The unique constellation of symptoms spanning multiple organ systems and health domains necessitates specialized diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Neglecting the specific needs of this population can precipitate a considerable decline in quality of life and overall health outcomes. Our recommendations advocate for a multidisciplinary approach involving endocrinologists, urologists, geneticists, mental health professionals, and other specialists, to address the complex interplay of hormonal imbalances, metabolic disorders, cardiovascular risk factors including arrhythmia, bone health concerns, psychological and sexual challenges, ophthalmological problems, and dental issues. By providing a structured framework for comprehensive and individualized care, these recommendations aim to bridge existing healthcare gaps, optimize well-being, and enhance the overall quality of life for aging men with KS.","PeriodicalId":55542,"journal":{"name":"Aging Male","volume":"28 1","pages":"2519035"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144334442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Erectile function was evaluated using the 5-item International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5), and general health status was assessed using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Kidney Symptom Index (FKSI-19). Associations between clinical factors and IIEF-5 scores were analyzed using multiple regression models.Results: Among 357 patients (median age 62.9 years), 69% reported negative changes in sexual life, and 77.8% had some degree of ED. 62% of patients reported no sexual activity. Although older age, poor or intermediate IMDC risk, and greater symptom severity were associated with lower IIEF-5 scores in univariate analyses, age was not an independent predictor of ED. Instead, ECOG performance status, hemoglobin levels, and FKSI-19 scores significantly predicted ED level.Conclusions: ED is highly prevalent among patients with mRCC and appears to be more strongly associated with general health and disease burden rather than age. These findings highlight the importance of evaluating sexual health in oncology settings, irrespective of age.","PeriodicalId":55542,"journal":{"name":"Aging Male","volume":"28 1","pages":"2525853"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144531262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The registration number for this study was CRD42024618240.Result: Seven randomized controlled trials with 660 patients were analyzed. The results indicated that compared with the control group, IIEF score of patients in the PRP group improved significantly at 12-week (p = 0.03) and 24-week (p = 0.0004), while there was no significant difference at 4-week. The PRP group had no significant advantages over the control group in terms of MCID and SEP Q3. For peak systolic velocity, patients in the PRP group demonstrated greater improvement than those in the control group (p < 0.00001). Subgroup analysis revealed that adding PRP regimen can considerably improve IIEF scores of ED patients compared to using Li-SWT alone (p < 0.0001).Conclusion: PRP demonstrated a better efficacy in treating ED, especially during a follow-up period of 6 months. Compared with using Li-SWT alone, the addition of PRP can considerably improve the IIEF score of ED patients.

Thus, we aimed to study the extent of cognitive and emotional discomfort in communicating and sharing ED treatment by creating a new tool, called INTIMA (Impact of Negotiating Treatment Intake on Marital Intimacy/Alliance Assessment).Methods: 134 men diagnosed with ED completed a series of validated psychometric questionnaires, including INTIMA, the Fear of Intimacy Scale (FIS), and the Relationship Questionnaire (RQ). Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) were conducted to assess the dimensionality and factorial validity of the INTIMA and its psychometric strength.Results: CFA confirmed a single-factor structure with robust goodness-of-fit indices (ꭓ2[9] = 11.7, p = 0.234; SRMR = 0.030; CFI = 0.991; TLI = 0.985; RMSEA = 0.047). The INTIMA demonstrated excellent internal consistency. Convergent validity was supported by significant correlation with FIS and adequate Average Variance Extracted. ROC analysis revealed high discriminatory power for detecting insecure attachment patterns, with an optimal cut-off score of 17.Conclusion: INTIMA is a reliable psychometric tool for assessing perceived VJ and predicting the risks of involving or not the partner in ED treatment and to identify optimal strategies for better adherence and outcomes.","PeriodicalId":55542,"journal":{"name":"Aging Male","volume":"28 1","pages":"2509006"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144175652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We established Peyronie's model by injecting intratunical TGF-beta and 3% disodium phosphate dihydrate into four groups. One group received intratunical saline. The control group for the Peyronie's disease model was one group. In the other groups, the first had castration orchiectomy. The second group was the Peyronie's disease model control. The third group received intratunical saline injections. The fourth group received intraperitoneal testosterone injections, while the fifth received 0.5 mg of 5-alpha reductase inhibitor orally daily. We excised penile tissue for histopathology after a 30-day follow-up. Masson's trichrome staining found collagen and smooth muscle, picro-sirius staining found collagen III and collagen I, and hematoxylin and eosin staining found fibrosis.Results: Histopathological examination revealed significant differences in fibrosis, smooth muscle/collagen ratios, and collagen III/collagen I ratios.
