Abstract
THE TERMimpotence, as it has been applied to the title of this conference, has traditionally been used to signify the inability of the male to attain and maintain erection of the penis sufficient to permit satisfactory sexual intercourse. However, this use has often led to confusing and uninterpretable results in clinical and basic science investigations. This, together with its pejorative implications, suggests that the more precise termerectile dysfunctionbe used instead to signify an inability of the male to achieve an erect penis as part of the overall multifaceted process of male sexual function. This process comprises a variety of physical aspects with important psychological and behavioral overtones. In an effort to be precise in the analysis of the material discussed at this conference, this consensus report addresses issues of male erectile dysfunction as implied by use of the termimpotencein the reports that have been presented.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
