In its discussion of urinary tract infections ([[UTI]]’s) and renal disease, the CAA document claimed that a UK study had found that ‘cumulative prevalence (of UTI’s) to age 16 was 3.6% in [[uncircumcised]] boys’, however the article in question actually made no reference at all to the [[circumcision]] status of the boys included in its study. The CAA document also claimed that circumcision ‘protects against recurrence’ of UTI’s. It cited an article in the ''[[Journals|Journal of the American Medical Association]]'' (JAMA) as supporting evidence for that claim, however the JAMA article stated quite clearly that ‘the lack of circumcision documentation in 47% of male children limited our ability to accurately assess risk based on this important factor’.<ref name="IAUS"/> | In its discussion of urinary tract infections ([[UTI]]’s) and renal disease, the CAA document claimed that a UK study had found that ‘cumulative prevalence (of UTI’s) to age 16 was 3.6% in [[uncircumcised]] boys’, however the article in question actually made no reference at all to the [[circumcision]] status of the boys included in its study.
