Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Prevalence of circumcision" in English language version.
The prevalence of male circumcision in Britain was 20.7% [95% confidence interval (CI): 19.3–21.8].
Circumcision is not usually performed by public sector health care providers in Mexico and we estimate the prevalence to be 10% to 31%, depending on the population.
The mean mewborn male circumcision rate was 55.9%. When we controlled for other factors, hospitals in states in which Medicaid covers routine male circumcision had circumcision rates that were 24 percentage points higher than did hospitals in states without such coverage (P < .001).
Researchers should be aware that infant circumcision rates [in the United States] are likely to be significantly higher than hospital discharge data might suggest.
"The reason the stats are bogus," Dr. Seppa explains, "is that the numbers are based on what happens in hospitals … it's underestimated because people no longer circumcise at the hospital." Seppa estimates it would take "months of tallying" procedures at every private office and clinic in the community to get an accurate number.

The prevalence of male circumcision in Britain was 20.7% [95% confidence interval (CI): 19.3–21.8].
As a result, there are already indications of increasing demand for male circumcision in traditionally non-circumcising societies in Southern Africa.
