They will undergo IIEF (International Index of Erectile Function), SAS of Zung (self-rating anxiety state)and SDS of Zung (self-rating depression scale)questionnaires. The investigators will evaluate anthropometric and biochemical parameters, dysautonomic function index, IMT (Intima Media Thickness) index, and fundus oculi examen.
