Abstract in brief

  • The study was a randomized controlled trial in South Africa involving 3,274 uncircumcised men aged 18-24 to assess if male circumcision reduces HIV infection risk, showing a 60% protection rate.
  • Results indicated that HIV incidence was significantly lower in the circumcised group (0.85 per 100 person-years) compared to the control group (4.9 per 100 person-years), with a rate ratio of 0.40.
  • The findings suggest that male circumcision offers protection against HIV comparable to a highly effective vaccine, highlighting its potential role in HIV prevention efforts in sub-Saharan Africa.]
