PURPOSE:: We examined whether men with erectile dysfunction (ED) are more likely to have hypertension than men without ED in a managed care setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS:: We used a naturalistic cohort design to compare hypertension prevalence rates in 285,436 men with ED to that in 1,584,230 men without ED from 1995 through 2001. We also used a logistic regression model to isolate the effect of ED on the likelihood of hypertension after controlling for subject age, census regions and 9 concurrent diseases. The ED and the nonED cohort came from a nationally representative, managed care claims database that covers 51 health plans and 28 million members in the United States. Finally, the prevalence rate difference between members with and without ED, and the OR of having hypertension were calculated. RESULTS:: The hypertension prevalence rate was 41.2% in men with ED and 19.2% in men without ED. After controlling for subject age, census region and 9 concurrent diseases the OR was 1.383 (p <0.0001), which implies that the odds for men with ED to have hypertension were 38.3% higher than the odds for men without ED. CONCLUSIONS:: Men with ED were more likely to have hypertension than men without ED. This evidence supports the hypothesis that ED shares common risk factors with hypertension. It also suggests that men with ED and clinicians could use ED as an alerting signal to detect and treat undiagnosed hypertension earlier. 相似文献

Study Type – Symptom prevalence (prospective cohort/RCT) Level of Evidence 1b What’s known on the subject? and What does the study add? Erectile dysfunction (ED) that is mild (score of 22–25 on the Erectile Function domain of the International Index of Erectile Function) is often overlooked in clinical practice because men do not seek treatment or because healthcare professionals consider complaints of mild ED to be irrelevant and fail to evaluate such patients. ED is associated with increased prevalence of diseases that accompany ageing, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes, but there do not appear to be any published epidemiological data on the prevalence or risk for such diseases in populations of men with mild ED. Greater understanding of this population’s underlying risk for diseases associated with ED may highlight the importance of earlier diagnosis and treatment. In this study, the underlying risk for diseases associated with ED is compared between the first large population of men with mild ED for whom demographic and baseline data have been reported and a manufacturer’s database of men (representing the general ED clinical trial population), which is the largest population of men with ED for whom demographic and baseline data have been reported. The findings show that men with mild ED may have substantial underlying risk for diseases associated with ED, including hypertension, diabetes, and lipid disorders.
OBJECTIVE
? To compare the underlying risk for diseases associated with erectile dysfunction (ED; i.e. cardiovascular disease and diabetes) in a population of men with mild ED relative to a general ED clinical trial population.PATIENTS AND METHODS
? Men enrolled in a randomized, double‐blind placebo‐controlled (DBPC) trial of sildenafil for the treatment of mild ED were compared with a database of men enrolled in 67 of the manufacturer’s other DBPC sildenafil trials. ? The main outcome measures were baseline demographics, comorbidities and concomitant medications.RESULTS
? In both populations, most men were white, approximately one quarter were smokers, and most had an organic component to their ED etiology. ? In the mild ED population (N= 176) versus the database population (N= 14 537), mean ±sd (range) age was 50 ± 12 (19–84) versus 55 ± 11 (18–89) years, body mass index was 29 ± 5 (20–48) versus 28 ± 5 (11–64) kg/m2 and ED duration was 3.5 ± 3.2 (<1–18) versus 4.6 ± 4.7 (<1–45) years. ? The prevalence of comorbidities associated with ED was similar (hypertension 26.1% (n= 46) vs 32.8%; diabetes mellitus 13.6% (n= 24) vs 22.1%; dyslipidemias 12.5% (n= 22) vs 11.7%; hypercholesterolemia 12.5% (n= 22) vs 9.5%; gastro‐esophageal reflux disease 10.8% (n= 19) vs 6.0%; benign prostatic hyperplasia 9.7% (n= 17) vs 9.9%; depression 6.3% (n= 11) vs 5.6%; and anxiety 4.0% (n= 7) vs 1.6%), as was the rate of use of medications for those comorbidities.CONCLUSIONS
? Men with mild ED have similar risk factors to a general ED clinical trial population. Thus, mild ED is an important indicator of risk for underlying disease associated with ED. ? Inquiry into ED should be part of routine clinical evaluation to facilitate rapid identification and early intervention. ? Men complaining of mild ED should be evaluated adequately for underlying cardiovascular risk. 相似文献4.
Treatment preferences in men with erectile dysfunction: an open label study in Korean men switching from sildenafil citrate to tadalafil 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Ahn TY Lee SW Kim SW Yang DY Park NC Min KS Park K Paick JS Dyachkova Y Dwight T Lee MS 《Asian journal of andrology》2007,9(6):760-770
To evaluate patient preferences for sildenafil citrate or tadalafil (PDE-5 inhibitors available for the treatment of erectile dysfunction [ED]) and assess potential reasons for these preferences. Methods: This open-label study was conducted on Korean men taking sildenafil, at least 6 weeks prior to study entry, for ED. Following screening, patients continued sildenafil treatment for 4 weeks, then after a 1-week washout period, switched to tadalafil for 8 weeks. Patients then continued with their treatment of choice during an extension phase. Psychosocial factors (time concern, spontaneity, sexual self-confidence) were evaluated using Psychological and Interpersonal Relation- ship Scales (PAIRS), while timing of dose to sexual attempt patterns were assessed from patient diaries. Results: The present study enrolled 160 Korean men (mean age 55 years) with prior median sildenafil use of 585 days. During the extension phase, 73.7% of patients elected to take tadalafil, whereas 26.3% chose sildenafil (P 〈 0.001). After switching from sildenafil to tadalafil, mean PAIRS time concern scores decreased from 2.54 to 2.42 (P = 0.002), with no statistically significant differences observed between the sildenafil and tadalafil assessment phases in sexual spontaneity and self-confidence scores. Sexual attempts made 〉 4 h to 〈 36 h post-dose occurred in 4.5% of patients during the sildenafil assessment phase compared with 17.5% during the tadalafil assessment phase. Conclusion: After experiencing both sildenafil and tadalafil, the majority of patients exhibited a preference for tadalafil. This preference might be influenced by psychosocial factors, such as decreased time concerns, and a broader window of opportunity available for sexual activity. 相似文献

