    <p>S<sub>1</sub>, no adjustment; S<sub>2</sub>, model with adjustment for selection bias exerted by seeking early testing after a suspected exposure; S<sub>3</sub>, model with adjustment for seeking medical attention due to symptoms of acute HIV infection.

    <p>Panels on top labeled “All” show the data for all patients, lower panels show the data per risk category (MSM, men who have sex with men; HET, heterosexual transmission; IDU, intravenous drug use; UNK, unknown transmission pathway). In all panels, the blue curve with the circle symbols denotes the annual number of HIV notifications, and the black curve without symbols shows the estimated number of incident infections (means and their 95% confidence intervals). The top panels also show the results obtained with the 10 individual algorithms (grey lines in the background).</p

    1<p>Due to the relative low CCR5delta32 allele frequency (8.6%), data are presented for the dominant mode of inheritance.</p>2<p>The number patients carrying 0, 1 or 2 copies of CCR5delta32 were 1073, 202 and 15 for patients with chronic infection and 143, 16 and 1 for spontaneous clearers. The associations were also tested by using the additive (OR = 0.61, 95% CI 0.38–1.00, P = 0.05) and recessive (OR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.07–4.07, P = 0.5) modes of inheritance. The association was similar albeit less significant when patients with positive HIV serology were removed (OR = 0.63, 95% CI 0.36–1.08, P = 0.09).</p><p>Association of CCR5delta32 with different HCV-related endpoints.</p
