The aim of this study was assessing the complex correlations between somatic, psychological, and sexual symptoms of CP\/CPPS patients. Materials and methods: We performed a cross-sectional study on patients attending a Prostatitis Clinic. Patients were administered the following questionnaires: National Institutes of Health- Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI), International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF), Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool (PEDT), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item (GAD-7), Oxford Happiness Questionnaire (OHQ), and Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, Paris and San Diego Autoquestionnaire (TEMPS-A). Results: Linear regression analyses show highly significant correlations between scores of the NIH-CPSI and the scores of the GAD-7, PHQ-9 and OHQ psychometric questionnaires. IPSS scores correlate significantly with the psychometric scores only when a non-parametric analysis is performed. IIEF and PEDT sexual function scores did not correlate with any of the psychometric tests. NIH-CPSI scores correlate positively with most of the TEMPS-A profiles but the hyperthymic profile correlated negatively with the total and QoL NIH-CPSI and with PEDT scores. Conclusions: Scores measuring anxiety, depression, and psychological well-being in patients with CP\/CPPS are strictly correlated with prostatitis-like symptoms although they are poorly correlated with symptoms of prostatism, as measured by IPSS, and not correlated with scores of sexual dysfunctions, as measured by IIEF and PEDT. A hyperthymic temperament may increase resilience against the disease.\u00a0<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4081\/aiua.2024.12452","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,26]],"date-time":"2024-03-26T15:09:43Z","timestamp":1711465783000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Psychological and sexological assessment of patients with chronic prostatitis"],"prefix":"10.4081","volume":"96","author":[{"given":"Konstantinos","family":"Stamatiou","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vittorio","family":"Magri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Margherita","family":"Trinchieri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alberto","family":"Trinchieri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7209-9191","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gianpaolo","family":"Perletti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2549","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"115327","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-5347(05)00233-8"},{"key":"115328","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.urology.2008.09.074"},{"key":"115329","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.juro.2010.08.025"},{"key":"115330","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11136-005-1317-1"},{"key":"115331","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1525-1497.2001.016009606.x"},{"key":"115332","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/UA.UA_4_17"},{"key":"115333","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0090-4295(99)00099-0"},{"key":"115334","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eururo.2007.01.028"},{"key":"115335","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.166.10.1092"},{"key":"115336","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/00223891.2011.645931"},{"key":"115337","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jad.2003.10.012"},{"key":"115338","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.282.3.236"},{"key":"115339","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/ijcp.12340"},{"key":"115340","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3758\/BRM.41.4.1149"},{"key":"115341","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0191-8869(01)00213-6"},{"key":"115342","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpsychores.2014.09.012"},{"key":"115343","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0064630"},{"key":"115344","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.juro.2008.06.032"},{"key":"115345","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/andr.12647"},{"key":"115346","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4081\/aiua.2023.11300"},{"key":"115347","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jsxm.2018.05.016"},{"key":"115348","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41443-020-00405-4"},{"key":"115349","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MD.0000000000004620"},{"key":"115350","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0141447"},{"key":"115351","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/13814788.2013.868431"},{"key":"115352","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00345-013-1067-6"}],"container-title":["Archivio Italiano di Urologia e Andrologia"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.pagepressjournals.org\/aiua\/article\/download\/12452\/11814","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.pagepressjournals.org\/aiua\/article\/download\/12452\/11814","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,27]],"date-time":"2024-03-27T07:42:31Z","timestamp":1711525351000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.pagepressjournals.org\/aiua\/article\/view\/12452"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,26]]},"references-count":26,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,26]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4081\/aiua.2024.12452","relation":{},"ISSN":["2282-4197","1124-3562"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2282-4197","type":"electronic"},{"value":"1124-3562","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,26]]}}}
