Author summary Why was this study done? Clinical and programmatic outcomes among HIV-exposed infants are poorly documented, with gaps in information on receipt of antiretrovirals by infants and their mothers, early infant diagnosis and definitive diagnostic testing, anthropometric and developmental measures, and susceptibilities to mortality and loss to follow-up (LTFU). Previous evidence from both observational studies and clinical trials is largely limited to single-program or single-country reports with small sample sizes, lack of mother–infant linkages, or restricted geographical or temporal breadth. What did the researchers do and find? Pooling data from the International epidemiology Databases to Evaluate AIDS consortium (sub-Saharan Africa and Brazil) and the Umoyo+ project (Malawi) to create the largest global dataset of HIV-exposed infants to date, our study features >82,000 HIV-exposed infants, with >90% linked to maternal records, born over a 25-year period
