It has been estimated that currently over 150 million men worldwide suffer from erectile dysfunction (ED) and by 2025, the figure will increase beyond 322 millions. ED is the inability to achieve, and/or maintain penile erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse, and was previously regarded as the part of aging. It is associated with certain diseases and life style habits with a cause-effect relationship, including diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and cigarette smoking. Internationally, most of the men with ED fail to pursue treatment due to the complex nature of sexuality, taboos, cultural restrictions, and acceptance of ED as a normal sequel of aging. In this review, we discussed the physiology, diagnosis, and risk factors associated with ED and current treatment strategies for ED.Keywords: Erectile dysfunction, Diabetes, Penile erection, Phosphodiesterase inhibitors.

Abstract Background: Erectile dysfunction (ED) has a negative impact on ones’ relationships with poor quality of life as inevitable result. Men’s sexual health has been forgotten in most developing countries and therefore the burden of ED and associated risk factors are not known in these settings. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and factors associated with erectile dysfunction among adult men in Moshi municipality, northern Tanzania. Methodology: A community based cross-sectional study was conducted in July 2019. Multi stage sampling technique was used to enroll men aged 18 years and above infour wards of Moshi municipality. The 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) scale was used to assess erectile dysfunction. Multivariate logistic regression was done to get factors associated with ED. Results: The mean age of the 381 men was 39.6 (SD ±16.8) years. Theoverall prevalence of ED on this study was 29.7%. The severity of ED among study participants was 13.4 % (51), 9.7 % (37), 3.7 % (14), 2.9% (11) participants had mild, mild to moderate, moderate and severe erectile dysfunction respectively. Age, tobacco use, overweight, hypertension and diabetes all showed significance association with ED. However, in multivariate logistic analysis only age ≥40 years and hypertension remain statistically significant associated with ED [(OR 5.2, 95% CI 2.68-10.21, P<0.001), (OR 11.5, 95% CI 5.8-22.76, P<0.001) and (OR 2.5, 95% CI 1.06-5.86, P=0.035) ] respectively. Conclusion: About one in three men in Moshi municipal had ED. High prevalence of ED among hypertensive individuals suggest a need to establish ED screening program during their routine clinic for early detection and treatment. Furthermore, education should be given on lifestyle modification to prevent hypertension and diabetes in the community. The outcome will be improvement of patient’s quality of life.

The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and factors associated with of Premature Ejaculation &Erectile Dysfunctionamong Malaysian men. A cross-sectional study was conducted in urban and rural areas using standardized and validated self-administered questionnaires. A total of 319 samples were recruited for PE screening. The overall prevalence of PE was 31.7% with 20.7% and 40.8% for urban and rural area respectively. Depression, anxiety and frequent masturbation were significantly associated with PE. While For ED, infrequent sexual intercourse was the sole factor significantly associated with ED.PE and ED were highly prevalent in both urban and rural areas; with several significant preventable associated factors.

Abstract Background Erectile dysfunction (ED) has a negative impact on ones’ relationships with poor quality of life as inevitable result. The effects of ED maybe worse in developing countries setting like Tanzania because men’s sexual health has been forgotten. Men’s sexual and reproductive health needs are not in the national reproductive health strategic. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and factors associated with erectile dysfunction among adult men in Moshi municipality, northern Tanzania. Results The mean age of the 381 men was 39.6 (SD ±16.8) years. The overall prevalence of ED on this study was 29.7%. The severity of ED among study participants was; 13.4% (51), 9.7% (37), 3.7% (14), 2.9% (11) had mild, mild to moderate, moderate and severe erectile dysfunction respectively. Age 40–54 years (Adjusted OR 5.0, 95% CI 2.5–9.9), > 55 years (aOR 11.7, 95% CI 5.8–23.7) and hypertension (aOR 2.6, 95% CI 1.1–6.4) were independent predictors of ED respectively. Conclusion The prevalence of ED is high among men in Moshi municipal as 1 out of 3 men have ED. Age and hypertension were independent predictors of ED. These results point to the need of community awareness and education programs to raise awareness among men about existence of ED problem, its consequence and where they can get advice and care in this setting. Further, health providers taking care of hypertensive and men with DM should be equipped with knowledge and skills on early detection for ED and how to counsel and where to refer patients for help.

Signal Production

Many animals communicate by performing elaborate displays that are incredibly extravagant and wildly bizarre. So, how do these displays evolve? One idea is that innate sensory biases arbitrarily favour the emergence of certain display traits over others, leading to the design of an unusual display. Here, we study how physiological factors associated with signal production influence this process, a topic that has received almost no attention. We focus on a tropical frog, whose males compete for access to females by performing an elaborate waving display. Our results show that sex hormones like testosterone regulate specific display gestures that exploit a highly conserved perceptual system, evolved originally to detect ‘dangerous' stimuli in the environment. Accordingly, testosterone makes certain gestures likely to appear more perilous to rivals during combat. This suggests that hormone action can interact with effects of sensory bias to create an evolutionary optimum that guides how display exaggeration unfolds.
