TL;DR: The Panel's recommendations build on those developed during the first and second Princeton Consensus Conferences, first emphasizing the use of exercise ability and stress testing to ensure that each man's cardiovascular health is consistent with the physical demands of sexual activity before prescribing treatment for ED, and second highlighting the link between ED and CVD, which may be asymptomatic and may benefit from cardiovascular risk reduction.

TL;DR: A risk stratification algorithm developed by the First Princeton Consensus Panel corroborates and clarifies the algorithm and emphasizes the importance of risk factor evaluation and management for all patients with ED, and increasing evidence supports the role of lifestyle intervention in ED.

TL;DR: Patients with ED but no clinical cardiovascular disease have a peripheral vascular defect in endothelium-dependent and -independent vasodilation that occurs before the development of other overt functional or structural systemic vascular disease and is independent of other traditional cardiovascular risk factors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a study was conducted to determine whether patients with vascular erectile dysfunction (ED) and no other clinical cardiovascular disease have structural and functional abnormalities of other vascular beds, including brachial artery endothelium-dependent and independent vasodilation.

TL;DR: The Minority Health Institute (MHI) as mentioned in this paper developed a risk assessment and management algorithm for primary care patients with erectile dysfunction (ED) that facilitates diagnosis, early intervention, and prevention of cardiovascular disease.
