Abstract

Aim: The present study was planned to access CAD risk in T2 DM patients with erectile dysfunction. Methods: In this cross-sectional observational study 100 diabetic patients (who visited to hospital attending medicine OPD) recruited which was diagnosed according to ADA revised criteria. Results: Out of 100 diabetic patient ED (Erectile Dysfunction) was present in 36 (36%) and ED was absent in 64 (64%). Maximum frequency of moderate ED 43% was found then severe ED 33%, mild to moderate ED-17% and mild ED-7%. The age showed insignificant (p>0.05) relation with ED. Prevalence of ED was 36% in diabetic population. Duration of the diabetes, FB(Fasting Blood Sugar) and PPBS(Post prandial Blood Sugar) showed a significant correlation (p<0.05) with ED. Age, HbA1C, ASCVD (Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular disease) risk showed insignificant (p>0.05) relation with ED. Chi square statistical analysis revealed a significant relation (p<0.05) between presence of severe V in relation with age. Maximum patients aged 46-55 years in moderate ED, severe ED found maximum in 35-45 years age group. BMI showed insignificant (p>0.05) relation with ED. Conclusion: Poor glycemic control is a risk factor for ED. Fasting blood sugar and postprandial blood sugar showed significant (p<0.05) relation with ED. HbA1c show an insignificant correlation (p>0.05) with ED. Duration of diabetes have been associated with an increased risk of ED.
