Increased risk of organic erectile dysfunction in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome: a nationwide population-based cohort study

Abstract: SUMMARYChronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a complex disorder characterized by profound and persistent fatigue and several comorbidities. CFS was previously reported to be associated with female sexual dysfunction. We propose that CFS might also be associated with organic erectile dysfunction (organic ED). We conducted a retrospective cohort study by using data from the National Health Insurance (NHI) Research Database. We identified 2156 male patients who were newly diagnosed with CFS between January 1, 2003 an… Show more

“…There are some researches using the population-based NHIRD to study the association between ED and medical illness ( Chao et al, 2015 ; Chen et al, 2016 ; Kao et al, 2016 ; Michalowsky et al, 2016 ; Wang et al, 2016 ; Wimo et al, 2016 ; Wu et al, 2016 ). This is the first study to use a nationwide database to analyze the association of ED and TBI in Taiwan.…”

“…In mixed ED, Patient presents both organic and psychogenic factors. The ICD-9-CM codes do not include mixed ED, and patients with mixed ED were coded as organic ED ( Chao et al, 2015 ). In this study, patients with TBI were associated with a higher rate of organic ED than in the control group (adjusted HR=2.373, 95% CI [2.028, 3.854], p < .001).…”

“…There are two specific ICD-9-CM codes for ED diagnosed by a physician or urologist: 607.84 for organic ED and 302.72 for psychogenic ED. Claims-based ED research is valid, according to numerous studies published in Taiwan ( Chao, Chen, Wang, Li, & Kao, 2015 ; Chen et al, 2015 ; C. Y. Chou, Yang, Chou, Hu, & Huang, 2016 ; P. S. Chou et al, 2015 ; Hsu, Lin, & Kao, 2015 ; Huang, Lin, Chan, Loh el, & Lan, 2013 ; Kao et al, 2016 ). The day of the first ED claim was considered the index date.…”
