Abstract

This study explored the experiences of men with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) who also experienced erectile dysfunction (ED) and delayed seeking medical treatment. Using a phenomenological approach, in-depth interviews were conducted with 15 male patients, aged 18 and above, who had been using phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors for at least three months. Thematic analysis of the interviews, framed by sexual script theory, identified three key themes. Patients reported feelings of sexual distress, a perceived loss of manhood, and inadequacy as husbands, which negatively affected their wives and relationships. Many initially believed that alternative therapies could cure ED, delaying their pursuit of conventional medical treatment. However, after complementary treatments failed, they recognized the benefits of PDE5 inhibitors. These medications significantly helped patients regain sexual strength, self-esteem, and satisfaction in their relationships. This study underscores the profound impact ED has on the sexual well-being of men with T2DM and highlights the importance of PDE5 inhibitors in improving sexual function and restoring intimacy within couples. It also emphasizes the need for early intervention and education on the effectiveness of medical treatments for ED.

Abstract

The current review aimed to map the available evidence on the assessments of mindful eating and dietary intake, and the relationship between mindful eating level, food group intake, nutrient intake, and obesity risk. This scoping review is based on Preferred Reporting Items for the Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses Extension for the Scoping Review (PRISMA-ScR) and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) 2020 framework. A literature search was conducted on Web of Science, PubMed, and ScienceDirect databases for studies published between 2014 to 2024, identifying eligible primary studies involving adult and elderly participants. Twenty-two studies were chosen for this review. Most studies assessed mindful eating using Mindful Eating Questionnaire (MEQ), Five-Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire, and Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS). Mindful eating practice was associated with lower snack consumption, and specific sub-scales showed a favorable correlation (p<0.05) with fruit and vegetable intake.  Body Mass Index (BMI) reductions were observed  in the intervention group (MD 0.51, p<0.001). This scoping review demonstrates the scientific basis of the mindful eating promote increased consumption of nutritious foods and nutrients, which is likely to lead to a reduction in obesity risk.
