Fig 1.
CDR and SMR trends in HIV/AIDS in the 10- to 79-year-old age group from 1990 to 2016.
The standardized mortality rate (SMR) of the 10- to 79-year-old age group was based on the distribution of males and females in the 2010 census data.
Fig 2.
Age-specific mortality of HIV/AIDS and 95% uncertainty interval (UI) among males (left figure) and females (right figure) aged 10 to 79 years old from 1990 to 2016. Increasing trends were observed in both males and females, but the increase among females was less than that among males.
Fig 3.
Changes in the ratio of HIV/AIDS mortality of males to females.
From 2001 to 2016, the gap between male and female standardized mortality increased significantly.

Age-specific HIV/AIDS mortality risk ratios (RRs) of males compared with females in different years in China.
The gender difference in HIV/AIDS mortality was readily apparent and increased gradually with age.
