Could Circumcision of HIV-Positive Males Benefit Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision Programs in Africa? Mathematical Modeling Analysis

PLOS ONE, 2017
The epidemiological and programmatic implications of inclusivity of HIV-positive males in voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) programs are uncertain. We modeled these implications using Zambia as an illustrative example.We used the Age-Structured Mathematical (ASM) model to evaluate, over an intermediate horizon (2010-2025), the effectiveness ...

Applying Anthropology to Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting

American Anthropologist, Volume 128, Issue 1, Page 195-205, March 2026.
ABSTRACT In this article, we review how anthropologies from various subdisciplines, from social to evolutionary anthropology, are contributing to our understanding of female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C). We focus on four key questions: What are the origins of FGM/C? What functions and meanings are linked to FGM/C?

Scaling-up voluntary medical male circumcision – what have we learned?

HIV/AIDS - Research and Palliative Care, 2014
In 2007, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the joint United Nations agency program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) recommended voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) as an add-on strategy for HIV prevention. Fourteen priority countries were tasked with scaling-up VMMC services to 80% of HIV-negative men aged 15-49 years by 2016, representing a combined ...

The sensory penis: A comprehensive immunohistological and ontogenetic exploration of human penile innervation

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 661-701, March 2026.
Abstract Background Penile sexual sensation relies on intricate neural structures that remain incompletely characterized. Immunohistological insights into their development and organization can enhance understanding of penile neuroanatomy and function, while optimizing surgical outcomes.

The Cost of Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision in South Africa

PLOS ONE, 2016
Given compelling evidence associating voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) with men's reduced HIV acquisition through heterosexual intercourse, South Africa in 2010 began scaling up VMMC. To project the resources needed to complete 4.3 million circumcisions between 2010 and 2016, we (1) estimated the unit cost to provide VMMC; (2) assessed cost ...
