Abstract
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. DM patients develop both macrovascular and microvascular complications, erectile dysfunction (ED) being one of them. The risk of developing ED in DM patients as compared to those without DM is 3-4 times. Our study has reported the burden of ED in DM patients.
Methods: Literature search was done by using PubMed and EMBASE databases for studies published from 1 January 2013 to 31 December 2013 by using terms such as diabetes, erectile dysfunction, and their synonyms. Pooled prevalence was calculated by using random effect model and Der Simonian-Laird method. Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal scale for cross-sectional studies was used for assessing the study quality.
Results: Five hundred and sixty-seven studies were identified, out of which 10 studies were selected. The prevalence of ED in Type 2 DM patients in India was estimated 60.57% (95% CI: 48.84-72.30%).
Conclusion: Prevalence of ED in DM patients is high in India. Stigma, stress, and phobia related to ED needs to be addressed. Screening, awareness, early diagnosis, and management for ED and DM will help in improving morbidity and mortality of the nation.
期刊介绍:
Implicated in a plethora of regulatory dysfunctions involving growth and development, metabolism, electrolyte balances and reproduction, endocrine disruption is one of the highest priority research topics in the world. As a result, we are now in a position to better detect, characterize and overcome the damage mediated by adverse interaction with the endocrine system. Expert Review of Endocrinology and Metabolism (ISSN 1744-6651), provides extensive coverage of state-of-the-art research and clinical advancements in the field of endocrine control and metabolism, with a focus on screening, prevention, diagnostics, existing and novel therapeutics, as well as related molecular genetics, pathophysiology and epidemiology.
