Type 2 diabetes mellitus increases risk of erectile dysfunction independent of obesity and dyslipidemia: A Mendelian randomization study

Abstract: Background:The causal effects of individual risk factors of metabolic syndrome on erectile dysfunction (ED) are still unclear.Objectives: To evaluate the causal effect of risk factors of metabolic syndrome on ED through Mendelian randomization (MR). Materials and methods:Data for risk factors were obtained from multiple databases with 173,082-757,601 individuals, and that for ED were collected from a genomewide association study including 223,805 Europeans. We performed univariate MR analysis using inverse-var… Show more

“…However, the logistic regression analysis showed that, along with the new diagnosis of DM, hypertension and age worsen the severity of ED, but not BMI. In this regard, a recent study conducted by Yuan et al highlighted that DM showed a direct causal effect on ED, independent of obesity and dyslipidemia [ 30 ].…”

“…An aberrant vascular response to insulin and subsequent vasoconstriction have been observed in individuals with insulin resistance; these issues may contribute to ED ( 23 , 25 ). A mendelian randomization study showed that T2DM has a causal relationship with ED independently from obesity and dyslipidemia ( 26 ).…”

“…A comparison of the two groups showed that increased LH and PRL were associated with an increased risk of more severe ED in the DMED population. This can be attributed to diabetes-induced m e t a b o l i c s y n d r o m e le a d i n g t o e l e v a t e d L H a n d hyperprolactinemia (HyperPRL) causing ED, and the related mechanisms are currently being studied (25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31). Therefore, screening and appropriate interventions for men with erectile dysfunction is warranted (32).…”
