For researchers submitting trial data to ClinicalTrials.gov, the Adverse Events module is one of four mandatory results sections. It requires reporting in three primary categories: All-Cause Mortality: A table tracking all deaths that occurred during the study, regardless of cause. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): A tabular summary of events resulting in death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization, or significant disability. Other Adverse Events: A table for non-serious events that exceed a specific frequency threshold, such as 5% within any study arm.
Adverse Events Module path is as follows:
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Event Groups
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Serious Events
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Other Events

Traditional Healer Support Program: Traditional Healers will provide the "traditional healer support program" assistance, as previously described, to all newly diagnosed patients. Standard of Care: First-line ART will consist of two nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) plus a non-nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)- TDF + 3TC (or FTC) + EFV as a fixed-dose combination to be taken twice a day for the rest of the patient's life), clinic-based counseling, and community searches if lost to follow up. | 15 | None | 0 | 150 | 0 | 150 | View |
