Background A number of metabolic abnormalities, such as dysglycaemia, insulin resistance, lipodystrophy and dyslipidaemia, are associated with the use of antiretroviral drugs. We aimed to assess the effects of long-term antiretroviral exposure on blood pressure, glycaemia, insulin secretion and anthropometric measures in black South African women.
