Psycho-biological correlates of free-floating anxiety symptoms in male patients with sexual dysfunctions.

Anxiety has a relevant impact on everyday life, including sexual life, and therefore is considered the final common pathway by which social, psychological, and biological stressors negatively affect sexual functioning. The aim of this study is to define the psycho-biological correlates of free-floating anxiety in a large sample of patients complaining of erectile dysfunction (ED)-based sexual problems. We studied a consecutive series of 882 ED patients using SIEDY, a 13-item structured interview, composed of 3 scales that identify and quantify organic, relational, and intrapsychic domains.

Psychobiological correlates of delayed ejaculation in male patients with sexual dysfunctions.

The pathogenesis of delayed ejaculation (DE) is rather unknown, though the contribution of various psychological, marital, hormonal, and neurological factors has been advocated. In this study we systematically investigated the relative relevance of the aforementioned factors in 1,632 men who were seeking medical help for sexual dysfunction. The severity of DE was classified according to Kaplan criteria.
