Objective. The article attempts to analyze the nature of sexual dysfunctions in patients living in areas exposed to ionizing radiation as a result of the Chornobyl accident. Materials and methods. A study of sexual function was carried out in 186 people (group I) living in the territories of Kyiv (Polisske, Chornobyl, Ivankiv, Borodianka, Vyshhorod, Makariv districts) and Zhytomyr (Malyn and Korosten districts) regions. The control group consisted of persons who were born and lived on the territory of IvanoFrankivsk and Chernivtsi regions (group II, n = 123). Diagnostics was carried out on an outpatient basis in accordance with the standards of the WHO and the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. Results. Analyzing the obtained research results, a significantly larger number of patients with sexual dysfunction was identified in group I (82.3 %) than in group II (44.7 %) (р < 0.01). Psychopathological disorders disturbed, respectively, 60.2 % and 41.4 % (p < 0.01). Complaints of decreased libido were presented by 25.8 % of the surveyed men exposed to ionizing radiation, and 6.5 % of them were concerned about a sharp depression of libido. In group II patients, this indicator was 14.6 % and 3.3 %, respectively. The integral index of «libido» of the ICEF questionnaire revealed a statistically significant difference between the groups (9.23 ± 0.89 and 12.22 ± 1.26, respectively; р < 0.05). In patients exposed to ionizing radiation as a result of the Chornobyl accident, the concentration of testosterone decreases, and the content of FSH, LH, as well as globulin, which makes sex hormones, increases. Erectile dysfunction in patients of group I was detected in 58.1 % of men, and in patients of group II – 35.0 % (р < 0.01). The difference in the integral indicators of the ICEF questionnaire between the groups was 1.3 times behind the «libido» domain. For other domains – by 1.5–1.6 times. In men living in the territories of Kyiv and Zhytomyr regions, erectile dysfunction occurs earlier and is characterized by a more severe course than in people born and lived in the territory of Ivano-Frankivsk and Chernivtsi regions. Both in terms of low rates of normal erection (in patients of groups I and II, respectively 3.8 % and 13.3 %), and for high percentages of existing moderate/severe ED (respectively 71.0 % and 45.5 %), persons from group I are characterized by significantly worse data than persons from group II (р < 0.01). Orgasm pathology was found in 40.3 % of patients in group I and in 25.2 % of patients in group II (р < 0.01). The quality of life index according to the QoL index in the context of existing sexual disorders in group I of patients was 4.7 ± 0.4, in patients of group II – 3.9 ± 0.2 (р < 0.05). Conclusions. The data obtained indicate a tendency for a more significant violation of sexual functions in men who were born and lived in territories exposed to radioactive contamination as a result of the Chornobyl accident. Key words: Chornobyl accident, radioactively contaminated areas, men, sexual dysfunctions.

The Impact

: The prevalence of obesity around the globe is increasing at such an alarming rate that WHO consultation on obesity designated obesity as a major unattended public health problem worldwide. Obesity is associated with a greater risk of excessive fat related metabolic and endocrinal diseases associated with different set of illness and disabilities, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, kidney diseases, sleep apnea, arthritis, lung diseases and sexual disorders. Obesity is found to be associated with male and female sexual dysfunctions and several studies have indicated a positive correlation between obesity and sexual dysfunction among both males and females. The relationship between male obesity and sexual dysfunction has been widely discussed, whereas a very little emphasis is laid on relationship between obesity and female sexual dysfunctions. Sexual dysfunctions are common and affects 20-50% of obese women. Particularly, female sexual dysfunction is a multi-factorial problem, including organic and psychological aspects involved into it. These disorders not only affect physical health of women but to a greater extent mental health is also affected. Considering this point of view, present review is emphasized on the impact of obesity on female sexual dysfunctions.

