* The numerator is the number of persons who ever had a given opportunistic illness (OI); the denominator is the number of persons who died with one or more acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defining OIs during 1992-1997. These data are standardized to national AIDS deaths by age, race, country of birth, sex, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) exposure mode. Data for all cities are weighted equally.

+ A CDC-sponsored surveillance project that collects data at selected sites in 11 U. S. cities.

& -- The direction of change is given for trends that were significant (p<0.05) based on the stratified (HIV exposure mode, race, sex, age, metropolitan area, and country of birth) Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel statistic.

@ -- Restricted to women.
