Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common disease. It affects the quality of life of both husband and wife and becomes an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events. In China, Shugan Yiyang (SGYY) capsule has been increasingly reported in clinical trials for the treatment of ED and reported inconsistent findings. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a systematic review to evaluate the efficacy and safety of this drug for the treatment of ED. ⋯ The efficacy and safety of SGYY capsule for ED will be evaluated. We will publish the results of this systematic review in peer-reviewed journals to provide new evidence to clinicians.Registration information: PROSPERO CRD42019140903.

Meta AnalysisINFERTILITY AND SEXUAL DYSFUNCTIONS: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW.
This study aimed to investigate whether infertility and its treatment affect couple sexuality. A systematic literature review was performed, focusing on female and male sexual dysfunctions due to infertility. The method was descriptive, using a meta-synthesis of scientific research published between 2012 and 2017 in the English language. ⋯ Couples report less satisfaction with sexuality. Since lower satisfaction and dysfunctions are closely connected with infertility and its treatment, couples might benefit from sexual therapy and support during the process of infertility treatment. Further research should focus on the evaluation of different psychological interventions that would address sexuality in couples when diagnosed and treated for infertility.

Diabetic mellitus erectile dysfunction (DMED) refers to erectile dysfunction (ED) secondary to diabetes. As people's lifestyle changes and the population ages, the incidence of DMED continues to increase. Many clinical trials have proven that Chinese medicine has a significant effect in the treatment of DMED. In this systematic review, we aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for DMED. ⋯ This systematic review will evaluate the efficacy and safety of TCM for treating Diabetic mellitus erectile dysfunction. Because all of the data used in this systematic review and meta-analysis has been published, this review does not require ethical approval. Furthermore, all data will be analyzed anonymously during the review process trial.

Meta AnalysisPenile rehabilitation for postprostatectomy erectile dysfunction.
Despite efforts to preserve the neurovascular bundles with nerve-sparing surgery, erectile dysfunction remains common following radical prostatectomy. Postoperative penile rehabilitation seeks to restore erectile function but results have been conflicting. ⋯ Based on mostly very-low and some low-quality evidence, penile rehabilitation strategies consisting of scheduled PDE5I use following radical prostatectomy may not promote self-reported potency and erectile function any more than on demand use.

Meta Analysis
High Prevalence of Erectile Dysfunction in Diabetic Men With Depressive Symptoms: A Meta-Analysis.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) may be common among diabetic men with depressive symptoms (DS), but its prevalence is still debated. ⋯ The present meta-analysis of 5 cross-sectional studies suggests that diabetic men showing DS, compared to the diabetic men without DS, have more risk of ED. Further larger prospective cohorts with more power or meta-analysis based on individual patient data need to be conducted to confirm this association. Wang X, Yang X, Cai Y, et al.
