Artificial Intelligence as a Tool for Creating Patient Visit Summary: A Scoping Review and Guide to Implementation in an Erectile Dysfunction Clinic.

In modern healthcare, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized clinical practices, particularly in data management and patient visit summary creation. Manual creation of patient summary is repetitive, time-consuming, prone to errors, and increases clinicians' workload.

Association of relative fat mass with prevalence of erectile dysfunction in US men: an analysis of NHANES 2001-2004.

The high prevalence of erectile dysfunction (ED) underscores the critical importance of interventions and preventive measures targeting potential risk factors, among which obesity stands out. Relative fat mass (RFM) emerges as a superior indicator for quantifying body fat compared to traditional metrics like body mass index (BMI) or waist circumference (WC).

Magnetic soft microrobots for erectile dysfunction therapy.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a major threat to male fertility and quality of life, and mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are a promising therapeutic option. However, therapeutic outcomes are compromised by low MSC retention and survival rates in corpus cavernosum tissue.

Patients' perceptions of nocturnal erectile function assessment with the RigiScan®.

In recent decades, the assessment of male sexual function has been a subject of enduring interest. The use of the RigiScan®, a conventional diagnostic tool designed to differentiate between psychological and organic causes of erectile dysfunction (ED), has decreased due to several disadvantages.

Predictors of corporo-venocclusive dysfunction in men with bilateral nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is seen in some men who have undergone bilateral nerve-sparing surgery. Corporo-venocclusive dysfunction (CVOD) is the major pathway to permanent ED after radical prostatectomy (RP).

Association between the composite dietary antioxidant index and erectile dysfunction in US men: a cross-sectional study.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common issue among adult males. The Composite Dietary Antioxidant Index (CDAI) reflects anti-inflammatory levels and has been linked to various diseases, but its relationship with ED is unclear.

Are Specific Sexual Activities During Partnered Sex and Masturbation Related to Sexual Problems in Men?

To evaluate whether the presence of sexual problems in men (i.e., erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, or delayed ejaculation) is associated with differential sexual behavior during masturbation and partnered sex.

Efficacy of platelet-rich plasma in the treatment of erectile dysfunction: A meta-analysis of controlled and single-arm trials.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a prevalent condition in urology, and studies on the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for this condition have been conducted; however, the evidence remains inconclusive.

The correlation between premature ejaculation and a high incidence of erectile dysfunction and its research progress: a narrative review.

Premature ejaculation (PE) and erectile dysfunction (ED) are two common sexual symptoms of male sexual dysfunction that can strongly affect men's mental health and quality of life, and they often coexist.

Influence of personality disorders on sexual behaviours and response to treatment of psychogenic erectile dysfunction in phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor non-responders.

Personality disorders may influence sexual behaviours and sexual dysfunction.

Our main objective was to analyse the influence of personality disorders (PDs) in patients with erectile dysfunction (ED) of psychological origin that fail to respond to andrological treatment with Phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (IPDE5), assessing whether there are differences in sexual behaviours and response to psychosexual treatment.

Randomized trial of low intensity shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction utilizing grayscale ultrasound for analysis of erectile tissue homogeneity/inhomogeneity.

Electrohydraulic shockwave devices have been Food and Drug Administration-cleared for improved blood flow and connective tissue activation and have been used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). In this study, the main focus was to evaluate improvement in erectile tissue quality after low intensity shockwave therapy (LiSWT).

Association between inflammation indicators (MLR, NLR, SII, SIRI, and AISI) and erectile dysfunction in US adults: NHANES 2001-2004.

This study aimed to assess the relationship between multiple indicators of inflammation and erectile dysfunction through an analysis of data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

Development of a new digital sexual health assessment tool to help patients better understand the factors involved in their sexual disorders - "The Sexual Dysfunction Evaluation Tool » (SEXDET).

A visual digital tool called SEX-DET (SEXual Dysfunction Evaluation Tool) was created for assessing the causes of sexual dysfunction, based on a bio-psycho-social-sexual and relational schema, to assist patients in understanding the relative influence of the various factors contributing to their sexual dysfunction.

Mitochondrial FIS1 As a Novel Drug Target for the Treatment of Erectile Dysfunction: A Multi-Omic and Epigenomic Association Study.

Mitochondrial dysfunction may impact male erectile function, but the underlying genetic mechanisms remain unclear. The study aims to investigate the causal role for genetically regulated mitochondrial function in erectile dysfunction (ED) and to identify potential drug targets for the treatment of ED.

Surgical and non-surgical predictors of long term erectile function after robot assisted radical prostatectomy.

Robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) impairs erectile function (EF) due to the surgical procedure and non-surgical factors. Non-surgical factors may contribute to recovery of erectile function (EFR) after RARP.

Efficacy and safety of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) combined with tadalafil in the treatment of severe erectile dysfunction: a retrospective cohort study.

Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) is an effective and safe treatment for mild to moderate erectile dysfunction (ED). This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of combining LIPUS with tadalafil in treating severe ED.

Exploring the link between comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea (COMISA) and erectile dysfunction: implications for male sexual health.

This review explores the interplay between comorbid insomnia and sleep apnea (COMISA) and erectile dysfunction (ED), 2 conditions that significantly impact men's health. COMISA, a recently recognized condition characterized by the coexistence of insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea, has been shown to disrupt sleep architecture and cause intermittent hypoxia.

The global burden of erectile dysfunction and its associated risk factors in diabetic patients: an umbrella reviews.
