“…In our study, there was a statistically significant link between polygamy and ED. These results were similar to those reported by Diao et al who showed that the severity of ED in the general population increased with the number of wives ( 17 ). No significant association between the duration on dialysis and DE was observed in our patients (P = 0.07).…”

Background:Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) experience multiple complications including erectile dysfunction (ED). It involves more than 50% of patients on dialysis or transplant. In Africa, the true extent of ED in CKD is unknown although some studies have been done in this regard.Objectives:This study aimed to determine the prevalence and identify risk factors of ED in patients on hemodialysis.Patients and Methods:This cross-sectional multicenter study was conducted from January 2, 2012 through April 30, 2012 in four hemodialysis centers in Dakar. We included all patients on chronic hemodialysis who aged ≥ 18 years old and freely consented to participate in the study. Sociodemographic, clinical, and hemodialysis data were collected through a questionnaire. Erectile function was assessed by a short version of International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5).Results:Among a target of 80 patients, 73 met the inclusion criteria and were included in this study. Mean dialysis vintage was 27.3 months (range, 1-156). Their mean age was 53.81 ± 12.52 years, with a higher proportion of age group of 50 to 69 years old. Fifty-six patients were married (37 monogamous and 19 polygamous) and six were singles. Overall prevalence of ED was 84.9% and it was severe in 14 patients (19.2%). Hypertension and diabetes were the most frequent etiologies and antihypertensive treatment was used in 95.5%. The main factors associated with ED were age > 50 years old and polygamy.Conclusions:ED is a common problem among patients on hemodialysis in Dakar with a high prevalence. Aging and diabetes represent most common causes. More efforts are needed for its early detection, prevention, and multidisciplinary management.

“…Earlier studies, which although give an evidence of association of age with erectile dysfunction (ED) yet they have recorded the prevalence of ED in older adults aged 40 years and above. [19][20][21] Prevalence of ED in few cases of younger age group between 20-40 years have also been reported in the literature. [22][23][24] Influx of young healthy patients reporting for consultation may be because of increased awareness or due to non-inclusion of young patients in the sample studied by previous authors.…”

“…History of smoking showed no positive association with ED in the present study, some studies are in favour of our findings and some contrary to it. 21,29,30,[32][33][34][35][36] Earlier studies have shown that alcohol consumption may not be predictive of ED in men with moderate or low level of alcohol consumption. 31,35 The findings are in line with the results of our study where all the patients who gave history of alcohol consumption consumed it in mild to moderate quantity.…”

INTRODUCTIONErectile dysfunction (ED) is the persistent lack of ability to attain and maintain an erection which is sufficient to permit satisfactory sexual performance. 1 Erection is a complex interplay of phenomenon like arterial dilation, trabecular smooth muscle relaxation, and activation of the corporeal veno-occlusive mechanism and requires a coordinated equilibrium between the neurological, vascular and the tissue compartments.ED may occur as a result of vasculogenic, neurogenic, anatomical, hormonal, drug-induced and/or psychogenic factors.2 Burden of disease on men suffering from ED in particular and also on their partners has a significant ABSTRACT Background: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a highly prevalent yet underestimated disorder among men, associated with a significant burden of illness. The understanding of pathophysiological factors has led to better assessment of the disease yet a lot of patients are left dissatisfied and undertreated. The study was undertaken to elicit the various life style and psychological variables associated with ED. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on cases of ED reporting in urology OPD in 3 months period. A pretested semi structured questionnaire was used as a data collection tool. ED was addressed in five domains using International index of erectile function (IIEF) scale. Information collected included socio demographic factors, life style variables and psychological factors [perceived stress (PT), self-esteem (SST) and erectile performance anxiety (ET)]. Data collected was analyzed using independent sample t test. Results: A total of 155 cases of ED participated in the study. Their mean age was 33.93±5.05 years (range 25-48). 80.6% were non-smokers, 54.8% were alcoholic and 22.6% patients performed light physical activity. There was no statistically significant association between different life style variables with five domains of International index of erectile function except for the domain of orgasmic function with consumption of drugs (p=0.017) and intercourse satisfaction with physical activity(p=0.045). Barring the domain of overall satisfaction most of the other domains of ED showed a significant association with psychological variables. Conclusions: Contrary to lifestyle factors, psychological factors are significantly related to ED and need to be addressed effectively for improving patient treatment outcome.

“…7 Matsumoto et al 21 reported an average age of 50.9 ± 16.6 years for ED cases in a Japanese population, while Martín-Amat et al 22 reported an average age of 53 ± 9 years for cases and 53 ± 8 years for controls in their study of a Spanish population. The average age of the study population was country-specific, according to Diallo et al, 23 who found an average age of 45 ± 5 years of patients with ED in Senegal.…”

Background. This study investigated the association between periodontitis and organic erectile dysfunction (ED) in a sub-Saharan population. Methods. This multicenter analytical study lasted from April to September 2021. A total of 114 patients (38 cases and 76 controls) were recruited and matched on age, diabetes, and smoking status. Medical history and ED were recorded, as well as the plaque index, bleeding index, maximum interdental clinical attachment loss (CALmax), maximum probing depth, clinically detectable furcation involv ement, number of teeth in the mouth, number of teeth lost for periodontal reasons, and tooth mobility. The analysis was performed with SPSS 20.0 with a significance threshold set at 5%. Results. The two study groups were comparable regarding sociodemographic characteristics. Periodontitis was present in 76.31% of cases and 75% of controls without a significant difference (P=0.878). Logistic regression showed a significant association between high blood pressure and ED with an OR=4.78 (95% CI: 1.80‒12.70). Periodontitis was not associated with ED (OR=1.52, 95% CI: 0.55‒4.16); however, severe periodontitis was significantly associated with severe ED (OR=1.44, 95% CI: 1.11‒1.85, and OR=1.68, 95% CI: 1.15‒2.44, respectively for CALmax and tooth loss). Conclusion. Within the limits of this study, periodontitis was not associated with organic ED. However, the severity of periodontal disease significantly increased in patients with organic ED.
