“…Contrary to our findings, Serkan et al identified depression as an independent factor influencing sexual dysfunction in males with CKD 14 . Conversely, our results align with Furqan et al, who observed no significant link between depression and ED in male CKD patients at stage 5 16 . Theofilou et al even reported a negative correlation between ED and depression in CKD patients, further complicating the picture 17 .…”

Sexual dysfunction is common in males with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but yet the prevalence and specific relationship between CKD and sexual dysfunction, especially premature ejaculation (PE), remain to be investigated in China; This study aims to examine the prevalence and association between CKD and sexual dysfunction in male patients in China; In this cross-sectional, non-interventional, observational study conducted at a single center. 72 male patients with CKD were enrolled. Data collection included socio-demographic information, assessments via the 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5), the Chinese version of the Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool, the Patient Health Quentionnnaire-9 and the General Anxiety Disorder-7. Data analysis was performed using R version 3.5.2 and SPSS software version 25.0; Among the 72 CKD patients, 56.9% experienced erectile dysfunction and 29.2% had PE. Various factors including estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate, Albumin-to-Creatinine Ratio, psychological aspects, medication use were found to be associated with sexual dysfunction in these CKD patients; Sexual dysfunction is prevalent in males with CKD and is, influenced by multiple factors. It is important for clinicians to focus on sexual dysfunction in this patient group and further investigate its underlying mechanisms.

The questionnaire included socio-demographic information, a 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5), Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool (PEDT) in Chinese version, the Patient Health Quentionnnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7). SPSS software 25.0 was used for data analysis; (4) Results: 56.9% of 72 CKD patients had erectile dysfunction (ED) and the prevalence of premature ejaculation (PE) was 29.2%. Multiple factors such as vascular lesions and neuropathy of complications, psychological factors, medications were found to be associated with sexual dysfunction in CKD patients; (5) Conclusion: Sexual function is common among CKD male patients, which can not be divorced from multifactors. Clinicians should pay more attention to sexual dysfunction in male patients with CKD and the pathogenesis should be further studied.

“…In addition, it is stated in the literature that coping strategies may also be associated with sexual dysfunction in the general population (Crisp et al., 2015). In the literature, the studies explored the relationships between sexual dysfunction and depression, anxiety, and quality of life in adults receiving dialysis or with chronic kidney disease (Cruz et al., 2022; Guven et al., 2018; Jarullah et al., 2020). However, the relationship between coping strategies and sexual dysfunction has not yet been explored in adults receiving HD or PD.…”

AimTo explore relationship coping strategies and sexual dysfunction, and the predictive factors of sexual dysfunction in adults receiving haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.BackgroundSexual dysfunction is a common problem in adults receiving haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. This problem may be related to psychological and physiological conditions. However, the association between psychological conditions such as coping strategies and sexual dysfunction is not clearly understood.DesignThis study is a cross‐sectional study.MethodsThe data were collected from November 2021 to July 2022 using the General Information Form, Arizona Sexual Experiences Scale: Female and Male Versions, and the Ways of Coping Inventory. Correlation and multiple regression analyses were conducted to investigate the relationship between coping strategies and sexual dysfunction.Reporting MethodSTROBE checklist.ResultsA total of 110 adults, 67 on haemodialysis and 43 on peritoneal dialysis, who met the eligibility criteria were included in this study. The optimistic, helpless and submissive approach sub‐dimensions of coping strategies had positive correlation with sexual dysfunction in adults receiving haemodialysis. Among the sub‐dimensions of the ways of coping inventory, helpless approach was positive predictor and seeking social support was negative predictor of sexual dysfunction in adults receiving haemodialysis. The coping strategies were not predictors of sexual dysfunction for adults receiving peritoneal dialysis.ConclusionsThis study showed that helpless coping strategy increases sexual dysfunction, and seeking social support decreases sexual dysfunction in haemodialysis.Implications for the profession and/or patient careAccording to this study, social support is effective coping strategy for reducing sexual dysfunction. Education and support for effective coping strategies should be provided to dialysis patients by healthcare professionals at the start of dialysis treatment. Effective coping strategies should be integrated into routine care standards and nursing or hospital policies.Patient or Public ContributionAdults receiving haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis were involved in this study.
