Changes in Erectile Dysfunction Over Time in Relation to Framingham Cardiovascular Risk in the Boston Area Community Health (BACH) Survey

Data suggest that even after taking into account other CVD risk factors, transient and persistent ED is associated with Framingham CVD risk and a greater increase in Framingham risk over time, particularly in younger men. Findings further support clinical assessment of CVD risk in men presenting with ED, especially those under 50 years.
