Article Abstract
Introduction: Several mobile health applications (MHAs) have been developed to assist and improve the quality of life of patients affected by premature ejaculation, but the scientific quality and adherence to guidelines are not yet addressed.
Materials And Methods: On 25 May 2022, we conducted a search in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. We reviewed all mobile apps from Apple App Store and Google Play Store for premature ejaculation and evaluated their usage in screening, prevention, management, and adherence to EAU guidelines.
Results: In total 9 MHA were reviewed. All MHAs are geared towards the patient and provide information about diagnoses and treatment of PE. The mean score were 2.87, 3.69, 2.77, 2.55, 2.86 for Engagement, Functionality, Aesthetics, Information, and Subjective quality respectively. MHAs reported low and medium adherence to EAU guidelines.
Conclusions: MHAs provide different services in many medical fields, including male sexual dysfunction. Their development is constantly increasing, but the problems of scientific validation, content, and quality are not yet solved. Much future research is necessary to improve the quality of the apps and promote new user designed, and high-quality apps.

Introduction: Healthy relationships rely on emotional, physical, and sexual connections, but genitopelvic pain/penetration disorder (GPPPD) can render intimacy difficult for affected couples. This condition also affects the psychological and sexual well-being of male partners, which frequently leads to feelings of rejection and frustration that can further strain relationships. To effectively support couples, understanding how male partners are impacted by and cope with their partner's GPPPD, the focus of this study, is crucial.

Background: Premature ejaculation (PE) is one of the common male sexual disorders and is associated with autonomic nervous system imbalance. P-wave dispersion (PWD), a marker of atrial electrical heterogeneity and a predictor of atrial arrhythmias, has not been previously investigated in the PE population. This study aimed to investigate PWD in patients with PE and to evaluate whether the subtypes of PE, namely acquired (APE) and lifelong (LLPE), differ in terms of atrial conduction parameters.