Purpose: Pelvic ring fractures constitute 3%-8% of all fractures of the skeletal system and are generally related with high energy trauma. Sexual dysfunction following pelvic fracture has a high incidence, and affects the male patients both physically and psychologically. In this study, we aimed to investigate the impact and frequencies of comorbidities such as erectile dysfunction (ED) with adverse sociocultural and psychological consequences for the patient who had a pelvic ring fracture.
Methods: This study included 26 men who corresponded to the inclusion criteria and agreed to
participate our study.
Results: According to fracture types, most of our cases were Tile type A1 and type A2. Severe and
moderate ED were detected in 46.1% (12/26) of these patients via the International Index of Erectile
Function-5 questionnaire.
Conclusion: ED develops following pelvic fractures, especially in Tile type B and C pelvic fractures. 相似文献

To prospectively compare serum hormone levels and the incidence of hormonal pathologies between men with and without erectile dysfunction, and investigate risk factors that might predict hormonal pathologies in men complaining of erectile dysfunction. The study included 262 men with erectile dysfunction and 53 healthy men with no erectile dysfunction as a control group. All men enrolled in the study were evaluated with a detailed history, physical examination, international index of erectile function (IIEF-5), and serum hormone measurement. Hypotestosteronemia was considered as serum total testosterone value of < 3 ng/mL, and hyperprolactinemia was considered as serum prolactin level of > 18 ng/mL. Serum hormone levels and the incidence of hormonal abnormalities were compared between the two groups. In addition, risk factors for hormonal abnormalities were investigated. There were no significant differences in the mean serum FSH (p = 0.212), LH (p = 0.623), testosterone (p = 0.332) and prolactin values (p = 0.351) between the men with and without erectile dysfunction. Hypotestosteronemia was detected in 29 (11%) of the erectile dysfunction group and in 2 (3.7%) of the control group, revealing no significant difference (p = 0.104). Hyperprolactinemia was detected in 25 (9.5%) of the erectile dysfunction group and in 2 (3.7%) of the control group, revealing no significant difference (p = 0.171). To investigate risk factors that might predict hormonal pathologies, there were no significant differences in the patient age, duration of the sexual dysfunction, smoking history and duration, the presence of chronic disease and the type of erectile dysfunction. Our findings suggest that hormonal measurement should not be routinely performed in the initial evaluation of men presenting with erectile dysfunction, and may be necessary based only on the findings obtained with a careful history and physical examination. 相似文献

