Sexual dysfunction in dialytic patients. A prospective cross-sectional observational study in two hemodialysis centers
2020
Objectives: Incidence and prevalence of patients in dialytic therapy increased considerably in recent years. The onset of new issues, once overshadowed, linked to a lower quality of life like sexual dysfunction became increasingly common. The first study in this area, dating back to the 1970s, shows the high prevalence of sexual dysfunction among patients in dialytic therapy of both sexes. Later studies proved an association of sexual dysfunction with psyche disorders, anxiety, depression and lack of self-confidence. The aim of this study is to describe the incidence of male and female sexual main dysfunctions, the latter not least in literature, in patients in hemodialytic therapy. With th…
Epidemiology of sexual dysfunction in the male population.
2006
Sexual dysfunctions have found an increasing attention in recent epidemiological studies of the ageing male. The purpose of this paper is to review the prevalence of sexual dysfunctions and risk factors based on community samples. Studies have not only demonstrated a strong age-related incline of erectile dysfunction (ED), but also of ejaculatory and orgasmic disorders (particularly a reduced or absent ejaculation). Despite a declining sexual desire, sexual interest remains present in old age. Lower urinary tract symptoms have been identified as strong risk factors for ED along with cardiovascular, metabolic, psychiatric disorders and lifestyle factors. The wide range of prevalence rate est…

PURPOSE: Ejaculatory dysfunction (EjD) and erectile dysfunction after cancer treatment are clinically important complications, but their exact prevalence by various kinds of cancer site and type of treatment is unknown. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine the available evidence and provide pooled estimates for prevalence of EjD and erectile dysfunction in relation to all cancer sites and identify characteristics associated with EjD in cancer patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of cross-sectional and case-control studies. We searched 4 electronic databases (Medline®, CINAHL, PsychInfo and Embase®) until July 22, 2…

Sexology as a challenge to the health care system: the Norwegian version
2006
Originally published in Sexologies,Elsevier. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.sexol.2005.11.009 Medical doctors and psychologist represent the largest groups of professionals working with sexological problems in Norway, with one third each. The last third consists of different health and educational professionals. Forty-three percent reported that they have undergone some training programs in sexology. This is the lowest educational level in all the countries surveyed in the context of the "Euro-Sexo" study. Seventy-one percent declared that they have had individual supervision and 49% had group supervision in sexology. 93.2% are in clinical practice, but for most of them, this is a minor part o…
Therapy of erectile dysfunction (ED) with sildenafil improves quality of life (QoL) and partnership (QoP)
2004
According to Maslow [1] and others, higher levels of individual and social functioning can only be achieved and maintained, when more basic and particularly physiological levels of functioning are satisfactory and healthy (Fig. 1). Satisfactory partnership and sexuality are core aspects of human wellbeing through the complete course of adulthood. Sexual activity is a major determinant of sexual satisfaction [2]. In men and women, sexual dysfunction as a disorder of sexual desire, arousal, or orgasm, and/or sexual pain results in personal distress and reduced quality of life and interpersonal relationships [3, 4, 5, 6]. Erectile dysfunction (ED) as the inability to attain or maintain penile …
Ageing and sexuality
2016
Abstract Sexuality is a dimension that concerns human health with profound implications not only in the biological and psychological aspects, but also in the social and cultural dimensions, affecting all ages of life. Sexuality in old age is still conditioned by biases, prejudices and from a stereotyped vision, which considered older people as “asexual”, in spite of several studies and surveys showing that older persons have sexual potential to express. In population surveys, a fair number of men and women aged over 60 years reported having sex at least once a month. The most influential predictor of sexual activity seems to be the physical health in older men, and the quality of the relati…
