The purpose of this study is to examine the protective role of dietary vitamin B12 against depression, particularly as its prevalence is notably high among women experiencing urinary incontinence (UI).
Background/Objectives: To investigate the utility of transperineal ultrasound in detecting stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and identify optimal anatomical and functional parameters. Methods: Thirty-four women presenting with SUI with or without pelvic organ prolapse between 2012 and 2016 were studied.
Little is known about the range and frequency of symptoms among older adult home healthcare patients with urinary incontinence, as this information is predominantly contained in clinical notes. Natural language processing can uncover symptom information among older adults with urinary incontinence to promote holistic, equitable care.
Urinary incontinence (UI) is common in women of all age groups, but postmenopausal women (MW) have a higher incidence of these symptoms. The International Continence Society suggests that women with UI should first try a conservative treatment, such as pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT), which aims to enhance the strength and rectify the activation patterns of the pelvic floor muscles.
Robot-assisted (RA) surgery has many advantages for urinary tract and pelvic floor reconstruction (UTPFR) but its application is only slowly increasing. Studies are limited in number, patients and follow-up duration.
The objective was to detect subtypes of urinary incontinence (UI) and their effects on quality of life (QoL) and sexual function among women seeking weight loss.
A cross-sectional study focusing on women seeking weight loss with UI symptoms was carried out.
There is no pooled evidence regarding the prevalence and potential factors associated with depression among women with urinary incontinence worldwide. Hence, a systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to determine the overall prevalence of depression among urinary incontinent women globally and explore any heterogeneity present.
To review the functional results of the midurethral sling (MUS) in the management of mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) and provide guidance on patient selection and the potential benefits of concomitant treatments.
Traditional slings, tension-free vaginal tape obturator inside-out (TVT-O) and tension-free vaginal tape (TVT), have well-documented continence outcomes but can cause serious complications. This study was aimed at evaluating whether slings with less synthetic material, Ajust™ and TVT-O Abbrevo™ (TVT-A), have comparable 6- to 12-month failure and complication rates, including risk of prolonged postoperative pain, compared with traditional slings.
This study examined the effectiveness of various electrical stimulation methods in alleviating symptoms and enhancing the quality of life for women with urinary incontinence. We conducted a systematic search of PubMed, Cochrane Library, PEDro, EMBASE, and ClinicalTrials.
