Oxybutynin-Associated Cognitive Impairment: Evidence and Implications for Overactive Bladder Treatment - Beyond the Abstract

Anticholinergic medications have long been mainstays of overactive bladder (OAB) treatment. Oxybutynin, a first-generation anticholinergic, still accounts for more than half of all OAB medication prescriptions, despite associations with impaired memory and cognition, as well as mounting evidence that it may increase the risk of incident dementia.

The AUA/SUFU guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic overactive bladder.

The purpose of this guideline is to provide evidence-based guidance to clinicians of all specialties on the evaluation, management, and treatment of idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB). The guideline informs the reader on valid diagnostic processes and provides an approach to selecting treatment options for patients with OAB through the shared decision-making process, which will maximize symptom control and quality of life, while minimizing adverse events and burden of disease.

The Effects of Vibegron Add-on Therapy on Alpha 1-Blocker Therapy for Sexual Function and Overactive Bladder Symptoms in Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: A Prospective, Open-Label Study.

Background: The effect of combining an α1-adrenergic receptor blocker (α1-blocker) and the β3-adrenoceptor agonist vibegron for treating persistent overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) on sexual function remains uncertain.

Prevalence and trends in overactive bladder among men in the United States, 2005-2020.

The purpose of present study was to examine the current prevalence and recent trends of overactive bladder (OAB) among US adult men and examine the correlations between OAB and several potential risk factors.

Menopausal stages and overactive bladder symptoms in middle-aged women: A cross-sectional study.

To examine the prevalence of overactive bladder (OAB) according to menopausal stages in middle-aged women.

Cross-sectional study.

Total Healthcare Center in South Korea.

Middle-aged Korean women (n=3469, mean age, 49.

Efficacy and safety of onabotulinumtoxinA for the treatment of overactive bladder in men and women: A pooled analysis.

This pooled analysis of randomized controlled studies investigated the safety and efficacy of onabotulinumtoxinA in male and female patients with overactive bladder (OAB).

Data were pooled from four similarly designed trials in North America and Europe.

Efficacy and safety of Vibegron for the treatment of residual overactive bladder symptoms after laser vaporization of the prostate: A single-center prospective randomized controlled trial (VAPOR TRIAL).

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Vibegron for the treatment of residual overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms after laser vaporization of the prostate (photo-selective vaporization of the prostate, contact laser vaporization of the prostate, and thulium laser vaporization).

The association between wet overactive bladder and consumption of tea, coffee, and caffeine: Results from 2005-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.

Previous studies have reported an inconsistent relationship between overactive bladder (OAB) and the consumption of tea, coffee, and caffeine. Our study aims to determine these associations in a large and nationally representative adult sample.

Relationship Between Overactive Bladder and Bone Fracture Risk in Female Patients.

Overactive bladder (OAB) has recently been recognized as an independent risk factor for falls and fractures. This study aimed to predict fracture risk in female patients with OAB symptoms.

We assessed and compared the fracture risk in newly diagnosed female patients with OAB to those without OAB using the Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX), and investigated the relationship between fracture risk and OAB severity.

Tibial Nerve Stimulation for Urge Urinary Incontinence and Overactive Bladder: Narrative Review of Randomized Controlled Trials and Applicability to Implantable Devices - Beyond the Abstract

Overactive bladder (OAB) is a highly prevalent condition affecting millions of people worldwide. Effective treatment options exist, yet there is a great deal of interest in additional safe and effective treatment options that meet the needs of our patients. Implantable tibial nerve stimulation (ITNS) is one innovative treatment option that is transforming the landscape of OAB.
