Etiology of clinical proctitis among men who have sex with men.
Abstract
In this retrospective review of cases of clinical proctitis, we identified the frequency of common sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) among men who have sex with men on the basis of reports from the municipal STD clinic in San Francisco. Of note, gonorrhea and chlamydia were the most common STDs, followed by herpes and syphilis. Current STD treatment guidelines recommend empiric treatment for gonorrhea and chlamydia, but treatment for herpes should also be considered. The implications for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission are also discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
