Erectile dysfunction cannot be used in primary screening of pre-diabetes

Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice

Abstract

We hypothesized that erectile dysfunction is associated with impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance and could be used in primary screening of pre-diabetes. Although erectile dysfunction is known to be closely associated with diabetes, we demonstrate that it is not associated with pre-diabetes in 926 apparently healthy men.
