“…Regarding psychological variables, mood and some psychiatric disorders such as depression impact the self-esteem of patients, which is finally observable as low socialization with others and the difficulties in maintaining an emotional relationship. 5 , 8 , 23 These findings are in agreement with those found in this study because a quite important association was identified with the presence or history of depression or anxiety.…”

“… 7 These disorders are closely related to the symptoms of RA, specifically chronic pain, physical disability, medication side effects, and low self-esteem that ultimately impact on the reduction of sexual desire. 8 For this reason and according to the recommendation of the European League against Rheumatism, comprehensive treatment with psychosocial interventions has shown greater impact on the patient compared to conventional treatment only with a rheumatologist. 9 Taking into account the publications that are currently presented on this topic, it is necessary to know the prevalence of SDs and explore the possible associated factors that may favor early identification and thus comprehensively treat a disease with a high burden that affects all the different Latin American health systems.…”

Introduction Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic and progressive pathology, present in between 0.5% and 1% of adults. Sexual disorders (SDs) occur in between 31% and 70% of all patients with RA. Aim To establish the associated risk factors and the prevalence of SDs in a group of patients with RA. Methods An analytical cross-sectional study was performed, evaluated with the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-V tool. The related factors and the activity of the disease were explored. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted. Main Outcome Measure The prevalence of SDs was 29.6%. There was an association between the presence of SDs and gender (women; odds ratio [OR]: 0.6, 95% CI: 0.4–0.8), age (OR: 1.4, 95% CI: 1.1–1.8), psychological alterations (OR: 12.1, 95% CI: 5.9–27.2), and Disease Activity Score 28 (OR: 1.6, 95% CI: 1.2–2). Results A total of 1,436 patients, with a median age of 56 years, were analyzed. Conclusion SDs are present in a third of patients with RA. Among the factors associated with SDs were the activity of the disease, presence of mood disorders, psychiatric disorders, alcoholism, and concomitant autoimmune pathologies. These findings suggest the necessity of a multidisciplinary approach to properly manage RA, as well as an enhancement in communication channels between the health professional team and the patient.

Background:Increased life expectancy and the growing phenomenon of aging can lead to increased burden of chronic diseases (CDs) which adversely affects the overall health of elderly, their sexuality in particular. Sexual life of an aged population is overlooked in many of the societies. In the present narrative review, we aim to assess the impact of CDs on sexual function of elderly people.Materials and Methods:We used internet databases including PubMed, EMBASE, ISI Web of Science, Google Scholar, SID, Iran Medex, Magiran, IPPF, and UNFPA without time limit. Ninety-eight out of 174 relevant articles were selected which met the inclusion criteria: those articles were research-based in English or Persian (original or review articles) and textbooks; specified one or more CDs and sexual function of the cases; elderly people over the age of sixty, men and women; and coordination between articles and research goals. We excluded qualitative and case studies. We reported the most related CDs with sexual function in literature review and used the biological and psychological impact of the CDs on sexual function of elderly population based on the conceptual model of Verschuren et al. (2010).Results:The results of the studies were classified into the themes including physical, psychological, and cultural and social. Diabetes, cardiovascular, cancerous, and chronic respiratory diseases and also some medications can reduce sexual capacity and desire in particular resulting in negative impact on the quality of elderly sexual life. CDs may influence sexual expressions and responses which adversely affect one's mood and energy so that can cause depression and grief, as well as loss of self-confidence, self-esteem, and self-concept in elderly adults. The factors affecting sexuality of an elderly with CDs include cultural and mythical beliefs about age and illnesses, fear, and embarrass of changed physical appearance. The research conducted among elderly population examining the adverse influence of CDs on aged people's sexual life in general, sexual function and performance, and intimate interaction.Conclusion:It is considered that programs on sexual health needs of aged population for the health-care workers can prove beneficial in improving sexual health.
