The deterministic model for co-infection of cervical cancer and HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) diseases is formulated and rigorously analyzed. The optimal control theory is employed to the model to study the level of effort is needed to control the transmission of co-infection of cervical cancer and HIV diseases using three controls; prevention, screening and treatment control strategies. Numerical solutions show a remarkable decrease of infected individuals with HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) infection, cervical cancer, cervical cancer and HIV, cervical cancer and AIDS (Acquire Immunodeficiency Syndrome), HIV infection and AIDS after applying the combination of the optimal prevention, screening and treatment control strategies. However, Incremental Cost-Effective Ratio (ICER) shows that the best control strategy of minimizing cervical cancer among HIV-infected individuals with low cost is to use the combination of prevention and treatment control strategies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
