P-values refer to linear regression analyses used to evaluate potential correlates of 12-month lipid levels.

P-values refer to linear regression analyses used to evaluate potential correlates of the change in lipid level from pre-HAART to 12 months, after adjusting for pre-HAART lipid level; mean change was derived from these models.

HAART indicates highly active antiretroviral therapy; WAZ weight-for-age Z-score; HAZ, height-for-age Z-score; TC, total cholesterol, LDL, low density lipoprotein cholesterol; HDL, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; TG, triglycerides; NVP, nevirapine; and LPV/r, lopinavir-boosted ritonavir.
