Due to small numbers, Australia was combined with Northern Europe, and Eastern Central Europe combined with Eastern Europe.

Hepatitis C (HCV) was defined by use of anti-HCV medication, a positive HCV antibody test, a positive HCV RNA qualitative test, HCV RNA-VL >615 IU/mL, and/or a positive genotype test [25].

Hepatitis B (HBV) was defined by a positive HBV surface antigen and/or HBV RNA-VL >357 IU/mL.

Hypertension was confirmed by use of antihypertensives at any time before regimen start or if the most recent systolic or diastolic blood pressure measurement before regimen start was higher than 140 or 90 mmHg, respectively.

Diabetes was defined by a reported diagnosis, use of antidiabetic medication, glucose ≥11.1 mmol/L, and/or HbA1c ≥6.5% or ≥48 mmol/mol.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) was defined using a composite diagnosis of myocardial infarction, stroke, or invasive cardiovascular procedure.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was confirmed if there were 2 consecutive measurements of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m² measured at least 3 months apart. eGFR was calculated using the CKD-EPI creatinine equation [26].

Dyslipidemia was defined as total cholesterol >239.4 mg/dL or HDL cholesterol <34.7 mg/dL or triglyceride >203.55 mg/dL or use of lipid-lowering treatments [27].

CD4 and CD8 cell counts were taken as the most recent measurements in the 12 months before baseline. If no measurements were taken before baseline, the first measurement within 12 weeks after baseline was used, and CD4 cell nadir was recorded as the same as CD4 cell count at baseline.

Denominator for percentages is all participants with nonmissing data.
