Currently available three highly selective and effective PDE-5 inhibitors (sildenafil, tadalafil and wardenafil) are comparable by PDE-5 inhibition and selectivity of action on PDE-5 but their differences in activity, interaction with food and alcohol, biological half-life and other characteristics make their use individual for certain clinical situations. Our trial with participation of 575 patients (mean age 57.73 +/- 12.33 years) with arteriogenic erectile dysfunction and great number of vascular risk factors has shown that wardenafil was most popular among our examinees as it is more effective and begins acting faster. Further studies in optimization of the above drugs administration may perfect treatment of erectile dysfuncion.

Department of Neurology, LMU University Hospital, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) München, Munich, Germany.
Background And Objective: Non-motor symptoms frequently develop throughout the disease course of Parkinson's disease (PD), and pose affected individuals at risk of complications, more rapid disease progression and poorer quality of life. Addressing such symptom burden, the 2023 revised "Parkinson's disease" guideline of the German Society of Neurology aimed at providing evidence-based recommendations for managing PD non-motor symptoms, including autonomic failure, pain and sleep disturbances.
Methods: Key PICO (Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) questions were formulated by the steering committee and refined by the assigned authors.

Background: The penile suspensory ligament (PSL) plays a significant role in penile support and erection and its injury or congenital absence may result in functional impairment of erectile function.
Aim: To describe the diagnosis and surgical repair technique for PSL abnormalities and overall outcomes.
Methods: A comprehensive review of the literature was performed to understand the anatomic relevance of the PSL and historical management of PSL defects.
