Sumario:WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS TOPIC? Antiretroviral therapy (ART) eligibility criteria and treatment regimens were updated in national guidelines. However, whether treatment was timely and followed guidelines was under-assessed. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? Among 22,591 people living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH) who initiated ART in Beijing between 2010 and 2020, the time from diagnosis to initiating ART decreased, the clinical condition of PLWH improved, and ART regimens changed in accordance with guidelines. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE? Over the past decade, improvements in clinical status have been observed among PLWH; however, a proportion of PLWH remain who started ART late. Early linkage to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) care should be further improved.
