Abstract
Dick Durevall and Annika Lindskog (January, 2015) explore the association between intimate partner violence (IPV) and HIV infection in Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data.1 We welcome Durevall and Lindskog's examination of the confluence of risk factors that might place women at risk of HIV infection, building from our earlier analysis of an overlapping set of DHS datasets,2 and their careful interpretation of the results they find. However, we believe that Sunita Kishor's interpretation of their study,3 in relation to our earlier study on the same question,2 necessitates some elaboration to ensure an accurate interpretation of this analysis.
