“…A more recent international study reported a prevalence between 37.2 and 48.6% ( 2 ). In Latin America, ED was found in 53.4% of men older than 40 years ( 3 ). Despite the growing literature on ED, the incidence of ED is often underestimated, and the epidemiology of this condition is commonly neglected among young men.…”

ObjectiveWe aimed to evaluate the association between sleep quality and erectile dysfunction in young university students.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted in men aged 18–30 years from Universidad Ricardo Palma, Lima, Peru. The survey comprised the International Index of Erectile Function, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Berlin questionnaire, and questions related to sociodemographic data. Prevalence ratios were estimated with generalized linear models.ResultsOf 381 participants, the median age was 23 years. Half of the students (50.9%) had poor sleep quality, of which 72.7% had mild erectile dysfunction and 20.6% mild to moderate dysfunction. Prevalence of erectile dysfunction was significantly higher in students with poor sleep quality than in students with good sleep quality (aPR = 6.48; 95% CI: 4.58–9.17) after adjusting for age, academic year, nutritional status, and sleep apnea. In a subsequent exploratory analysis, sleep apnea was associated with a higher prevalence of erectile dysfunction (aPR = 1.19; 95% CI: 1.01–1.39), while overweight (aPR = 0.85; 95% CI: 0.76–0.95) and obesity (aPR = 0.65; 95% CI: 0.52–0.82) were associated with a lower prevalence of this condition.ConclusionPoor sleep quality was independently associated with erectile dysfunction in young university students. This finding suggests that male students are at risk for sexual problems due to possible academic demands and relationship issues.

“… 31 Our findings are consistent with those of Santibáñez et al, who reported a 26.2% prevalence of mild-moderate ED among young Peruvian adults, even though data in our context are rather limited. 32 These high rates might be explained by the fact that young adults often struggle to discuss their sexual health during clinical visits. 33 In fact, 68% of medical students are hesitant to discuss ED due to feelings of embarrassment with a health care professional, and 71% believe that doctors would dismiss their concerns.…”

“…It is important to note that variations in reported prevalence rates across studies may also be attributed to differences in sampling methods. The use of random 30 , 32 or nonrandom 39 sampling in similar studies can introduce variability in the composition of study populations, influencing the observed rates of ED.…”

Background There is inconclusive evidence regarding the role of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in the development of erectile dysfunction (ED), especially among medical students due to high academic stress. Aim To determine the association between IBS and ED in medical students from a Peruvian university in 2022. Methods An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted with secondary data analysis on 133 medical students from a university in northern Peru during the 2021-II academic semester. The dependent variable was ED as measured with the 5-item International Index of Erectile Function, and the exposure variable was IBS as assessed with the Rome IV–Bristol questionnaire. Outcomes The results were the prevalence rates of IBS and ED and the association of these variables. Results Of the 133 medical students surveyed, the median age was 22 years (IQR, 19-24). The median score on the 5-item International Index of Erectile Function was 21 (IQR, 10-24). The prevalence of ED was 38.4% (95% CI, 30.05%-47.17%). Among the medical students 3% and 9% displayed moderate and severe ED, respectively, and 24.8%, 13.5%, and 24.1% showed moderate depressive, anxious, and severe symptoms. An overall 10.5% had IBS. Medical students with IBS had a 108% higher prevalence of ED than those without the syndrome (prevalence ratio, 2.08; 95% CI, 1.06-4.06). Other confounding variables were not significantly associated (P > .05). Clinical Implications The results underline the importance of comprehensive sexual and mental health assessment, with an emphasis on the relationship between IBS and ED in medical students. Strengths and Limitations Strengths include the use of validated and reliable instruments and rigorous biostatistical methods, and this is the first Peruvian investigation to explain the association between IBS and ED in medical students. Limitations include the cross-sectional design and nonprobability sampling, and there may be bias in applying the instruments. Conclusion This study reveals a significant association between IBS and a higher prevalence of ED in these students.

“…One study assessed ED using two IIEF-like questions (Venegas & Baeza, 2004), estimating an ED incidence of 58% in men above 50 years old (Marconi et al, 2022). Meanwhile, using only the IIEF-5, Leyton et al (2018) reported a prevalence of 45% of ED amongst medical students, Santibáñez et al (2016) reported a prevalence of 80.8% of ED amongst patients referred for cardiac rehabilitation, whereas using the full version of the IIEF, Fleck et al (2014) showed that Tarda l 5 mg lowers the proportion of 59 ± 8.8 years older men with different degrees of ED after one month.…”

Psychometric evidence of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) in a Chilean representative sample

Amongst many psychometric instruments to measure male sexual dysfunctions, the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) stands out for its utility and widespread use. However, its internal latent structure lacks consistency across studies. Furthermore, studies have yet to address its measurement invariance evidence. Moreover, no formal validation of the IIEF has been conducted in Chile. Therefore, the following study aimed to comprehensively evaluate its psychometric evidence in a Chilean sample of men and determine its measurement invariance across relationship status, age groups, and paraphilic interests. A sample of 650 sexually active males was derived from a broader Chilean study (CSSS). We used a confirmatory factor analysis to determine its structural validity, sexual satisfaction dimensions to establish its criterion-related validity, and Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega to assess the reliability of its scores. Results supported the five-factor latent solution. Meanwhile, criterion-related validity revealed subtle yet significant differences in sexual satisfaction, with younger men displaying higher satisfaction in various sexual domains, whereas middle-aged men and those in a relationship showed better sexual function. Finally, the IIEF was invariant across relationship status, age groups, and paraphilic interests at the factor covariance level. Limitations included a lack of clinical population and a sample predominantly younger, cisgender, and heterosexual. Altogether, this study highlights the IIEF's suitability for assessing male sexual function in Chilean male populations across diverse sociodemographic characteristics. Future research efforts should focus on expanding sample diversity, including clinical populations.
