We examined the association between BRI and prevalent erectile dysfunction (ED) among men aged 20 years or older in the 2001\u20132004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. ED was defined using a standardized erectile-function question. Primary analyses incorporated NHANES 4-year mobile examination center weights, strata, and primary sampling units, and analyses involving homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) used 4-year fasting subsample weights. The primary cohort included 3,850 men, of whom 1,024 met the study definition of ED, corresponding to a weighted ED prevalence of 17.8%. After adjustment for demographic, socioeconomic, and behavioral factors, each 1-unit higher BRI was associated with higher odds of ED (odds ratio [OR] = 1.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.11\u20131.24). Men in the highest BRI quartile had higher odds of ED than those in the lowest quartile (OR = 1.74, 95% CI = 1.27\u20132.38). Spline analysis did not support significant nonlinearity (P = .36). In the fasting subsample, each 1-unit higher BRI was associated with a 32% higher geometric mean HOMA-IR. An exploratory statistical decomposition was used to describe the HOMA-IR-related component of the BRI\u2013ED association. Higher BRI was associated with prevalent ED, supporting the clinical relevance of abdominal body shape in men\u2019s cardiometabolic and sexual-health assessment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/15579883261479006","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,13]],"date-time":"2026-08-13T22:42:03Z","timestamp":1786660923000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Body Roundness Index and Prevalent Erectile Dysfunction in Adult Men: A Survey-Weighted Cross-Sectional Analysis of NHANES 2001\u20132004"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-6708-3575","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cheng","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"The Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Saiyang","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiaoshuang","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xingliang","family":"Feng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,13]]},"reference":[{"issue":"6","key":"e_1_3_8_2_1","first-page":"S45","article-title":"Diabetes, obesity and erectile dysfunction: Field overview and research priorities","volume":"182","author":"Chitaley K.","year":"2009","unstructured":"Chitaley K., Kupelian V., Subak L., Wessells H.
