Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the glyco-metabolic profile among type 2 diabetic patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). We evaluated 88 type 2 diabetic males, aged 62.78 ± 9.26 years. We administered patients the IIEF (International Index of Erectile Function) questionnaire to assess erectile function, organ function, sexual desire, and satisfaction level during and after the sexual intercourse and the SAS (self-rating anxiety scale) and SDS (self-rating depression scale) questionnaires to evaluate anxiety and depression. We evaluated: BMI, abdominal circumference, glycated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting plasma insulin (FPI), HOMA index, lipid profile, testosterone, free testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG). The IIEF questionnaire showed that in the examined sample there were 50 patients (56.8%) affected by ED, and 38 patients (43.2%) without ED. Comparing the two groups, 57.9% of patients without ED, and 70.0% of patients with ED were smokers, and the difference between the two groups was significant (p<0.05). Furthermore, 23.7% of patients without ED, and 38.0% of patients with ED had a history of chronic ischemic heart disease (p<0.05 between the two...Continue Reading

Biomarkers for Type 2 Diabetes

Biomarkers can help understand chronic diseases and assist in risk prediction for prevention and early detection of diseases. Here is the latest research on biomarkers in type 2 diabetes, a disease in which the body is unable to produce or properly use insulin.
