RESUMEN
Background: Premature ejaculation is the most common cause of sexual dysfunction. There is no consensus on the treatment protocol due to poor understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Therefore, the present pilot study was conducted to compare the efficacy of topical eutectic mixture for premature ejaculation (TEMPE) spray with lidocaine gel for the treatment of premature ejaculation. Methods: After obtaining ethics approval and written informed consent, 100 patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included. Baseline values of intravaginal ejaculation time (IELT) and international index of erectile function (IIEF) were recorded. Patients were randomly assigned into group A (lidocaine plus prilocaine spray) and group B (lidocaine gel). After 4 weeks of treatment IELT and IIEF score were recorded. The findings were noted and analysed. Results: Both the groups were similar in terms of demographic and baseline characteristics. There was a significantly higher improvement in IELT and IIEF score following treatment in group A as compared to group B. The incidence of side effects was lower in group A as compared to group B. Conclusions: We recommend that the use of TEMPE spray for the treatment of premature ejaculation as it is better than lidocaine gel.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the relationship between irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and premature ejaculation (PE) from 5-HT; To predict the natural drugs with therapeutic effect.Methods:Targets related to IBS and PE were screened in the GeneCards, DisGeNET, TTD, OMIM, DrugBank databases. After removing duplicates, the two disease targets were intersected and imported into STRING platform, and the protein interaction network between IBS and PE targets related to 5-HT receptor was obtained. GO enrichment analysis was carried out on the intersected targets by R language, and Coremine Medical platform was used for predicting natural drugs.Results:5-HT1A, 5-HT1B, 5-HT2A, 5-HT2C and 5-HT3A were the common targets related to 5-HT in IBS and PE. GO function enrichment yielded 250 gene function related information, mainly enriched in serotonin receptor signaling pathways, cell response to dopamine, and response to dopamine. The prediction of natural drugs obtained 14 kinds of Chinese materia medica, including Nelumbinis Semen, Nelumbinis Rhizomatis Nodus, Nelumbinis Receptaculum, Nelumbinis Stamen, Nelumbinis Folium, Nelumbinis Plumula, Ginkgo Semen, and Ginkgo Folium.Conclusions:Abnormal 5-HT levels can affect gastrointestinal motility, ejaculation latency, and glans sensitivity. Elevated central 5-HT levels are a common pathogenesis of IBS and PE. The interaction between receptors such as 5-HT1A and 5-HT3A and 5-HT can regulate gastrointestinal motility and secretion activities, intestinal nervous system, and reduce intestinal hypersensitivity; increasing the sensitivity of the 5-HT1A receptor can reduce the ejaculation threshold and promote ejaculation, while increasing the sensitivity of the 5-HT2C receptor can increase the ejaculation threshold.
RESUMEN
The theory of "brain-heart-kidney-semen chamber" axis is proposed based on the basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine， the modern physiological characteristics of men's diseases， and clinical practice. According to this theory， dysfunctions of the brain， heart， kidney， and semen chamber are the core mechanisms for the occurrence of premature ejaculation， and the loss of control of the opening and closing of the seminal orifices due to the dysfunction of the semen chamber is the final link in the occurrence of premature ejaculation. The treatment of premature ejaculation based on the theory of "brain-heart-kidney-essence chamber" axis highlights the overall regulation of the Zang-fu organs involved in the disease， while focusing on the simultaneous treatment of the mind and body. By exploring the biological basis of the "brain-heart-kidney-essence chamber" axis and premature ejaculation， we propose that the biological basis of premature ejaculation and the axis is mainly related to the function decline of the local brain area， neuromodulation malfunction， central neurotransmitter imbalance， endocrine disorders， and enhanced sensory afferents of the penis. This study aims at providing a new approach for the prevention and treatment of premature ejaculation by traditional Chinese medicine and a scientific basis for the development of more effective therapeutic methods.
