title: [Erectile dysfunction in men with lower urinary tract symptoms].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the incidence of erectile dysfunction (ED) in men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and the correlation between LUTS and ED.
  
  
  METHODS
  We enrolled 1 000 men aged 40 - 80 years with regular sex partners, evaluated their erectile function using IIEF-5, and investigated LUTS among them by International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). We studied the relationship between ED and LUTS by univariate conditional Logistic regression analysis.
  
  
  RESULTS
  LUTS were found in 42.81% of the men investigated (426/995), and ED in 76.18% of the subjects (758/995) and 82.16% of those with LUTS (350/426). Logistic regression analysis revealed a significant relation of ED with aging and LUTS (P < 0.01).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The The incidence of ED is high in men with LUTS and increases with aging and the severity of LUTS.
