ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the association of erectile dysfunction (ED) with metabolic syndrome ( MS) and the total testosterone ( tT) level in young and middle-aged men.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>This study included 154 organic ED outpatients aged 20 -59 years and 103 age-matched men with normal sexual life. We obtained their waist circumference ( WC) , blood pressure ( BP) , fasting blood glucose ( FBG) , triglyceride ( TG) , high density lipoprotein ( HDL) , tT, IIEF -5 score, erectile function indexes and other relevant variables, and compared them between the ED and non-ED groups as well as between the ED patients with MS and those without MS.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The prevalence of MS was significantly higher in the ED patients than in the non-ED males ( 40. 9 vs 17.4%, P < 0. 01). Statistically significant differences were found between the ED and non-ED groups in WC ( [90. 80 ±4. 90] vs [87. 70 ±4. 60] em, P <0.01), SBP ([134.40±14.40] vs [129.90±12.40] mmHg, P<O.OS), DBP ([86.20±7.80] vs [83.60±8.60] mmHg, P <0.05), FBG ( [5.48 ±1.02] vs [5. 11 ±0. 91] mmol, P <0. 01), HDL ( [ 1.12 ±0. 27] vs [ 1. 26 ±0. 29] mmol, P < 0. 01) , and tT ( [ 15. 98 ± 6. 55] vs [ 17. 95 ± 7. 39] mmol, P < 0. 05) , as well as between the ED patients with MS and those without MS in such erectile function indexes as tT ( [ 14.49 ±6. 23] vs [ 17.01 ±6. 60] mmol, P <0. 05), erectile penile circumference ( [9. 67 ± 1.09] vs [10.16 ± 1.01] cm, P <0. 01), erectile penile length ( [ 10.40 ± 1. 20] vs [ 10.79 ± 1. 07] cm, P <0. 05), glans temperature ( [ 31. 33 ± 0. 65] vs [ 31. 80 ± 0. 82] °C , P < 0. 01) , and mean axial hardness of the penis ( [ 332. 60 ± 137. 90] vs [ 419. 20 ± 145. 80] g, P < 0. 01 ) . WC was significantly correlated with the incidence of ED ( P < 0. 01 ) .</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The prevalence of MS is significantly higher in young and middle-aged ED patients than in normal males, and MS is associated with a lower testosterone level and poorer erectile performance. Central obesity is closely correlated with ED in young and middle-aged men.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the best mean for the treatment of varicocele. Methods The clini-cal effects of the high ligation of spermatic vein under the small incisal opening of the poritneum meta abdom-inal membrane and the ligation of spermatic vein under the laparoscope for the varicocele were retrospectively reviewed. The operating time, the postoperative days and the cost of hospitalization were compared of the two methods. Results Comparing with the group of operation and the group of laparoscope. Among the 158 vat-icocele patients with unilateral or bilateral varicocele, there was not statistical difference in the operating time between the two methods (P > 0. 05), whi]e there was significant difference in the postoperative days and the cost of hospitalization(P <0. 05). Conclusions When the bilateral varicoceles were simultaneously ligated, the high ligation of spermatic vein under the laparoscope was the best selection; if the unilateral varicocele was highly ligated or the patients were unconditional or the patients were not fit for laparoscopic operation, the high ligation of spermatic vein under the small incisal opening of peritoneum was the best operating method.