RESUMEN
At present，there is a lack of consensus on the diagnosis， treatment and management of erectile dysfunction（ED）/premature ejaculation（PE） comorbidity in China. To develop a clinical diagnosis and treatment strategy for ED/PE comorbidity， according to the guidelines for ED/PE comorbidity published in China and abroad in recent years and combined with the clinical practice of many urology and andrology research units in China，the clinical experts organized by the Branch of Sexology of Traditional Chinese Medicine， China Sexology Association formed this consensus through consensus drafting， academic review， expert correspondence interview and full discussion at the review meeting based on the existing evidence-based medical evidence. Based on the clinical experience of doctors，research evidence，patients' wishes and living environment factors，this consensus comprehensively evaluates the diagnosis and treatment norms of ED/PE comorbidity with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine，aiming at the diagnosis and treatment orientation and value of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine，so as to benefit the whole process management of more patients. Traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis pays attention to the collection of four diagnostic information of inspection， auscultation， inquiry and palpation， and carries out pattern differentiation of six meridians， pattern differentiation of Wei-defence， Qi， Ying nutrients and blood， and pattern differentiation of zang-fu organs as described in the Shanghanlun （《伤寒论》）. Based on the synergy of traditional Chinese and Western medicine， the advantages of the overall regulation of traditional Chinese medicine are brought into play， and the individualized treatment of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine is implemented. Internal treatment of traditional Chinese medicine is based on the pattern differentiation of yin and yang described in Section Ⅱ， Chapter Ⅳ Syndrome Differentiation of Surgical Diseases in Surgery of Traditional Chinese Medicine. As stated in Leijing： Yinyanglei （《类经·阴阳类》）， "Human diseases ... must have their roots， either in Yin or in Yang. Although there are many pathological changes， their roots are one." Huangdineijing：Suwen： Yinyangyingxiangdalun（《黄帝内经·素问·阴阳应象大论》） states that "Those who are good at diagnosis should look at the color and pulse， and differentiate Yin and Yang syndromes first." This consensus describes the yang and yin syndromes according to the principle that "Yin and Yang syndromes differentiation should be the priority in the pattern differentiation by the eight principles." In addition， for the syndromes of ED/PE comorbidity， based on the same treatment of different diseases， Chaihu Guizhitang， Wenjingtang and Buzhong Yiqitang are used， which can be referred to.
RESUMEN
Abstract Background Open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair can lead to sexual dysfunction (SD) in men. Objectives To determine the prevalence of SD following open AAA repair, explore whether surgical techniques for aortic reconstruction can have a differential impact on the occurrence of SD, and summarize current knowledge in this field. Methods Retrospective review of 100 patients submitted to open AAA repair between 1995 and 2010 in a quaternary center. Sexual dysfunction was assessed according to questions from the modified International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF), considering the condition before surgical repair and 3 months after surgery. The chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, and Student's t test were used for statistical analyses. Results 100 patients were included (mean age = 66.4 years old). Normal sexual activity, no sexual activity, erectile dysfunction, and retrograde ejaculation with preserved erectile function were found in 36%, 21%, 18%, and 24% of patients, respectively. The group of patients with no sexual activity was older (mean age = 72.3 years old vs 64.5 years old, p < 0.001). Erectile dysfunction prevalence was higher in patients submitted to an aorto-bifemoral bypass (p = 0.032). Retrograde ejaculation was more frequent in patients submitted to an aorto-aortic bypass (p = 0.007). Conclusions Sexual function is a frequent condition intimately associated with the aortic reconstruction technique. The literature review found contradictory results regarding whether the endovascular approach is protective compared with open repair, but clearly demonstrated the importance of techniques targeting preservation of the internal iliac artery and the superior hypogastric plexus.
