No results posted yet for this study

Summary

* To evaluate the impact of nightly sildenafil vs placebo use on diabetic men with and without proven endothelial dysfunction and coexisting erectile concerns.
* To determine if chronic sildenafil use compared to placebo positively impacts endothelial function among a cohort of diabetic mend with erectile dysfunction
* To assess the salvage rate of sildenafil - failures who demonstrate improved response rates over time with chronic use
* To assess if microalbuminuria predicts flow-mediated dilation (FMD) response
* To measure and identify if other patient specific characteristics predict for sildenafil erectile response and flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) response over time (patient specifics; blood pressure, HBA1c, weight, BMI, age IIEF score at baseline)
