AGW, anogenital warts; HIV, human immunodeficiency virus; HPV, human papillomavirus; MSM, men who have sex with men; NS, not significant. a Reported for multivariable analyses when available. b There were N = 7 transwomen included in overall cohort of N = 314 subjects, but only N = 267 had anal screening, and since no subgroup analyses were performed, it is unclear if any data in this report were from transwomen. c The study also included Indigenous women, who are not within the scope of this SLR. d The study also included women and heterosexual men, who are not within the scope of this SLR.