Resumo Contexto A correção aberta de aneurisma da aorta abdominal (AAA) pode causar disfunção sexual (DS) em homens. Objetivos Determinar a prevalência de DS após correção aberta de AAA, determinar se a técnica de reconstrução aórtica pode estar correlacionada com o surgimento de DS e resumir os achados mais relevantes da literatura relacionados a esse tema. Métodos Estudo retrospectivo de todos os pacientes submetidos a correção aberta de AAA entre 1995 e 2010 num centro quaternário. A DS foi avaliada por meio de questões baseadas no escore International Index of Erection Function no pré-operatório e 3 meses após a cirurgia. A análise estatística foi realizada com os testes do qui-quadrado, exato de Fisher e t de Student. Resultados Cem pacientes foram incluídos (idade média = 66.4 anos). Atividade sexual normal, atividade sexual ausente, disfunção erétil (DE) e ejaculação retrógrada (ER) com função erétil preservada foram observadas em 36%, 21%, 18% e 24% dos pacientes, respectivamente. O grupo de pacientes com atividade sexual ausente foi significativamente mais velho (idade média = 72.3 anos vs. 64.5 anos, p < 0.001). A DE foi mais prevalente em pacientes submetidos a enxerto aorto-bifemoral (p = 0.032), enquanto a ER foi mais prevalente em pacientes submetidos a enxerto aorto-aórtico (p = 0.007). Conclusões A DS é uma condição frequente e intimamente associada à reconstrução aórtica empregada. A literatura apresenta resultados contraditórios sobre qual correção de AAA (aberta ou endovascular) resulta em mais DS, mas demonstra a importância de técnicas com preservação das artérias hipogástricas e do plexo hipogástrico superior.

After 3-month treatment, the latency of dorsal nerve somatosensory evoked potential (DNSEP), glans penis somatosensory evoked potential (GPSEP), intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT), premature ejaculation diagnostic tool score (PEDT), and spouse sexual satisfaction score were collected. 【Results】 After treatment, IELT, PEDT, spouse’s sexual life satisfaction score, DNSEP and GPSEP of the three groups were significantly improved (P0.05). 【Conclusion】 Low-frequency neuromuscular electrical stimulation is effective in the treatment of penile hypersensitive premature ejaculation, and the combination of local anesthetics is more effective, which is worthy of clinical application and promotion.
RESUMEN
【Objective】 To evaluate the efficacy and safety of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors alone or in combination with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) compared with SSRIs alone in the treatment of comorbidity of erectile dysfunction (ED) and premature ejaculation (PE). 【Methods】 The clinical randomized controlled trials of ED and PE comorbidity treated with PDE5 inhibitors alone or in combination with SSRIs were searched from database inception to Sep.2022, in CNKI, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Wanfang Database, cqVIP Database, SinoMed and Yiigle. The intravaginal ejaculatory latency time(IELT), score of International Index of Erectile Function 5 (IIEF-5) and adverse reaction rate were analyzed with RevMan 5.4.1 software. 【Results】 A total of9 studies involving 793 patients were included. Meta analysis showed that compared with SSRIs alone, PDE5 inhibitors alone or in combination with SSRIs yielded better results in IELT [MD=1.99, 95%CI(1.51-2.46), P<0.001] and higher IIEF-5 score [MD=4.61, 95%CI(3.68-5.55), P<0.001] , but no increase in adverse events [RR=0.99, 95%CI(0.74-1.31), P=0.92] . 【Conclusion】 In the treatment of ED and PE comorbidity, priority should be given to ED or both ED and PE, which can produce better efficacy without increasing the adverse effects.
RESUMEN
【Objective】 To explore the effects of sexual function-preserving 450 nm blue laser vaporization of the prostate on the postoperative sexual function of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety and feasibility of this procedure. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 20 BPH patients treated in our department during Jan. and Mar.2023 were analyzed. The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Quality of Life Scale (QoL) score, maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), residual urine volume (PVR) and International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) data were compared before and after the operation. The operation time, postoperative catheter indwelling time, and hospital stay were recorded. The ejaculation status 2 months after operation was followed up. 【Results】 All 20 patients completed the operation successfully. The operation time was (13.41±4.30) min, catheter indwelling time (1.2±0.4) d, and hospital stay (3.0±0.6) d. The IPSS, QoL, PVR and Qmax data 1 month after operation were significantly improved compared with those before operation (P0.05). 【Conclusion】 The modified 450 nm blue laser vaporization of the prostate can improve the urination symptoms of BPH patients while retaining sexual function. It is a safe and feasible technique for BPH patients who have sexual needs, and provides an alternative surgical approach for those looking to preserve sexual function.
