Objective: To understand the middle-aged men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and erectile dysfunction (ED) prevalence and assess the age, duration of LUTS severity of symptoms from the epidemiological point of view correlation between ED severity of BPH patients with different typing distribution ratio. Methods: From May 2009 to March 2010 the Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine outpatient and inpatient 282 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia general survey. The questionnaire included the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), quality of life score (QOL), International Index of Erectile Function score (IIEF-5) and TCM investigation. In addition, the record of each survey must be completed examination of the urinary flow rate and maximum urinary flow rate (MFR). Cases of complete data using SPSS13.0 statistical analysis, -1 ≤ r ≤ 1 (r ≠ 0), the two sets of data correlation, r = 0, the zero correlation of two sets of data. Results: The results showed that patients aged 52 years -78 years, mean age (64.01 ± 7.25) years, at the age of 50-59, 60-69-year-old, 70-year-old age group, ED incidence rates were 95.8%, 89.7%, 94.4%. Course of April -239, the average duration (56.41 ± 53.81) months. The IPSS score 7-35 points, average (21.21 ± 7.25) points, including four cases of patients with mild symptom score (1.4%), the moderate symptom scores in patients with 104 cases (37.1%), severe symptom scores 172 patients (61.5%) . The prevalence of ED in the three groups were: 100% (4/4), 84.6% (88/104), 97.7% (168/172). Patient's quality of life (QOL) score 3-6 points, an average of (4.69 ± 0.86). Maximum flow rate of 4.2-14.5ml / s (10.63 ± 2.50) ml / s. IIEF-5 score 0-22 points, with an average (12.33 ± 6.49), erectile dysfunction in 20 patients (7.1%), 260 cases of patients with erectile dysfunction (92.9%), mild in 52 (18.6% ) cases, moderate in 64 (22.9%) cases and severe in 144 (51.4%) cases. Distribution of TCM syndromes were hot and humid place cards, yin deficiency syndrome, deficiency loss card, qi stagnation and blood stasis, the gas settlement permit, Hyperactivity Vision loss card. Correlation analysis showed that: age and IIEF-5 score was significantly correlated (r = -0.407, P = 0.000). Course and IIEF-5 scores were significantly correlated (F = -0.228, P = 0.000). Total IPSS and IIEF-5 score no significant correlation was not statistically significant (r = -0.027, P = 0.524). IPSS score two symptoms - the past month within 2 hours after urination have to urinate (r = -0.118, P = 0.049), five symptoms - feeling of the past month urinary thinning (r = 0.138, P = 0.021) and 7 of the symptoms - get up in the past month to sleep at night frequency of urination and IIEF-5 score was significantly correlated (r =-O.139, P = 0.023), the rest of the symptoms were not significantly correlation, the result was not statistically significant. Maximum urinary flow rate and IIEF-5 score weak correlation (r = 0.083, P = 0.049). Quality of life scores and IIEF-5 score was not statistically significant correlation was not statistically significant (r = -0.101, P = 0.092). Conclusion: benign prostatic hyperplasia accompanied by lower urinary tract symptoms in patients with erectile dysfunction prevalence was 92.9% (260/280). Age, duration and symptoms of the IPSS score 2, 5 symptoms, symptoms IIEF-5 score results have significant correlation; maximum flow rate with the IIEF-5 score results have weak correlation; IPSS score, QOL score and IIEF- 5 ratings showed no correlation. Patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia Chinese medicine syndrome in hot and humid place cards for the most, followed by kidney yin deficiency syndrome, deficiency loss of license, qi stagnation and blood stasis in the gas settlement permit, Hyperactivity Vision loss card.
