InterVA versus Spectrum
BACKGROUND: The Spectrum computer package is used to generate national AIDS mortality estimates in settings where vital registration systems are lacking. Similarly, InterVA-4 (the latest version of the InterVA programme) is used to estimate cause-of-mortality data in countries where cause-specific mortality data are not available. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to compare trends in adult AIDS-related mortality estimated by Spectrum with trends from t…