RESUMEN
Premature ejaculation (PE) is the most common male sexual dysfunction with a high incidence, which seriously affects the relationship between a husband and wife and family harmony. Drug therapy is a first-line treatment for PE patients with premature ejaculation, and has achieved good efficacy, but the clinically available drugs are single and the abandonment rate is high. Coupled with the ineffective treatment of some patients, new drug research and development is imminent. This paper systematically reviews the current status of drug treatment for premature ejaculation, focusing on the research and development of new drugs and research progress in order to provide a reference for clinicians.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical value of Longbeisan application at Shenque （CV 8） combined with oral administration of Chinese medicine in the treatment of premature ejaculation （PE）. MethodA total of 98 PE patients treated in the andrology department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine at the same time period were randomly assigned into an observation group and a control group， with 49 patients in each group. The observation group received Longbeisan application at Shenque （CV 8） combined with oral treatment of Chinese medicine according to syndrome differentiation， and the control group was treated with dapoxetine hydrochloride tablets. The treatment in both groups lasted for 8 weeks. The intravaginal ejaculatory latency time （IELT）， Chinese index of premature ejaculation-5 （CIPE-5） score， patient's sexual life satisfaction， spouse's sexual life satisfaction， effective rate， and adverse reaction incidence were compared between the two groups. ResultAfter treatment， the observation group had higher total effective rate than the control group ［（85.71% （42/49） vs. 67.35% （33/49）， χ2=6.262， P<0.05］. The IELT， CIPE-5 score， and patient's and spouse's satisfaction scores after treatment increased compared with those before treatment （P<0.01）， and the increases were more significant in the observation group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The clinical effect of the observation group was better than that of the control group. During the treatment， 7 （7/49，14.29%） patients in the control group and 2 ，2/49，4.08%） patients in the observation group showed adverse reactions， which indicated the safety of the observation group was better than that of the control group （χ2=9.000， P<0.05）. In the follow-up period， 11 （11/49，22.45%） patients in the control group and 3 （3/49，6.12%） patients in the observation group showed aggravation of symptoms， which meant that the observation group had better lasting effect （χ2=0.317， P<0.05）. ConclusionLongbeisan application at Shenque （CV 8） combined with oral administration of Chinese medicine has better clinical effect， stronger safety， and longer effect than dapoxetine hydrochloride in the treatment of PE.
RESUMEN
Selective dorsal neurotomy (SDN) is a surgical treatment for primary premature ejaculation (PE), but there is still no standard surgical procedure for selecting the branches of the dorsal penile nerves to be removed. We performed this study to explore the value of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) of the penile sensory-evoked potential (PSEP) for standard surgical procedures in SDN. One hundred and twenty primary PE patients undergoing SDN were selected as the PE group and 120 non-PE patients were selected as the normal group. The PSEP was monitored and compared between the two groups under both natural and general anesthesia (GA) states. In addition, patients in the PE group were randomly divided into the IONM group and the non-IONM group. During SDN surgery, PSEP parameters of the IONM group were recorded and analyzed. The differences in PE-related outcome measurements between the perioperative period and 3 months' postoperation were compared for the PE patients, and the differences in effectiveness and complications between the IONM group and the non-IONM group were compared. The results showed that the average latency of the PSEP in the PE group was shorter than that in the normal group under both natural and GA states (P < 0.001). Three months after surgery, the significant effective rates in the IONM and non-IONM groups were 63.6% and 34.0%, respectively (P < 0.01), and the difference in complications between the two groups was significant (P < 0.05). IONM might be useful in improving the short-term therapeutic effectiveness and reducing the complications of SDN.