One-way sensitivity analysis. The diagram shows the sensitivity of ICER to hypothesis ranges of characteristics of the HIV vaccine. The numbers at each end of the bars indicate the most extreme values used in the sensitivity analysis. ICER: incremental cost-effectiveness ratio; THB: Thai baht as of 2009 value; and QALY: quality adjusted life year.

*Percentage of risk behavior changes (0%-30%) due to vaccination (i.e. decreasing condom usage and increasing habit of needle sharing among injecting drug users)

† The study assumed that each boosted revaccination required a full course and the revaccination was needed to maintain protection over a 30-year period.
