This single-centre substudy of a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial aimed to determine the effect of 96 weeks of rosuvastatin on pulse wave velocity (PWV) in men (n = 55, 54 years) with HIV at moderate cardiovascular risk (Framingham risk score 10-15%). PWV increased in both rosuvastatin [0.54 m/s standard error of difference (SED) 0.26] and placebo [0.50 m/s (SED 0.26), P = 0.896] arms, leading to no difference in PWV at week 96 [rosuvastatin 9.40 m/s (SE 0.31); placebo 9.21 m/s (SE0.31), P = 0.676].