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of dapoxetine hydrochloride for the treatment of primary premature ejaculation when taken on time and on demand.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled study. Patients with primary premature ejaculation diagnosed at the Andrology Outpatient Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University between September 2018 and June 2019 were included. Inclusion criteria included ①non-homosexual patients aged≥18 years, ②regular sexual partner and rapport relationship with their sexual partner for more than 1 year, ③no serotonin reuptake inhibitors application within 3 months before treatment, ④ejaculated within 2 minutes of penile entry into the vagina that lasts>6 months, ⑤on participation in other similar trials in the past 6 months, ⑥had sexual intercourse≥2 times/week. Exclusion criteria included ①erection hardness score<3 points, ②malformation or dysplasia of reproductive organs, ③genitourinary infection, ④patients with severe heart disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, ⑤hypogonadism, ⑥allergy to dapoxetine hydrochloride and excipients, ⑦ patients with moderate or severe liver damage. The enrolled patients were divided into an on-time medication group and an on-demand medication group according to the randomized number table method. Patients took dapoxetine hydrochloride 30 mg/time, once a day, immediately after dinner in the on-time medication group, and the patients took dapoxetine hydrochloride 30 mg/time 2-3 h before intercourse in the on-demand medication group. The latency of intravaginal ejaculation (IELT), the score of the diagnostic tool for premature ejaculation (PEDT), the score of premature ejaculation index (IPE), and the score of anxiety level (SAS) of the two groups were observed within 8 weeks of medication intaking and 8 weeks of medication withdraw.Results:A total of 136 patients were enrolled, and finally 88 completed the 8 weeks treatment, including 50 patients (73.53%) in the on-time medication group and 38 patients (55.88%) in the on-demand medication group. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of patient adherence ( P = 0.048). There were no significant differences in pre-treatment IELT [(2.23 ± 1.81) min vs. (1.80 ± 1.51) min], PEDT scores [(16.52 ± 1.54) vs. (16.84 ± 1.59)], IPE scores [satisfaction (32.67 ± 7.36) vs. (32.37±5.90), control (23.31 ± 5.48) vs. (22.97 ± 4.82), pain severity (36.43 ± 3.51) vs. (35.82 ± 3.27)], and SAS scores [(51.80 ± 6.93) vs. (53.82 ± 4.47)] between the on-time medication group and on-demand medication group ( P>0.05). After 8 weeks of treatment for patients in the on-time versus on-demand medication groups, the IELT [(5.45 ± 2.64) min vs. (5.01 ± 2.31) min], PEDT scores [(13.68 ± 2.15) vs. (14.92 ± 9.39)], IPE scores [satisfaction (42.58 ± 5.13) vs. (43.39 ± 4.76), control (31.86 ± 4.49) vs. (32.75 ± 5.43), pain severity (62.94 ± 4.07) vs. s (61.22 ± 4.25)], and SAS score [(49.70 ± 4.16) vs. (51.66 ± 4.65)] were not statistically different ( P>0.05). However, the differences were statistically significant when compared with those at the initial consultation ( P<0.05). After 8 weeks of drug withdrawal, the scores of IELT, PEDT and IPE in the two groups were not significantly different from those before treatment( P>0.05). Conclusions:Taking dapoxetine hydrochloride on time and on demand can effectively alleviate the symptoms and anxiety of patients with primary premature ejaculation, and the compliance of the on-time medication group was better. Premature ejaculation symptoms recur after long-term discontinuation of the drug.
