The C-reactive protein-triglyceride glucose index (CTI) is emerging as a novel indicator for comprehensively assessing the severity of both inflammation and insulin resistance. However, the association between CTI and erectile dysfunction (ED) remains largely unexplored. Participant data for this study were sourced from NHANES 2001-2004, with exclusion criteria applied to those lacking information on clinical variables. The CTI was defined as 0.412*Ln (CRP) + ln [T.G. (mg/dL) × FPG (mg/dL)/2]. Weighted univariable and multivariable logistic regression models were utilized to examine the correlation between the CTI and ED, assessing the CTI as both a continuous and categorical variable (quartile). Moreover, subgroup analyses were conducted to pinpoint sensitive populations, and interaction analysis was performed to validate the findings. A total of 1502 participants were included in the final analysis, encompassing 302 with ED and 1200 without ED. After adjusting for potential confounders, the CTI was positively associated with ED incidence (OR = 1.56, 95% CI: 1.27-1.90, P = 0.002). The fourth quartile of the CTI significantly increased the incidence of ED (OR = 2.69, 95% CI: 1.07-6.74, P = 0.04), and the lowest quartile of CTI was used as the reference. The dose-response curve revealed a positive linear relationship between the CTI and the incidence of ED. Subgroup analysis confirmed the consistent positive relationship between the CTI and ED. The interaction test indicated no significant impact on this association. Finally, a sensitivity analysis was performed to verify the significant positive correlation between the CTI and severe ED (OR = 1.44, 95% CI: 1.19-1.76, P = 0.004). Our national data indicate that a greater CTI is positively linked to an increased risk of ED in US men, suggesting its potential for use in clinical practice for ED prevention or early intervention. Additional large-scale prospective studies are warranted to substantiate the causative relationship between CTI and ED.

C 反应蛋白-甘油三酯葡萄糖指数(CTI)正在成为全面评估炎症和胰岛素抵抗严重程度的新指标。然而,CTI与勃起功能障碍(ED)之间的关系在很大程度上仍未得到探讨。本研究的参与者数据来自 NHANES 2001-2004,排除标准适用于那些缺乏临床变量信息的人。CTI 定义为 0.412*Ln (CRP) + ln [T.G. (mg/dL) × FPG (mg/dL)/2] 。利用加权单变量和多变量逻辑回归模型来检验 CTI 与 ED 之间的相关性,将 CTI 评估为连续变量和分类变量(四分位数)。此外,还进行了亚组分析以确定敏感人群,并进行了交互分析以验证研究结果。最终分析共纳入了 1502 名参与者,其中包括 302 名 ED 患者和 1200 名非 ED 患者。在对潜在混杂因素进行调整后,CTI与ED发病率呈正相关(OR = 1.56,95% CI:1.27-1.90,P = 0.002)。CTI 的第四四分位数会显著增加 ED 的发病率(OR = 2.69,95% CI:1.07-6.74,P = 0.04),CTI 的最低四分位数被用作参考值。剂量-反应曲线显示 CTI 与 ED 发病率呈正线性关系。亚组分析证实 CTI 与 ED 之间存在一致的正相关关系。交互作用测试表明这种关系没有明显影响。最后,我们进行了一项敏感性分析,以验证 CTI 与严重 ED 之间的显著正相关性(OR = 1.44,95% CI:1.19-1.76,P = 0.004)。我们的全国性数据表明,在美国男性中,CTI越大与ED风险越高呈正相关,这表明CTI有可能在临床实践中用于ED预防或早期干预。要证实 CTI 与 ED 之间的因果关系,还需要进行更多大规模的前瞻性研究。

Traditionally, semen analysis has been viewed solely as a tool for assessing male fertility. However, emerging research suggests that abnormal semen parameters may serve as indicators of broader health issues beyond reproductive function. Studies have revealed significant associations between abnormal semen parameters and an increased risk of chronic diseases such as prostate cancer, diabetes, ischemic heart disease, and metabolic disorders. These findings challenge the conventional understanding and position semen analysis as a potential screening tool for overall male health. The correlation between abnormal semen parameters and conditions like erectile dysfunction further underscores the multifaceted implications of semen quality. This suggests that abnormal semen parameters may be a risk factor for poorer overall health and a higher likelihood of developing comorbidities over time. Given these compelling associations, there is a growing call to integrate semen analysis into routine health assessments for young men, particularly in conjunction with established general health screenings. This proactive approach aligns with a preventative healthcare paradigm, facilitating early detection of underlying health concerns and timely interventions. However, overcoming cultural, logistical, and cost-related barriers is crucial for the successful implementation of this shift in reproductive health.

