This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2007 the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) have recommended voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) as an important strategy for the prevention of heterosexually acquired HIV in men in settings where the prevalence of heterosexually transmitted HIV is high. Over 25 million men and adolescent boys in East and Southern Africa have been reached with VMMC services. These new guidelines update earlier WHO recommendations to maximize the HIV prevention impact of safe VMMC services and aim to guide the transition to the sustained provision of interventions with a focus on the health and well-being of both adolescent boys and men.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the world HIV prevalence is generally lower in populations that practice male circumcision than in populations where most men are uncircumcised. This has been observed over the years of the epidemic and has been confirmed by three randomized controlled trials concluded in 2005-2006. The results have led to the conclusion that male circumcision is an effective risk-reduction measure for men and should be used in addition to other known strategies for the prevention of heterosexually acquired infection. This book provides guidance to decision makers on human rights, ethical and legal considerations that need to be addressed before planning to provide male circumcision services within the response to HIV.

Download or read book Preventing HIV Among Young People in Southern and Eastern Africa written by Kaymarlin Govender and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-30 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the current epidemiology of the HIV epidemic among young people in Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA) and examines the efforts to confront and reduce the high level of new HIV infections amongst young people. Taking a multi-dimensional approach to prevention, the contributors discuss the many challenges facing these efforts, in view of the slow progress in curbing the incidence of HIV amongst young people, focusing particularly on the structural and social drivers of HIV. Through an examination of these issues, chapters in this book provide valuable insights on how to mitigate HIV risk among young people and what can be regarded as the catalysts to mounting credible policy and programmatic responses required to achieve epidemic control in the region. The contributors draw on examples from a range of primary and secondary data sources to illustrate promising practices and challenges in HIV prevention, demonstrating links between conceptual approaches to prevention and lessons learnt from implementation projects in the region. Bringing together social scientists and public health experts who are actively engaged in finding effective solutions, the book discusses ‘which interventions works’, ‘why they work’, and the limitations and gaps in our knowledge to curb the pandemic amongst young people. As such it is an important read for researchers focusing on HIV/AIDS and public health.

Book Synopsis Circumcision and the Community by : Ahmad Zaghal
Download or read book Circumcision and the Community written by Ahmad Zaghal and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-05-20 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Male circumcision is one of the oldest and the most common procedures in the world; it is performed for both medical and non-medical reasons. Circumcision is a relatively simple procedure; however, if not done properly, can lead to major complications such as iatrogenic injury of the glans or the urethra. The debate over the advantages of the routine cultural circumcision is still ongoing with a significant dichotomy between the opinions of the experts in the field. The main purpose of this book is to present a discussion on the pros and cons of the non-medical male circumcision from a public health point of view, and to raise awareness about the potential complications of this procedure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents three hypothetical case studies for how the AIDS epidemic in Africa could evolve over the next 20 years based on policy decisions taken today by African leaders and the rest of the world; and considers the factors likely to drive the future responses of African countries and the international community. The scenarios draw on the age-old tradition of story-telling, rather than using data projections, to explore the wider context of the AIDS epidemic, reflecting the complexity of the subject matter.
Book Synopsis Estimating the Impact of Identifying and Treating HIV-infected Male Circumcision Clients in Uganda, Zambia, and Swaziland by : Torin Schaafsma
Download or read book Estimating the Impact of Identifying and Treating HIV-infected Male Circumcision Clients in Uganda, Zambia, and Swaziland written by Torin Schaafsma and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: Men represent an underserved population in sub-Saharan Africa with respect to HIV testing and treatment. Identification and treatment of HIV-infected men are vital both to improve their health and prevent onward transmission to their partners, especially for men in sero-discordant partnerships. One means of identifying HIV-infected men is via HIV testing and counseling in conjunction with voluntary medical male circumcision (VMMC) programs. Men in discordant couples could be identified by offering at-home testing to their cohabiting partners. Methods: This analysis utilizes a modified version of the UNAIDS Modes of Transmission (MoT) mathematical model to estimate the number of primary HIV transmissions that could be averted over one year in 2014 and on average from 2015-2025, under two scenarios: 1) identifying and treating HIV-infected VMMC clients in discordant couples as per World Health Organization recommendations; and 2) identifying and treating all HIV-infected VMMC clients. The analysis was applied to three countries with differing magnitudes of HIV prevalence: Uganda, Zambia, and Swaziland. Univariate sensitivity analyses were performed on key model parameters. Results: To meet the WHO/UNAIDS target of 80% coverage of adult male circumcision by 2025, we estimate that each year from 2015 to 2025, an average of 390,945 circumcisions will need to be performed in Uganda, 189,387 in Zambia, and 20,486 in Swaziland. On average over 2015-2025 we estimate that about 2% of men presenting for male circumcision will be HIV-positive and in a discordant couple and that about 40% of those men could be identified and successful treated with ART for at least one year. Using the MoT model we predict that in one year this intervention could successfully identify and treat 2,517 men, preventing 298 new HIV cases in Uganda; 2,232 men, preventing 210 cases in Zambia, and 195 men, preventing 19 cases in Swaziland. Under a scenario in which all HIV-infected men, regardless of relationship status or CD4 count, were offered ART treatment we estimate that about 46% would start and stay on treatment for one year. In one year during 2015-2025, we predict this intervention could successfully identify and treat 9,089 men, preventing 537 new HIV cases in Uganda; 8,893 men, preventing 410 cases in Zambia, and 2,063 men, preventing 68 cases in Swaziland. Discussion and Conclusions: VMMC programs are an important, relatively short-term opportunity to identify HIV-infected men that may not otherwise volunteer for HIV testing. A substantial proportion of the male national population in the 14 VMMC target countries will visit clinics between 2015 and 2025 and large numbers of HIV-infected men will be identified there. We predict that while circumcision programs to date have recruited mostly adolescents, as countries move toward the 80% coverage target, clients will be tend to be older and be more likely to be infected with HIV. If VMMC programs integrate HIV treatment as prevention, even if targeted only at men in discordant couples, thousands of transmissions to partners could be prevented each year.
