Engels EA, et al. – Researchers performed this work to assess cancer–attributable mortality among people with treated human immunodeficiency virus infection in North America in view of informing public health efforts.

Deaths due to non-AIDSÂdefining cancers (NADCs) would likely grow in importance as AIDS mortality declines and PWHIV age.
