Zusammenfassung:According to studies, the prevalence of ED varies from 35% to 90% among diabetic men. [1] However, little is known on the prevalence of ED in T2D men in our country. [...]the aim of the present study was to estimate the prevalence of ED in a sample of Greek T2D men. Multivariate logistic regression analysis, after adjustment for age, T2D duration, body mass index, HbA1c, smoking status, hypertension, antidiabetic treatment, and micro- and macrovascular complications showed that ED was associated positively with dyslipidemia (odds ratio [OR]:1.07, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01–1.16) and negatively with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (OR: 0.92, 95% CI: 0.86–0.99).
