This study is the first known analysis of T-use and QTc interval in MLWH. Overall, our data demonstrate that recent T-use is associated with a shorter QTc interval. Increased T-use duration above a threshold of ≥ 50% of visits in the preceding 5 years was associated with a shorter QTc interval while lesser T-use duration was not.
