Variables Crude Adjusteda
HR 95% CI P value HR 95% CI P value
Outcome: Libido
 SSRI (per 28 cDDD) 0.92 0.77 1.10 0.3789 NAb
Outcome: Erection
 SSRI (per 28 cDDD) 0.94 0.92 0.97 <0.0001 0.95 0.92 0.97 <0.0001
Outcome: Ejaculation
 SSRI (per 28 cDDD) 0.93 0.82 1.07 0.3259 NAb

Notes: aAdjusted for all covariates (age, urbanization, income, aDCSI, comorbidities, SSRI, SNRI, NDRI, Mirtazapine, TCA, SARI, MAOI). bAdjusted hazard ratio cannot be analyzed due to the small sample size. Dysfunction of libido: ICD-9-CM codes 302.71; dysfunction of the erection:ICD-9-CM codes 302.72 and 607.84, dysfunction of ejaculation: ICD-9-CM codes 302.74 and 302.75, and dysfunction of other causes: ICD-9-CM codes 302.70, 302.76, 302.79, and V41.7.

Abbreviations: aDCSI, adapted Diabetes Complications Severity Index; SSRI, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors; SNRI, serotonin/norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors; NDRI,  norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitors; TCA, tetracyclic antidepressant; SARI, serotonin antagonist and reuptake inhibitor; RIMA,  reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase A.
