		<description><![CDATA[Currendy, the range of therapy for managing ED in the general population includes oral PDE-5 inhibitors such as sildenafil citrate, sublingual apomorphine, intracavernosal injection or transurethral alprostadil, vacuum constriction devices and penile implants. However, in cardiac patients on warfarin, injections and vacuum devices are not indicated because of increased risk of haematoma or bleeding

		<description><![CDATA[The discovery of nitric oxide with its regulating properties of vascular tone played a pivotal role in the understanding of vascular physiology and opened unprecedented avenues for research in the development of many cardiovascular drugs. Nitric oxide released by vascular endothelial cells induces smooth muscle cell relaxation and inhibits vascular smooth muscle proliferation. Nitric oxide [...]]]></description>

He reported a significant rise in blood pressure during sexual arousal due to sympathetic activity and peripheral vasoconstriction (systolic increased by up to 100 mmHg, diastolic by up to 48 mmHg) and a significant increase in heart [...]]]></description>
