“…37 The association between smoking and anal HSIL was previously well-documented. 27 , 33 However, in our study no association was observed between smoking and anal HSIL among men living with HIV (p > 0.05). A recent study using data from the ANC reported a significant association between current smoking and anal HSIL after adjusting by age, sexual risk group, HIV status, lifetime number of sexual partners, and anal HR-HPV infection.…”

“…However, studies have reported that sexually transmitted infections (STIs) such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea increased the risk of anal squamous intraepithelial lesions 28 and anal cancer. 33 Moreover, McCloskey et al reported that the seropositivity for HIV, HSV-2, T. pallidum , HBV, and HCV and history of gonorrhoea or chlamydia exert a powerful amplifying factor increasing the risk of anal HSIL above the risk of HR-HPV infection alone in both HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients. 34 While the association of HR-HPV infection and anal HSIL was marginally significant for both men and women living with HIV in our study (p > 0.05), others have reported a significant association between these variables, but when the HPV genotype has been considered, the fraction of anal cancer attributable to HPV-16 is smaller in the HPV-positive population.…”

“…5 Risk factors for SCCA include HIV infection, particularly advanced disease (ie, AIDS), and current smoking. [6][7][8][9][10] HIV-/AIDS-related immunosuppression enhances the carcinogenicity of HPV, causing an elevated SCCA risk. 8 Smoking impairs immune function, prohibiting the ability to clear HPV infection.…”

“…Previous studies provided added evidence to the association between smoking history [17], numbers of sexual partners [18], and contraception methods [19] with HPV infection, and accordingly with reinfection or regression. To rule out these biases, we controlled and subsequently excluded cases with specific identifications before or during the trial.…”