传统上,精液分析仅被视为评估男性生育能力的工具。然而,新的研究表明,精液参数异常可能是生殖功能以外更广泛的健康问题的指标。研究发现,精液参数异常与慢性疾病(如前列腺癌、糖尿病、缺血性心脏病和代谢紊乱)风险增加之间存在明显关联。这些发现挑战了人们的传统认识,并将精液分析定位为男性整体健康的潜在筛查工具。精液参数异常与勃起功能障碍等疾病之间的相关性进一步强调了精液质量的多方面影响。这表明,精液参数异常可能是整体健康状况较差的一个风险因素,随着时间的推移,患上合并症的可能性也会增加。鉴于这些令人信服的关联,越来越多的人呼吁将精液分析纳入年轻男性的常规健康评估中,特别是与既定的一般健康检查结合起来。这种积极主动的方法符合预防性医疗保健模式,有利于及早发现潜在的健康问题并及时干预。然而,克服文化、后勤和成本方面的障碍对于成功实现生殖健康的这一转变至关重要。

The evolution in conceptualization of sexual desire has stimulated many attempts to measure it. However measures able to assess multiple expressions of desire in all sexual identities are still lacking. The main aim of the present study was to test the psychometric properties of the Sexual Desire and Erotic Fantasies questionnaire - Part 1 Sexual Desire (SDEF1), developed as a sex-positive measure of different sexual desire expressions. The SDEF1 was assessed in 1773 participants from the Italian general population (1105 women, 645 men, and 23 other genders; ranged between 18-78 years old, mean age 29.31 ± 10.35) on an online survey, together with the Sexual Desire Inventory - 2, the International Index of Erectile Function, the Female Sexual Function Index, and the Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability Scale-Short Form. Results support a factorial structure of six dimensions, including 28 items and accounting for 58.11% of the total variance: sexual desire, negative feelings to sexual desire, autoerotic desire, regular partner desire, attractive person desire, and responsive desire. The confirmatory factorial analysis showed satisfactory indexes (RMSEA = 0.042 [90% CI = 0.039-0.045]; GFI = 0.97; NFI = .96; and CFI = 0.97). Regression coefficients ranged from 0.39 to 0.94 and were all statistically significant (p < 0.001). The SDEF1 showed good psychometric properties such as internal reliability, construct, and discriminant validity, and to differentiate women and men with and without sexual difficulties. Men reported significantly higher levels of desire than women in all areas except for desire for a regular partner, were no gender difference was detected. Desire for autoerotic activity was the factor accounting for more variance explained among genders (11.7%). The SDEF1 could be a useful measure to assess different areas of sexual desire and its use could be recommended for clinical and research purposes.

Patient out-of-pocket (OOP) cost represents an access barrier to erectile dysfunction (ED) treatment. We determined OOP cost for men with ED covered by Fee-for-Service Medicare. Coverage policies were obtained from the Medicare Coverage Database for treatments recommended by the 2018 American Urological Association (AUA) guidelines. OOP cost was retrieved from the 2023 Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Final Rule. OOP cost for treatments without Medicare coverage were extracted from GoodRx® or literature and inflated to 2022 dollars. Annual prescription costs were calculated using the published estimate of 52.2 yearly instances of sexual intercourse. Medicare has coverage for inflatable penile prostheses (IPP; strong recommendation), non-coverage for vacuum erection devices (VED; moderate recommendation) and phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitors (PDE5i; strong recommendation), and no policies for intracavernosal injections (ICI; moderate recommendation), intraurethral alprostadil (IA; conditional recommendation), or low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT; conditional recommendation). Annual IA prescription is most costly ($4022), followed by ICI prescription ($3947), one ESWT course ($3445), IPP ($1600), PDE5i prescription ($696), and one VED ($213). PDE5i and IPP, both strongly recommended by AUA guidelines, are associated with lower OOP cost. Better understanding of patient financial burden may inform healthcare decision-making.

患者的自付(OOP)费用是获得勃起功能障碍(ED)治疗的一个障碍。我们确定了付费服务医疗保险(Fee-for-Service Medicare)承保的男性 ED 患者的自付费用。我们从医疗保险承保数据库中获取了 2018 年美国泌尿外科协会 (AUA) 指南推荐治疗的承保政策。从 2023 年美国医疗保险与医疗补助服务中心最终规则中提取了 OOP 成本。未纳入医疗保险范围的治疗的OOP成本从GoodRx®或文献中提取,并膨胀至2022年的美元。年度处方成本按照已公布的每年 52.2 次性交估算计算。医疗保险承保阴茎充气假体 (IPP;强烈推荐),不承保真空勃起装置 (VED;中度推荐) 和 5 型磷酸二酯酶抑制剂 (PDE5i;强烈推荐),对阴茎海绵体内注射 (ICI;中度推荐)、尿道内阿前列地尔 (IA;有条件推荐) 或低强度体外冲击波疗法 (ESWT;有条件推荐) 没有政策规定。每年一次的 IA 处方费用最高(4022 美元),其次是 ICI 处方(3947 美元)、一次 ESWT 疗程(3445 美元)、IPP(1600 美元)、PDE5i 处方(696 美元)和一次 VED(213 美元)。PDE5i 和 IPP 都是 AUA 指南强烈推荐的药物,但它们的 OOP 费用较低。更好地了解患者的经济负担可为医疗决策提供参考。

