Abstract

Purpose We evaluated associations between demographic and clinical characteristics, quality of life outcome measures and erectile aids in men treated for localized prostate cancer. Materials and methods Patients had clinically localized prostate cancer, were not using erectile aids at baseline and chose treatment with radical prostatectomy (275), external beam radiotherapy (70) or brachytherapy (80). Patient characteristics and health related quality of life outcomes were prospectively assessed at baseline and at regular intervals up to 48 months after treatment. Outcomes were assessed with SF-36, the American Urological Association symptom index and UCLA-PCI. We categorized use of a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor, urethral alprostadil suppositories, penile injection therapy or a vacuum erection device after treatment as erectile aid use. We created a multivariate model examining baseline demographic, clinical and health related quality of life covariates associated with erectile aid use. Results Of the 425 patients 237 (56%) used an erectile aid at some point during the posttreatment period. In our multivariate model patients treated with external beam radiation were less likely to use an aid (OR 0.34, 95% CI 0.16-0.69) and men with significant sexual bother (OR 2.68, 95% CI 1.37-5.23), or with 1 or more comorbidities (OR 1.80, 95% CI 1.08-2.93) were more likely to use an aid. Patient demographic characteristics were not associated with erectile aids. Conclusions After t…

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.
