Both, Erectile dysfunction (ED)
and Coronary artery disease (CAD) have similar Risk factors
as : Age, Dyslipemia, Diabetes, hypertension, Smoking, lifestyle,
Obesity and depression. As Graham Jackson et al. confirm,
nine modificable risk factors are responsible for over 90%
of acute cardiac presentations and all of them are also risk
factors for ED. There for men with ED should be evaluated
for CAD risk. Many studies try to demonstrate the relationship
between ED and CAD with the evidence that ED may precede a
coronary event by 2-5 years.
We are going to try the answer, with you, to the question:
A man over 40 years with organic ED is a cardiac patient?
Who of them must be summated to cardiac study?
