Table 1 and Table 2: Summary results in PLWH and without HIV

Table 1: People Living With HIV (PLWH)

This table summarizes the number and proportion of people living with HIV who reside within defined catchment areas of:

  • Active transplant centers
  • HIV R+ transplant centers
  • HOPE Act D+ centers

Catchment areas are defined by:

  • 50-mile radius
  • 60-minute driving time
  • 100-mile radius
  • 200-mile radius

Results are shown for 2017 and 2022.

Table 2: Individuals Without HIV

This table presents the same catchment analysis for individuals without HIV.

It allows direct comparison of geographic access between:

  • PLWH
  • Individuals without HIV

Figures

Figures are grouped into three sections.

Compare PLWH and non-HIV

These figures compare geographic access between PLWH and individuals without HIV within each catchment definition.

Each panel corresponds to a distance-based definition:

  • 50 miles
  • 60 minutes
  • 100 miles
  • 200 miles

These figures highlight disparities in access by HIV status.

Compare PLWH Between Years

These figures evaluate changes in geographic access among PLWH between 2017 and 2022.

For each catchment definition, results are shown for:

  • Active centers
  • HIV R+ centers
  • HOPE Act D+ centers

This section highlights temporal changes in transplant center availability.

Beeswarm Plots

Beeswarm plots display the distribution of catchment-level population proportions across centers.

Each point represents a transplant center, with the distribution shown for each distance definition.

These plots illustrate variability in geographic access across centers rather than only aggregate proportions.
