Although there are studies on the prevalence of sexual dysfunctions in men in Turkey, these studies report different results due to regional and methodological differences. Therefore, more robust and consolidated data are needed on the prevalence of sexual dysfunctions in men. Materials and Methods: For this meta-analysis study, \"Google Scholar\" and \"ULAKBIM\" databases were searched. Studies have been conducted in Turkey between January 2000 and April 2019 were included in the study. Results: The prevalence of male sexual dysfunction, erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation were found to be 28%, 18% and 24%, respectively. Conclusion: This study is the first meta-analysis on the prevalence of male sexual dysfunction in Turkey. Our results reveal the importance of preventive and therapeutic health services in male sexual dysfunctions.","PeriodicalId":30639,"journal":{"name":"Ankara Medical Journal","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77236738","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The wide spectrum of the signs and symptoms of SS often causes difficulties in diagnosis. Patients can apply with different complaints to general practitioners and many different specialists, apart from internists and ophthalmologists, who frequently encounter the disease. Our aim in this study was to evaluate the initial complaints of the patients who have been diagnosed with SS. Materials and Methods: Sixty-six patients who were diagnosed with primary SS according to 2012 or 2016 classification criteria were included in the study. The clinical and laboratory features were retrospectively evaluated. Results: The female/male ratio was 60/6. The initial complaint of most patients (n:34) was arthralgia or arthritis (51.51%). ANA was positive in 56 patients (84.84%), RF in 19 (28.78%), but not evaluated in 7 (10.6%), anti-SS-A in 29 (43.93%), and anti-SS-B in 16 (24.24%). Sixty-three patients had a positive Schirmer test. Minor salivary gland biopsy was obtained in 42 patients, and 28 had biopsy findings consistent with SS. Conclusion: SS is a common disease with a wide variety of clinical presentations. A detailed evaluation of patients is necessary to provide an accurate diagnosis and proper care.","PeriodicalId":30639,"journal":{"name":"Ankara Medical Journal","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87437649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
