We using Cox proportional hazards regression to examine the independent associations between MMT taking days and the HAART adherence; MMT adherence.
Our finding is engagement in MMT was positively associated with HAART adherence (b=0.006, 95% CI: 1.001-1.010, p<.05), but negatively associated with MMT adherence (b=-0.33, 95% CI: 9.57-.978, p<.001).
