However, both are silent conditions, and are underestimated, underdiagnosed, and not adequately treated. Several factors, including the effects of the virus, antiretroviral therapy, lifestyle factors, and comorbidities, contribute to testicular dysfunction, which in turn has important effects on bone health. The prevalence of hypogonadism is approximately 20% among men with HIV, but extreme variability in the laboratory and clinical assessment of hypogonadism is reported. The prevalence of osteoporosis is 10-30%, but the poor quality of most studies does not allow definitive conclusions on clinical management. Nonetheless, the early and detailed evaluation of gonadal function and bone health is crucial for improving the quality of life of men with HIV. Global HIV-1 genetic diversity and evolution form a major challenge to treatment and prevention efforts. An increasing number of distinct HIV-1 recombinants have been identified worldwide, but their contribution to the global epidemic is unknown. We aimed to estimate the global and regional distribution of HIV-1 recombinant forms during 1990-2015. We assembled a global HIV-1 molecular epidemiology database through a systematic literature review and a global survey. We searched the PubMed, Embase (Ovid), CINAHL (Ebscohost), and Global Health (Ovid) databases for HIV-1 subtyping studies published from Jan 1, 1990, to Dec 31, 2015. Unpublished original HIV-1 subtyping data were collected through a survey among experts in the field who were members of the WHO-UNAIDS Network for HIV Isolation and Characterisation. We included prevalence studies with HIV-1 subtyping data collected during 1990-2015. Countries were grouped into 14 regions and analyses were done for fo