Veterans (N=41) with type II diabetes were enrolled in a behavioral and pharmacologic intervention for cardiac risk reduction for 4 weeks at the Providence Veterans Affairs Medical Center during 2004-2007 and were followed up 3 months post intervention. Erectile dysfunction (ED) was assessed using the 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5). Participants experienced significant improvements in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), diastolic blood pressure and total cholesterol levels over the course of the intervention. Change in systolic and diastolic blood pressure and reduction in or maintenance of HbA1c below 7.0% were significantly associated with change in IIEF-5 (P=0.01, P=0.01, P=0.04, respectively). These results suggest that improved blood pressure and glycemic control in men with diabetes may lead to an improvement in ED. 相似文献

Although erectile dysfunction (ED) prevalence is high, patients and physicians often have problems discussing this issue. This study examines whether written information material increases motivation to seek treatment in patients with ED. For the study, persons were able to order information material about sexual problems within the context of a public campaign. From a total of 70,000 responders, 8000 persons were asked to fill out an epidemiological questionnaire. The response rate yielded 18.4%, the data of 1188 men with ED were analyzed. As a result of the information material, 28.3% of the untreated men intended to seek treatment and 38.5% of the men who had not spoken with their physician about their problem, planned to do so now. Nearly all responders were satisfied with the information material. These data reflect the usefulness of written information for men with ED. It not only serves as an informational source for patients but may also encourage them to seek treatment. 相似文献

We present data collected among men attending a free call service on information on erectile dysfunction (ED) activated in Italy during the period 1997-1999. Their attitudes towards discussion with their partner and physician about the condition are considered. Each subject, was asked if he was affected by ED (defined as inability to achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance). In the case of a positive answer, the subject was asked if he had ever discussed his condition with partner or a physician. A total of 12 761 subjects with ED called the service: 7265 (56.9%) reported to have discussed their condition with their partner. The proportion tended to increase with duration of ED, being 47.9% in subjects reporting ED lasting <6 months and 59.9% in those reporting ED lasting >3 y (w(2)(1) trend <0.05). Likewise, the proportion of subjects reporting to have discussed ED with a physician was 50.3% (6416 subjects), being 33.6% in subjects with ED lasting <6 months and 57.9% of those with ED lasting >3 y (w(2)(1) trend, P<0.01). 相似文献

Aim: To test the hypothesis that sildenafil (50 mg nightly for one year) can improve spontaneous erectile function (EF) in men with mild-to-moderate arteriogenic erectile dysfunction (ED) responsive to erectogenic treatment. Methods: In a prospective open-label trial, 112 men with ED were randomized to sildenafil 50 mg nightly or sildenafil 50 or 100 mg as needed for 12 months, followed by one-month and 6-month non-medicated periods. Non-randomized, non-medicated men with ED were also assessed. The EF domain of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF EF) and the peak systolic velocity (PSV) of penile cavernous arteries were used to measure the efficacy. Results: After sildenafil treatment and a subsequent non-medicated month, IIEF EF was normal in 29 of 48 (60.4%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 45.3-74.2%) of the nightly group vs. 4 of 49 (8.2%, 95% CI: 2.3-19.6%) of the as-needed group. PSV improved by 11.2 cm/s (95% CI: 4.7-21.4; P = 0.012) in the nightly group but only by 3.4 cm/s (-5.1- 14.7; P = 0.435) in the as-needed group. IIEF EF normalized in 1 of 18 (5.6%, 95% CI: 0.1-27.3%) non-medicated men and the PSV declined slightly. Six months after treatment, the IIEF EF remained normal and PSV was stabilized in most (28/29, 97%) nightly group men who had initially normalized. Conclusion: Sildenafil nightly for one year resulted in ED regression that persisted well beyond the end of treatment, so that spontaneous EF was characterized as normal on the IIEF in most men. The results from this open-label, randomized trial warrant verification under double-blind, placebo-controlled conditions. 相似文献

