Association between a novel inflammation-lipid composite marker CRP/HDL and erectile dysfunction: evidence from a large national cross-sectional study
This is the first study to establish a significant positive association between an elevated CRP/HDL ratio and ED risk, suggesting its potential role in screening for ED risk and guiding timely interventions. However, further large-scale studies are needed to confirm our findings and explore the underlying mechanisms.
