[1] LUTS Severity was measured with the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), which has a scoring range of 0 to 35. Total scores: 0-7 Mildly symptomatic; 8-19 moderately symptomatic; 20-35 severely symptomatic.
[2] Severity was determine only on participants with Erectile Dysfunction using scores on International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) EF Domain (sum of the scores for Questions 1 through 5 and Question 15) with a range of 0 to 30. Normal EF (≥26), mild ED (17 to 25), moderate ED (11 to 16), and severe ED (1 to 10).