Objective
Vardenafil has been shown to be efficacious in patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). We evaluated first-dose and repeat-dose response to vardenafil 20 mg.Methods
This randomized, placebo-controlled study consisted of a 4-week, treatment-free run-in phase; a 1-week, open-label challenge phase; and a 12-week, double-blind treatment phase. Primary efficacy was assessed in terms of reliability of insertion based on dose as measured by the Sexual Encounter Profile question 2 (SEP2). We assessed safety by evaluating adverse events (AEs).Results
Baseline patient characteristics in the 2 treatment groups were similar. The most common comorbidities were hypertension (41%), dyslipidemia (28%) and diabetes mellitus (24%). Of the 573 patients receiving the 20-mg vardenafil challenge dose, 464 (81%) achieved first-time successful penetration (SEP2), and 401 (70%) reported successful erection maintenance (SEP3). Patients receiving vardenafil 20 mg had statistically (p < 0.001) and clinically superior SEP2 rates (85%) through weeks 0–12, compared with patients receiving placebo (45%). The increase in reliability of insertion was seen within the first 4 weeks of treatment. Vardenafil therapy was statistically (p < 0.001) and clinically superior to placebo for all secondary efficacy end points as well. Most AEs associated with vardenafil were mild to moderate, with headache, flushing and nasal congestion most frequently reported.Conclusion
Vardenafil 20 mg had a high first-dose success rate for both SEP2 (81%) and SEP3 (70%); this was maintained through to the study end point (85% for SEP2 and 78% for SEP3). These findings were achieved in men with frequently associated comorbidities including hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes. 相似文献14.
Environmental erectile dysfunction: can the environment really be hazardous to your erectile health?
Burnett AL 《Journal of andrology》2008,29(3):229-236
The proposal that exposures to environmental or occupational substances may affect erection ability is a tenable one and would add to a growing list of pathogenic risk factors associated with erectile dysfunction. Several lines of evidence gained by clinical epidemiologic and biomedical research investigations lend support. Several environmental toxicants to include lead, organic solvents, and pesticides have been implicated as possibly hazardous agents. Effects on the nervous and hormonal systems have been proposed as the leading mechanisms by which environmental toxicants adversely impact erectile function. Synthesis of the current evidence supports a possible risk association between environmental exposures and erectile dysfunction. However, scientific support is lacking to establish a direct causal association at this time. More scientific work is needed to identify specific environmental agents that may harm erectile function and define their exact mechanisms of action in this regard. 相似文献

Aim: Electrophysiological monitoring of the activity of the penile sympathetic skin responses (PSSR) in healthy menand patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). Methods: PSSR were recorded from the skin of penis with disk elec-trodes at the time of electric stimulation of left median nerves. Results: PSSR were recorded from all the healthymen and almost all the patients. In healthy men the latency of P_0, the latency of N_1, the duration of N_1 and the ampli-tude of N_1 were 1249 ± 111 ms, 2239 ± 286 ms, 1832 ± 505 ms and 470 μV (median), respectively. In ED patientsthe latency of P_0, the latency of N_1, the duration of N_1 and the amplitude of N_1 were 1467 ± 183 ms ( P < 0.01), 2561± 453 ms (P < 0.05), 2560 ± 861 ms (P < 0.01 ) and 91 μV (P < 0.01), respectively. The normal latency of Powas less than 1471 ms. The normal amplitude of N1 was more than 235μV. According to this normal value, of 20 pa-tients 11 showed longer latency of P_0, and 14 showed lower amplitude of N_1 as compared with tho 相似文献

The landmark Massachusetts Male Ageing Study shed new light on the prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED) and drew attention to ED as a disease of ageing. Over the years, ED has been linked to the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in some patients. There is clear evidence that ED and CVD share and have a similar risk factor profile. CVD is one of the most recognizable causes of mortality and early detection coupled with prevention of mortality from CVD has been the prime interest of many researchers. Consequently, there has been a multidisciplinary curiosity regarding the proposal to use ED as a marker for future CVD. In fact, there have been several proposals to use ED as a screening tool for future CVD. We performed a comprehensive search of two main databases-PubMed and Cochrane Library using a combination of keywords such as acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease (CAD) and ED. Journal articles from January 2000 to June 2011 were reviewed. We included all articles discussing the relationship between ED and CVD in the English language. All the relevant randomized controlled trials, cohort and retrospective studies, and review articles were included in our overall analysis in an attempt to answer the question whether all patients with ED should be clinically evaluated for CVD. The results showed a link between ED and the development of future CVD in some patients, but ED was not shown to be an independent risk predictor that is any better than the traditional Framingham risk factors. Screening for CVD may, however, be rewarding in younger patients with severe ED and in patients with concurrent CVD risk factors. 相似文献

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common sexual problem affecting up to one-third of men throughout their lives. According to the Massachusetts Male Aging Study (MMAS), ED affects an estimated 52% of men between the ages of 40 and 70. With the approval of sildenafil (USA in March 1998), the first phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor to be made available for treatment of ED, and the subsequent approval of vardenafil (USA in August 2003) and tadalafil (USA in November 2003), the PDE-5 inhibitor class of drugs has rapidly become the first-line therapy for ED of varying etiologies and severities. 相似文献
