The table shows the statistical significance from Kruskal-Wallis tests of the association of baseline categorical demographic and clinical characteristics and HIV diversity scores. HRM scores were obtained for six regions of the HIV genome (see Methods); analyses were also performed for the mean (MEAN) and median (MED) of all six HRM scores. P values <0.05 are bolded. Abbreviations: ZDV: zidovudine; ARV: antiretroviral; WHO: World Health Organization.