Background: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is one of the most common psychosexual disorders in clinical practice, and it results in significant distress, interpersonal impairments, poor quality of life, and marital disharmony. However, there is limited research on ED in India. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the sociodemographic and clinical profile of patients presenting with ED. Method: Cross-sectional evaluation of patients with ED presenting to the psychosexual outpatient department (OPD) of psychiatry department in a tertiary care hospital was done on structured clinical pro forma, Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview, International Index of Erectile Function-5, Arizona Sexual Experience, Hamilton rating scale for depression, and Hamilton rating scale for anxiety. Results: The sample included 102 patients. The mean age was 33.38 years. The majority of the patients were married (81.4%), Hindu (82.4%), residing in a rural area (60.8%), and belonging to a nuclear family (62.7%). The majority of the patients had a moderate level of ED (50%) followed by mild-to-moderate ED (26.5%) and severe ED (23.5%). Premature ejaculation (46.1%) and depression (28.4%) were the most common sexual and psychiatric comorbidities. Obesity was common (62.7%), and only a minority had other metabolic dysfunction, namely dyslipidemia (7.8%), diabetes (5.9%), and hypertension (4.9%). Tobacco dependence and alcohol dependence were present in 37.3% and 6.9% cases, respectively. Conclusion: Young adults with moderate-to-severe ED were present for treatment at a tertiary center. Comorbidities of other sexual disorders, psychiatric disorders, and substance use are commonly encountered in such patients. Promotion of early help-seeking should be encouraged. Clinicians should thoroughly assess even the young patients for other sexual, psychiatric, and medical comorbidities.

The article gives the world views on the main types of sexual disorders among the male contingent and their interrelation with the phases of sexual reaction. The interrelation of the development of sexual dysfunctions under the influence of significant stress or psychoemotional overload or in the absence of any psychoneurological disorders, among which the leading place occupy border disorder, is shown. The necessity of therapeutic correction of affective pathology in the complex therapy of sexual dysfunctions is substantiated. The basic mechanisms of complex treatment of sexual dysfunctions and psychopathological manifestations are shown. In order to work out a more effective therapeutic complex using the Questionnaire International Erectile Function Index (IEFI), calculation of the duration of sexual intercourse (the so-called Intravaginal latency interval (ILI) and the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HDRS-17) were evaluated. 83 patients with sexual dysfunctions: 52 patients (1 group) with premature ejaculation (PE); 31 patients (2 groups) with erectile dysfunction (ED) (the presence of these sexual dysfunctions led to the development of anxiety-depressive and neurosis-like disorders, which was confirmed by the Hamilton Scales) and 45 patients (3 groups) with sexual dysfunctions that developed as a result of existing initial psychopathological or boundary disorders (BD). Each study group was divided into two subgroups (a and b), each of which used different therapies from each other. With the use of one or another therapeutic scheme, patients of each group received cognitive-behavioral psychotherapeutic correction, tadalafil, nootropic drugs (noofen or glycine) and antidepressants (fluoxetine or coaxiаl). The duration of the observation was 3 months. As a result of the study, improvement of the ejaculatory function (with an increase in the ILI score) was established, which significantly increased at each control examination. In the analysis of the dynamics of the overall indicator of the MIEF questionnaire after the therapy, improvement in sexual function was observed in all groups, but the best results were obtained in the ED group. The results of the HDRS questionnaire showed that after 3 months, patients in the PE group compared with the BD group were reliably less susceptible to depressive disorder, especially of a pronounced nature.

The aim: To systematize and bring the reader closer to knowledge about the occurrence of sexual disorders in people after heart transplantation based on available bibliography. Material and methods: A review of the literature on this topic from the last 30 years made with using the PubMed database, using a total of 17 articles. Conclusions: The incidence of sexual dysfunction (SD) is higher in heart recipients than in the general population and erectile dysfunction is the most common. When the symptoms of dysfunction occur before the transplant – they do not improve, rather they get worse, which reduces the improvement in the quality of life of these patients compared to patients without sexual dysfunction. Improvement in quality of life is observed in patients with SD after heart transplantation, but not as pronounced as in subjects without sexual dysfunction. Some patients notice an increase in libido, with the genital response being insufficient or completely disappearing, which results in a decrease in the quality of relationships between partners and a deterioration in the quality of life. The cause of SD in heart recipients is unclear, but it is associated with the type of immunosuppression used, the level of sexual activity and the state of health of patients prior to transplantation. Nowadays patients after ortotrophic heart transplant live longer and their quality of life improves, but not in sexual terms. The articles concerned almost exclusively men, that is why the topic requires exploration in subsequent research.

