcinoma) are ~80% among IDUs

  • Concern that complications secondary to

HAART increase CVD mortality

Objectives

  • To analyze non-HIV-related mortality

rates in the post-HAART period (1999- 2003) in NYC:

– overall, in specific subgroups, and for specific causes

  • To identify PWA at greatest risk of a

non-HIV-related death

  • To identify preventable non-HIV-

related illnesses that should be priorities for providers of health-care to PWA

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Population

  • NYC residents 13+ years old

– diagnosed w ith AIDS through 2003 – reported to DOHMH as of 9/30/04 – died 1999-2003 according to

  • match w ith the NYC Vital Statistics

Registry, or

  • field surveillance
slide-13
SLIDE 13

Coding cause of death: A primer

  • Death certificate may include up to

20 contributing or multiple causes

  • Nosologist assigns ICD code to each

contributing cause of death

  • All information on the DC used to

arrive at an underlying cause of death

  • Since 1999, ICD-10 scheme used to

code cause of death

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Source of cause of death

  • NYC Vital Statistics Registry,

1999-2003

  • Match w ith the

National Death Index (NDI), 1999 only

slide-15
SLIDE 15

Classification of HIV-related causes

  • ICD-10 codes for HIV-related deaths:

B20-B24

  • Based on ICD-10 rules, some

OI deaths are not initially coded as HIV-related, because HIV is not listed

  • n the death certifcate
  • Selik proposed expanded criteria to

include all CDC AIDS-defining conditions, if HIV status is know n

– HIV-related deaths ~4% – Our number is greater than w hat Vital Statistics reports

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Classification of non-HIV-related causes

  • Criterion:

Any other know n underlying cause of death

  • Categorized into major subgroups
  • Cause of death unknow n for only

183/11,388 total deaths (1.6%)

Analysis

  • Average mortality rates per 10,000

PWA (1999-2003), age-standardized to NYC population

– Overall and by sociodemographic factors – For non-HIV-related causes overall and specific causes

  • Multinomial logistic regression to

determine predictors of death from non-HIV-related causes

– Compared to living w ith AIDS – Independent variables: age, race, sex, transmission risk, borough

Conclusions

  • HIV-related causes continue to

dominate mortality among PWA in NYC

  • How ever, the proportion of deaths due

to non-HIV-related causes has increased and accounted for 26% of all PWA deaths in 2003

  • The risk of non-HIV-related deaths is

significantly higher among IDU, and varies significantly by age and borough

slide-31
SLIDE 31

Conclusions

  • Cardiovascular disease, cancer

and substance abuse account for ~75% of non-HIV-related deaths –Specific causes generally consistent by race, sex, risk

slide-32
SLIDE 32

Recommendations for Health Care Providers to PWA

  • Major causes of death are

amenable to prevention or intervention

– Screening for cancers, including prostate, prostate and colon – Providing support for lifestyle changes, e.g., nicotine patch, buprenorphine

  • Take Care New York priority areas

apply equally to PWA

slide-33
SLIDE 33

“Health care for people w ho are HIV-infected should shift from an [exclusive] focus on preventing HIV-related morbidity and mortality to include behaviors and conditions that are increasingly accounting for mortality.”

Primary Care Guidelines for the Management of Persons Infected w ith HIV, Recommendations of the HIV Medicine Association of the IDSA, 2004

slide-34
SLIDE 34

Limitations

  • Classification of cause of death not

validated by chart review

  • Substance abuse definition may have

missed some related deaths

  • Deaths occurring outside NYC (~6%)

are not ascertained

  • Small numbers for subgroup analyses

and trends for specific causes

  • Regression model did not include

laboratory values for CD4 count or viral load

slide-35
SLIDE 35

Next Steps

  • Further analyses w ithin subgroups

defined by geography and risk

  • Comparison to causes of death

among all NYC residents not know n to be HIV+

  • Comparable analysis of deaths

among people w ith HIV (not AIDS)

  • Analysis of economic impact of non-

HIV-related mortality using years of potential life lost (YPLL)
