The symptoms of testosterone deficiency are non-specific which can make the diagnosis difficult. Symptoms which are most commonly associated with testosterone deficiency are reduced or loss of libido, absent morning erections and erectile dysfunction.1 Other common symptoms include tiredness, fatigue, impaired physical endurance, loss of vitality, lack of motivation and mood disturbance. Erectile dysfunction Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common complication in diabetic men with some reports finding up to 70% have the condition. The pathogenesis of ED in diabetic men is multi-factorial and can be due to a combination of these which include vasculopathy, neuropathy, psychological issues and testosterone deficiency. The presence of hypertension, smoking and higher waist circumference are associated with ED in diabetic men.2 Lower testosterone positively correlates with worsening IIEF (International Index of Erectile Function) in diabetic men. 2 Not all diabetic men with ED have testosterone deficiency but evidence shows that it is present in a significant number. NICE guidelines recommendation is to ‘review the issue of erectile dysfunction annually’.3 The European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines on ED state that measurement of testosterone is a minimum requirement in the diagnostic evaluation. 4 Penile Doppler ultrasound has shown that basal systolic velocity and dynamic peak velocity after administration of a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor are significantly reduced in hypogonadal diabetic men when compared to eugonadal men with diabetes.5 Failure to respond to sildenafil is associated with low testosterone in diabetes. 6 Animal work has found that castration leads to reduction in vascular smooth muscle content in the corpus cavernosum, reduced elastic fibres and increased collagen in the tunica albuginea, fat deposition between the tunica and corpus cavernosum and reduced nerve sheath thickness in the cavernosal nerve.7 Prevalence of hypogonadism","PeriodicalId":92116,"journal":{"name":"Practical diabetes international : the journal for diabetes care teams worldwide","volume":"78 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/PDI.1544","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"51024535","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}

Ameri","doi":"10.1002/PDI.1550","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/PDI.1550","url":null,"abstract":"Diabetes is a global epidemic and the highest prevalence rates in the world are found in Gulf Corporation Council countries, including Qatar. The country's Supreme Council of Health has recognised its significant health threat and has proposed the formation of a national diabetes plan. Baseline assessment of existing diabetes care can inform such design and implementation. The aim of this study was to inventory diabetes health care resources in Qatar. A prospective survey of private and public health care facilities serving outpatients in the country was conducted. A nine-item questionnaire was administered to determine patient access, multidisciplinary services and availability of drug therapy. Thirty-five (67%) of 52 identified health care settings participated. Services devoted to diabetes care were declared at five hospitals (one private and four public) and 24 clinics (15 private and nine public). The majority were located in the country's capital. Few offered services to children and adolescents (20% of hospitals, 55% of clinics). Most were led by general practitioner physicians with limited multidisciplinary contribution (nurses in 73%, dietitians in 17%). Administration of certain drug therapy may be restricted to specialist prescribers and may be unavailable to non-nationals. Patients with diabetes in Qatar may seek care from an array of private and public health settings. Elements of any comprehensive national plan to address diabetes and its complications must incorporate enhanced training support for primary care physicians, expanded multidisciplinary care and services for children and adolescents.
