  1. *In the linear regression analysis, as a continuous variable the IIEF-5 score is treated as the dependent factor. In the binary logistic regression analysis, ED (dichotomous variable: ED or without ED) is treated as the dependent factor.
  2. *ED: erectile dysfunction; BMI: body mass index; WHR: waist hip rate; OR: odd ratio; 95%CI: 95% confidence interval.
  3. *Multi-adjusted: age, BMI, WHR, smoke and drink.