RESUMEN
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of life of patients with lifelong and acquired premature ejaculation and to examine its relationship with depression and anxiety. METHODS: Between February 2017 and January 2018, a total of 175 patients with premature ejaculation and 132 control men who applied to the urology department of the training and research hospital with the complaint of Premature Ejaculation were included. Patients were divided into three groups according to International Society for Sexual Medicine (ISSM) criteria as follows: Group 1, lifelong premature ejaculation; Group 2, acquired premature ejaculation, and Group 3, control group without premature ejaculation. A detailed medical history of patients was obtained and physical examinations were performed. Intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT) was recorded and patients were administered International Erectile Function Index-5 (IIEF-5), Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool (PEDT), Sexual Health Inventory for Men (SHIM), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)-1 and STAI-2, and Short Form-36 (SF-36). RESULTS: The mean mental component score (MCS) of the SF-36 was 51.65±6.57 in the lifelong premature ejaculation group, 49.33±8.65 in the acquired premature ejaculation group, and 61.12±11.09 in the control group (p<0.0001). The mean physical component score (PCS) was 50.99±7.43 in the lifelong premature ejaculation group, 48.32±11.58 in the acquired premature ejaculation group, and 55.17±8.10 in the control group (p<0.0001). Quality of life of premature ejaculation patients as assessed by SF-36 was lower in the subscales of physical functioning, general health perception, vitality, and role limitations due to emotional functioning, compared to the control group. CONCLUSIONS: Lifelong and acquired premature ejaculation patients deteriorate their quality of life: the deterioration in these patients' quality of life also negatively affects their depression and anxiety states.
RESUMEN
Experimental autoimmune prostatitis (EAP)-induced persistent inflammatory immune response can significantly upregulate the expression of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN). However, the mechanism has not yet been elucidated. Herein, we screened out the target prostate-derived inflammation cytokines (PDICs) by comparing the inflammatory cytokine levels in peripheral blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) between EAP rats and their controls. After identifying the target PDIC, qualified males in initial copulatory behavior testing (CBT) were subjected to implanting tubes onto bilateral PVN. Next, they were randomly divided into four subgroups (EAP-1, EAP-2, Control-1, and Control-2). After 1-week recovery, EAP-1 rats were microinjected with the target PDIC inhibitor, Control-1 rats were microinjected with the target PDIC, while the EAP-2 and Control-2 subgroups were only treated with the same amount of artificial CSF (aCSF). Results showed that only interleukin-1β(IL-1β) had significantly increased mRNA-expression in the prostate of EAP rats compared to the controls (P < 0.001) and significantly higher protein concentrations in both the serum (P = 0.001) and CSF (P < 0.001) of the EAP groups compared to the Control groups. Therefore, IL-1β was identified as the target PDIC which crosses the blood-brain barrier, thereby influencing the central nervous system. Moreover, the EAP-1 subgroup displayed a gradually prolonged ejaculation latency (EL) in the last three CBTs (all P < 0.01) and a significantly lower expression of NMDA NR1 subunit in the PVN (P = 0.043) compared to the respective control groups after a 10-day central administration of IL-1β inhibitors. However, the Control-1 subgroup showed a gradually shortened EL (P < 0.01) and a significantly higher NR1 expression (P = 0.004) after homochronous IL-1β administration. Therefore, we identified IL-1β as the primary PDIC which shortens EL in EAP rats. However, further studies should be conducted to elucidate the specific molecular mechanisms through which IL-1β upregulates NMDA expression.

RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Introduction: Tramadol has been used for the treatment of premature ejaculation, however, the studies published for the same are not well designed. The primary objective of this study was to explore the literature pertaining to the use of tramadol in patients with PE to determine its safety and efficacy in this population. Materials ande methods: Systematic literature search of various electronic databases was conducted to include all the randomized studies and quasi-randomized studies. Standard PRISMA (Preferred reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-analysis) guidelines were pursued for this review and study protocol was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42019123381). Results: Out of 9 studies included in this review, 5 were randomized controlled trials, and rests of the 4 studies were quasi-randomized studies. Tramadol resulted in significantly higher improvement of IELT with the mean difference (MD) of 139.6 seconds and confidence interval (CI) 106.5-172.6 seconds with a p-value of p <0.00001. All dosages except 25mg fared well as compared to placebo. Tramadol fared better than placebo at 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months after initiation of therapy as compared to the placebo. Tramadol group had reported a significantly higher number of adverse events with treatment as compared to placebo but none of them were serious. Conclusion: Tramadol appears to be an effective drug for the management of PE with a low propensity for serious adverse events. However, evidence obtained from this study is of low to moderate quality. Furthermore, effective dose and duration of therapy remain elusive.

