Abstract
Author Manuscript
Purpose—Exposure to violence in childhood has been linked to adverse health outcomes. Little is known about the prevalence and relationship of youth and caregiver violence exposure to clinical outcomes among youth with perinatal HIV infection (PHIV). We evaluated associations of youth and caregiver violence exposure with unsuppressed viral load (VL) (HIV RNA>400 copies/ml) and CD4%400 copies/ml, and b) CD4 percentage
