title: Lifetime and age-conditional risk of human immunodeficiency virus diagnosis, Missouri, 1998-2007.
abstract: Lifetime and age-conditional probabilities of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) diagnosis risk in Missouri were assessed using cross-sectional HIV diagnosis and mortality rates. An increased lifetime risk of HIV diagnosis was associated with males, blacks, and persons residing in metropolitan areas. The estimates emphasize the disparity in risk by race/ethnicity and area of residence.
