Erectile Dysfunction Under the Age of 40 and smoking

Question:
Erectile Dysfunction Under the Age of 40?


Answer:
Actually, Cliff, it's even more stupid than that. In the age group considered in the study, ie, between 18 and 40, 16 of 81 cases of "Erectile Dysfunction" were smokers. This is a rate of 19.75%. However, in the population at large, the smoking rate for males aged 18 to 40 is currently at 27%. That would mean that if smoking had nothing at all to do with "Erectile Dysfunction", then the expected number of smokers in a group of 81 would be 22.

The obvious conclusion when the results of this study are applied to the real world is that smokers suffer *less* "Erectile Dysfunction" than non-smokers.
