Abstract
Abstract Introduction Numerous cross-sectional epidemiological studies have reported a clear and clinically significant association between lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and erectile dysfunction (ED) in aging men worldwide. Objective We aimed to investigate the severity of ED symptoms with flow rate specifically Methods All patients came to our urology clinic, complaining of LUTS for at least 3 months were prospectively included in this study, in one year. Complete medical history including international index of erectile function (IIEF-5) and international prostate symptom score (IPSS) questionnaires, physical examination and comorbidity profile were collected. Patients were stratified according to IIEF-5 score into 4 groups: no or mild ED, mild to moderate ED, moderate ED and sever ED. Standard urofowmetry test was done, and prostate size was calculated through transrectal ultrasound (TRUS). Patients with middle lobe, urethral stricture and previous lower urinary tract surgery were excluded from the study. Database was done with Microsoft Excel and statistical analysis was done by SPSS software. Results 166 patients had complete data and were included in this analysis. The mean age was 57,and 26% were diabetic. When running Kruskal-Wallis Test it, showed that there is a statistical difference between the groups, the lower is the IIEF score (sever ED), the lower is the max flow rate (P<0.049) and the average flow rate (P<0.025). There was an inverse correlation between max flow rate and Prostate volume, the bigger is the prostate the lower tend to be the max flow rate (p<0.000), and same for average flow rate (P<0.001). There was a slight but significant (P<0.006) increase in severity of ED with the increase in prostate volume. The older were the patients the worse is the ED and the worse the flow rate (p<0.000). The flow rate was neither correlated with dyslipidemia nor with BMI. Conclusions Flow rate is correlated with severity of ED symptoms and prostate volume. Disclosure No

  • Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
  • We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
  • We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
  • The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
  • Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
