Note: RR*, the rate of MC acceptability that Model A and Model B compared to Model C, respectively. Cox regression model adjusting for demographic (age, ethnicity, marital status and education) and regions, estimated RR (relative risk) with 95% CI (confidence interval). Defining the baseline time as the starting point, the endpoint was either acceptance of MC surgery or, for uncircumcised participants, the end of the second follow-up session.
