All patients completed the International Index of Erectile Function. The atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease score and Charlson comorbidity index were applied to the entire cohort. Patients were divided into those with normal vs. pathological parameters at colour Doppler duplex ultrasound. Descriptive statistics were used to explore differences between the two groups. Logistic regression models tested the potential role of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease to predict arteriogenic and\/or venogenic erectile dysfunction. Local polynomial smoothing models graphically displayed the probability of pathological colour Doppler duplex ultrasound parameters at different atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease scores.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Overall, arteriogenic erectile dysfunction and venous leakage were diagnosed in 88 (40.2%) and 28 (12.8%) patients respectively. The median (interquartile range) atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease score was 7.7 (3.9\u201314).

At logistic regression analysis, a higher atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk score was independently associated with arteriogenic erectile dysfunction at colour Doppler duplex ultrasound (odds ratio: 1.03, 95% confidence interval: 1.01\u20131.08, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.02) after adjusting for Body Mass Index, physical activity, alcohol consumption and severe erectile dysfunction.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title><jats:p>As vasculogenic erectile dysfunction may precede by\u00a0some years the onset of acute cardiovascular diseases, the rigorous identification of patients with deficient cavernosal arterial blood flow, would definitely allow the implementation of\u00a0earlier and more effective cardiovascular prevention strategies in men with erectile dysfunction.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>The atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk score represents a reliable tool to identify patients with arteriogenic erectile dysfunction in everyday clinical practice.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/andr.13437","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,5]],"date-time":"2023-04-05T10:23:38Z","timestamp":1680690218000},"page":"1451-1459","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["The atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk score is a reliable tool to identify patients with arteriogenic erectile dysfunction"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Alessandro","family":"Bertini","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Experimental Oncology\/Unit of Urology URI IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele  Milan Italy"},{"name":"Vita\u2010Salute San Raffaele University  Milan Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Edoardo","family":"Pozzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Experimental Oncology\/Unit of Urology URI IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele  Milan Italy"},{"name":"Vita\u2010Salute San Raffaele University  Milan Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7872-2650","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Giuseppe","family":"Fallara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Experimental Oncology\/Unit of Urology URI IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele  Milan Italy"},{"name":"Vita\u2010Salute San Raffaele University  Milan Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Francesco","family":"Lanzaro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Experimental Oncology\/Unit of Urology URI IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele  Milan Italy"},{"name":"Vita\u2010Salute San Raffaele University  Milan Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Luigi","family":"Candela","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Experimental Oncology\/Unit of Urology URI IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele  Milan Italy"},{"name":"Vita\u2010Salute San Raffaele University  Milan Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Antonio","family":"Costa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Experimental Oncology\/Unit of Urology URI IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele  Milan Italy"},{"name":"Vita\u2010Salute San Raffaele University  Milan Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Corsini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Experimental Oncology\/Unit of Urology URI IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele  Milan Italy"},{"name":"Vita\u2010Salute San Raffaele University  Milan Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simone","family":"Cilio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Experimental Oncology\/Unit of Urology URI IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele  Milan Italy"},{"name":"Department of Neurosciences Reproductive Sciences and Odontostomatology Urology Unit University of Naples \u201cFederico II\u201d  Napoli Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2165-659X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Federico","family":"Belladelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Experimental Oncology\/Unit of Urology URI IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele  Milan Italy"},{"name":"Vita\u2010Salute San Raffaele University  Milan Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2347-9504","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paolo","family":"Capogrosso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology Circolo &amp;
