Is smoking a cause of erectile dysfunction? A literature review
Abstract
Erectile dysfunction is common, and its prevalence increases with age owing to age-related diseases of vascular, hormonal, neurogenic and psychogenic factors. A literature review was undertaken to explore the impact of smoking on erectile dysfunction. The literature review of 18 studies revealed the detrimental effect of smoking on erectile function. Smokers were 1.5 times more likely to suffer erectile dysfunction than non-smokers. Men may be unaware of the effect of tobacco on erectile function. This literature review presents strong reasons for stopping smoking, and highlights the need for education within a comprehensive smoking cessation programme. All men should be offered smoking cessation treatment which includes nicotine replacement therapy and continued support. Randomized controlled trials are needed to explore the effect of smoking and smoking cessation on erectile dysfunction.

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.