Abstract. Erectile dysfunction (ED) is an evolving health problem with growing incidence in the ageing male population with potentially predictive value for cardiovascular and other chronic diseases. ED shares the common cardiovascular risk factors. The aetiology of ED is numerous including neurogenic, psychogenic, arteriogenic, and venogenic reasons. The origin of arteriogenic ED is frequently atherosclerosis. Patients not adequately responding to conservative measures including oral medication are often referred to further vascular diagnostics and therapy. At present, the refinements in endovascular therapy allow for minimal-invasive revascularization of erection-related arteries. The role of endovascular therapy in the complex framework of the multifactorial causes of ED requires further scientific scrutiny.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) and premature ejaculation (PE) are among the most common male sexual dysfunctions. Meta-analytical studies and systematic reviews describe the frequently comorbid appearance of these two pathologies, being correlated with less favorable experiences with young females. People affected by these pathologies are more likely to have anxiety or depression and have a lower prevalence of organic comorbidities such as diabetes, high blood pressure or dyslipidemia (1,2).

Aim. Study of clinical and psychopathological characteristics in women with sexual dysfunctions and mental disorders of the psychotic level. Material and methods. Clinical-psychopathological and sexological methods were used in the work. The results were processed using the licensed program Statistica 10.0 for Windows. At the first stage, 134 women (mean age 43.115.3 years) were examined who had inpatient treatment in the department for persons with non-psychotic mental disorders. At the second stage, the study involved 89 women (mean age 35.212.2 years), who were diagnosed with sexual dysfunctions. Results. Clinical and psychopathological indicators were studied, clinical, psychopathological and sexological analysis of sexual dysfunctions in women with non-psychotic mental disorders was carried out, taking into account the diagnostic criteria of the International Classification of Diseases-10. Three groups of patients were identified: (1) a group of women with sexual dysfunctions caused by non-psychotic mental disorders; (2) a group of patients in whom non-psychotic mental disorders were formed against the background of primary sexual pathology; (3) a group of patients in whom non-psychotic mental disorders accompany sexual dysfunctions. Conclusions. Sexual disorders in the studied groups are characterized by the predominance of libido disorder in the first group and the second group, as well as the predominance of dyspareunia in the third. There were no significant differences in the duration of sexual dysfunctions in the groups, which must be taken into account when choosing therapeutic and rehabilitation measures.

Aim. The present study aimed to assess the effects of Nano Leo, a prosexual nutrient formulation, on libido, erection, and orgasm in patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). Methods. This was a prospective, single-center, phase IV efficacy study. Patients received two capsules for 7 days and thereafter one capsule through 90 days. Main outcome measures: primary endpoint was change in erectile function assessed using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) questionnaire. Secondary endpoints included improvement in testosterone levels, FSH, LH, and prolactin levels; seminal parameters; and overall quality of life (QoL). Results. Our study included 99 men (mean age 32.2 ± 4.71 years). Mean erectile function domain score increased from 18.9 ± 5.67 at baseline to 23.7 ± 4.01 on day 90 (P<0.001). Similar improvements were observed in orgasmic function, sexual desire, intercourse satisfaction, and overall satisfaction domains of IIEF score which was seen as early as day 30. Improved IIEF corroborated with improvement in all QoL domains. From baseline to day 90, treatment with Nano Leo increased testosterone levels (5.04 ± 2.22 vs. 5.57 ± 1.53 ng/mL, P<0.001). Seminal parameters like sperm concentration (44.07 ± 48.28 vs. 56.21 ± 50.45 million/mL) and total sperm count per ejaculate (130.40 ± 156.05 vs. 142.5 ± 161.23 million/mL) significantly increased on day 90 compared to baseline. No changes were observed in hepatic and renal function parameters, and no adverse events were reported which promise the safety of the product, Nano Leo. Conclusion. Nano Leo showed improved libido, erection, and orgasm as evaluated by IIEF and QoL and was well tolerated. Therefore, Nano Leo could be an effective and safe pronutrient supplement in managing ED.
