dc.description.abstract	It's unclear whether anal cancer screening benefits men who have sex with men because high-quality studies on this subject are lacking. In the absence of high-quality data, anal pap smears aren't recommended for routine screening of men who have sex with men (strength of recommendation: C, expert opinion).	eng
