This was a prospective observational study aiming to evaluate dynamic changes of lipid metabolism in people living HIV who treated with different antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens. At the same time, cardiovascular risk and the incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease are assessed so as to compare the effects of different regimen on cardiovascular risk and NAFLD and hope to discover several cardiovascular risk-related individual lipid species.
