| Popis: |
The paper is based on the data from 92 males less than 45 years of age who underwent coronary angiography at Goa Medical College during the period July 2018 to February 2019. The objectives include to estimate the prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED) and its risk factors, and to evaluate the pattern of coronary artery disease (CAD) among these patients. The ED prevalence was 46.2%. Diabetes, hypertension and alcohol intake showed significant association with ED; and these patients were almost three more likely to have a coronary blockade compared to those not reporting ED. This concurrence between ED and CAD makes a strong ground for routine inquiry in sexual history of young males with one or more cardiovascular risk factors. |
