Popis:	Purpose: We determined the incidence of erectile dysfunction in Italian men with diabetes.Materials and Methods: We estimated the incidence of erectile dysfunction, defined as failure to achieve and maintain erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance, after 2.8 years of followup in 1,010 men enrolled for a prevalence study of erectile dysfunction in diabetes.Results: Of the 1,010 men 192 (19%) complained of erectile dysfunction. The crude incidence rate of erectile dysfunction was 68 cases per 1,000 person-years (95% confidence interval 59 to 77). The incidence of erectile dysfunction increased with increasing age (10-fold higher for ages 70 to 79 than for 19 to 29 years), duration of diabetes (1.6-fold higher a history of 11 years or greater than for less than 5) and deteriorating metabolic control (1.7-fold higher for hemoglobin A1c greater than 9% than less than 7.5%).