This study aimed to compare the erectile and ejaculatory functional outcomes of unilateral and bilateral ruptures of the corpus cavernosum in penile fractures. Sixty patients’ data were analyzed retrospectively between June 2020 and January 2023. The patients were divided into two groups based on the affected corpus cavernosum (unilateral and bilateral). Preoperative and postoperative 3rd-, 6th-, and 12th-month self-estimated intravaginal-ejaculation-latency-time (IELT), and international index of erectile function-erectile function (IIEF-EF) scores as well as the presence of urethral injury were compared. Bilateral corpus cavernosum fractures were detected in 18.3% of the patients. The IIEF-EF scores of both groups at 3rd-, 6th-, and 12th-month were found to be significantly lower than the preoperative scores (unilateral group:24.1 ± 2.7 vs 23.2 ± 3.5 and 23.3 ± 3.4, respectively, p = 0.011 and 0.014, respectively; bilateral group: 24 ± 1.9 vs 23 ± 1.8 and 23.2 ± 1.5, respectively, p = 0.027 and 0.047, respectively). No significant difference was found between the preoperative and the postoperative 12th month IIEF-EF scores in either group (unilateral group: 24.1 ± 2.7 vs 23.4 ± 3.6, p = 0.207;bilateral group:24 ± 1.9 vs 23.2 ± 1.5, p = 0.057). The self-estimated IELTs of both groups at the postoperative 3rd, 6th, and 12th months demonstrated a significant increase from the preoperative values (unilateral group: 221.6 ± 81.8 vs 252 ± 94.6, 256.5 ± 97.6, and 250.5 ± 104.8, respectively, p < 0.001; bilateral group:241.8 ± 61.6 vs 278.1 ± 55.4, 281.8 ± 56.1, and 283.6 ± 54.2, respectively, p = 0.041, 0.030, and 0.047, respectively). The changes in self-estimated IELTs and IIEF-EF scores between the preoperative period and the postoperative 3rd, 6th, and 12th-months were compared, and no statistical difference was found between patients with unilateral and bilateral corpus cavernosum fractures (p > 0.05). In conclusion, no significant difference in erectile function was found in either group at the 12-month follow-up, and the self-estimated IELTs were found to be prolonged in both groups. Furthermore, no difference was noted between the groups at any follow-up. To explain the effects of unilateral and bilateral injuries on erectile and ejaculatory functions, further studies with a larger-number of patients are necessary.
本研究旨在比较阴茎骨折中单侧和双侧海绵体破裂的勃起和射精功能结果。研究回顾性分析了 2020 年 6 月至 2023 年 1 月期间 60 例患者的数据。根据受影响的阴茎海绵体(单侧和双侧)将患者分为两组。比较了患者术前和术后第 3、6 和 12 个月的阴道内射精-延迟时间(IELT)自我估计值、国际勃起功能指数-勃起功能(IIEF-EF)评分以及是否存在尿道损伤。18.3%的患者发现双侧海绵体骨折。两组患者在第 3 个月、第 6 个月和第 12 个月的 IIEF-EF 评分均显著低于术前评分(单侧组:24.1 ± 2.7 vs 23.2 ± 3.5 和 23.3 ± 3.4,分别为 p = 0.011 和 0.014;双侧组:24 ± 1.9 vs 23 ± 1.8 和 23.2 ± 1.5,分别为 p = 0.027 和 0.047)。两组术前和术后第 12 个月的 IIEF-EF 评分均无明显差异(单侧组:24.1 ± 2.7 vs 23.4 ± 3.6,p = 0.207;双侧组:24 ± 1.9 vs 23.2 ± 1.5,p = 0.057)。两组患者在术后第 3、6 和 12 个月的自测 IELT 均比术前有显著提高(单侧组:221.6 ± 81.8 vs 252 ± 94.6、256.5 ± 97.6 和 250.5 ± 104.8,P 0.05)。总之,在 12 个月的随访中,两组患者的勃起功能均无明显差异,且两组患者自我估计的 IELT 均有延长。此外,在任何一次随访中,两组之间均未发现差异。为了解释单侧和双侧损伤对勃起和射精功能的影响,有必要对更多患者进行进一步研究。