In 1982, total mesorectal excision(TME) was proposed by Professor R. J. Heald, which was a milestone-style for rectal cancer surgery. The concept of TME has reduced the local recurrence rate of mid-low rectal cancer (MLRC) significantly, thus becomes the gold standard for MLRC surgery. However, the incidence of urogenital dysfunction after TME remains high, among which urinary dysfunction reaches 30%-60%, and sexual dysfunction reaches 50%-70%. In recent years, studies have shown that the removal of Denonvilliers' fascia (DVF) during TME is an important cause of postoperative urination and sexual dysfunction. Therefore, DVF preserving total mesorectal excision (iTME) has been recognized by more and more surgical experts. On the basis of existing literature and clinical practice, we organize experts to discuss and vote, put forward recommendations for several issues of iTME, and finally formulate this expert consensus. The formulation of this consensus aims to increase surgeons' awareness of the value and functional protection of DVF during TME surgery, clarify the indications and contraindications of iTME, and standardize the procedure of iTME, so as to reduce postoperative urination and sexual dysfunction and improve the quality of life of patients with MLRC. The level of evidence and recommendation of this consensus is determined by Grading Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE), and the consensus content is determined through expert voting and Delphi method.

ABSTRACT Ejaculation is controlled by both the sympathetic and parasympathetic system and consists of an emission and expulsion phase. Ejaculation latency time is regulated by the sympathetic system. Hypothetically, by reducing ejaculatory latency time, spontaneous ejaculation can occur. Extending the duration of ejaculation is a well-known side effect of antidepressants, especially selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors and noradrenergic reuptake inhibitors. Adrenergic drugs are sometimes used as treatment for delayed ejaculation. A spontaneous ejaculation due to the use of these drugs has rarely been reported. Although most reports of spontaneous ejaculations are related to the use of venlafaxine and reboxetine, this study is based on a case of the side effect of duloxetine.

PURPOSE: To investigate the association of erectile dysfunction (ED), premature ejaculation (PE), and chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) in men with late-onset hypogonadism (LOH).MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed the data of 408 enrolled men between January 2014 and January 2019. All participants completed the Androgen Deficiency in the Aging Male (ADAM), international index of erectile function-5 (IIEF-5), National Institutes of Health chronic prostatitis symptom index (NIH-CPSI), and premature ejaculation diagnostic tool (PEDT) questionnaires. Participants were divided by ADAM positive (ADAM+: Group 1) and ADAM negative (ADAM−: Group 2).RESULTS: Total of 289 subjects were in Group 1 and 119 were in Group 2. The mean age was 53.8±7.8 years. The mean total testosterone was 4.8±1.2 ng/dL and showed no differences between the groups (p=0.839). In Groups 1 and 2, ED (IIEF≤21) was identified in 233 (80.6%) versus 37 (31.1%), respectively (p<0.001). The prevalence of PE (PEDT≥9) was 112 (38.7%) versus 13 (10.9%) in Groups 1 and 2, respectively (p<0.001). However, PE (intravaginal ejaculation latency time<5 minutes) showed no differences between the groups (p=0.863). The incidence of chronic prostatitis (NIH-CPSI pain score≥4) showed significant differences with 49 (17.0%) versus 8 (6.7%) in Groups 1 and 2, respectively (p=0.007). IIEF-5 total score showed the significantly highest negative correlation (r=−0.313, p<0.001).CONCLUSIONS: Those who complained of LOH symptoms and positive results in the ADAM questionnaire need to be assessed concurrently with the above questionnaires. This could aid useful to detect of ED, PE, and chronic prostatitis co-occurrence.
