RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the incidence of urinary incontinence following transurethral thulium laser prostatectomy with three different prostate apex disconnection techniques: semi-separation, pre-separation, and post-separation. The findings aim to provide references for clinical treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 74 patients treated with transurethral thulium laser prostatectomy for prostatic hyperplasia from April 2022 to March 2023. Complete clinical and follow-up data were available for 52 patients. Clinical and follow-up data were collected for these patients. A comparison was made of urinary incontinence following the three different types of prostate apex disconnection in transurethral thulium laser prostatectomy. RESULTS: In this study, the immediate postoperative urinary incontinence rate for transurethral thulium laser prostatectomy was 9.62% (5/52), the short-term incontinence rate was 11.54% (5/52), and the long-term incontinence rate was 9.62% (5/52). The immediate postoperative incontinence rates for semi-separation, pre-separation, and post- separation were 8.33% (1/12), 8.33% (2/24), and 12.5% (2/16), respectively. The short-term incontinence rates for semi-separation, pre-separation, and post-separation were 8.33% (1/12), 8.33% (2/24), and 18.75% (3/16), respectively. The long-term incontinence rates for semi-separation, pre-separation, and post-separation were 8.33% (1/12), 8.33% (2/24), and 12.5% (2/16), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of urinary incontinence following transurethral thulium laser prostatectomy was lower with semi-separation and pre-separation compared to post-separation.

PURPOSE: To evaluate complications and urinary incontinence (UI) after endoscopic enucleation of the prostate (EEP) stratified by prostate volume (PV). METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia who underwent EEP with different energy sources in 14 centers (January 2019-January 2023). INCLUSION CRITERIA: prostate volume ≥ 80 ml. EXCLUSION CRITERIA: prostate cancer, previous prostate/urethral surgery, pelvic radiotherapy. PRIMARY OUTCOME: complication rate. SECONDARY OUTCOMES: incidence of and factors affecting postoperative UI. Patients were divided into 3 groups. Group 1: PV = 80-100 ml; Group 2 PV = 101-200 ml; Group 3 PV > 200 ml. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate independent predictors of overall incontinence. RESULTS: There were 486 patients in Group 1, 1830 in Group 2, and 196 in Group 3. The most commonly used energy was high-power Holmium laser followed by Thulium fiber laser in all groups. Enucleation, morcellation, and total surgical time were significantly longer in Group 2. There was no significant difference in overall 30-day complications and readmission rates. Incontinence incidence was similar (12.1% in Group 1 vs. 13.2% in Group 2 vs. 11.7% in Group 3, p = 0.72). The rate of stress and mixed incontinence was higher in Group 1. Multivariable regression analysis showed that age (OR 1.019 95% CI 1.003-1.035) was the only factor significantly associated with higher odds of incontinence. CONCLUSIONS: PV has no influence on complication and UI rates following EEP. Age is risk factor of postoperative UI.

BACKGROUND: Identifying comorbidities is a critical first step to building clinical phenotypes to improve assessment, management, and outcomes. OBJECTIVES: 1) Identify relevant comorbidities of community-dwelling older adults with urinary incontinence, 2) provide insights about relationships between conditions. METHODS: PubMed, Cumulative Index of Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Embase were searched. Eligible studies had quantitative designs that analyzed urinary incontinence as the exposure or outcome variable. Critical appraisal was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklists. RESULTS: Ten studies were included. Most studies had methodological weaknesses in the measurement of conditions. Comorbidities affecting the neurologic, cardiovascular, psychologic, respiratory, endocrine, genitourinary, and musculoskeletal systems were found to be associated with urinary incontinence. CONCLUSION: Existing literature suggests that comorbidities and urinary incontinence are interrelated. Further research is needed to examine symptoms, shared mechanisms, and directionality of relationships to generate clinical phenotypes, evidence-based holistic care guidelines, and improve outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Natural childbirth is associated with the risk of damage to the perineum - a tears or a episiotomy. Adequate preparation of the woman for childbirth is essential to minimize the occurrence of perinatal injuries. AIM: The aim of the review is to assess and analyze the impact of APM (antental perineal massage) on perinatal perineal injuries and the development of pelvic pain and other complications in postpartum women, such as dyspareunia, urinary (UI), gas (GI), and fecal incontinence (FI). METHODS: PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and Embase were searched. Three authors independently searched databases and selected articles for inclusion and exclusion criteria. Next one author did Risk of Bias 2 and ROBINS 1 analyze. FINDINGS: Of 711 articles, 18 publications were left for the review. All 18 studies examined the risk of perineal injuries (tearing and episiotomy), 7 pain in postpartum period, 6 postpartum urinary, gas/fecal incontinence and 2 described dyspareunia. Most authors described APM from 34 weeks of pregnancy until delivery. There were different techniques and times for doing APM procedures. DISCUSSION: APM has many benefits for women during labor and the postpartum period (e.g. lower rate of perineal injuries and pain). However, it can be observed that individual publications differ from each other in the time of massage, the period and frequency of its performance, the form of obtaining instruction and control of patients. These components may affect the results obtained. CONCLUSION: APM can protects the perineum from injuries during labor. It also reduces risk of fecal and gas incontinence in postpartum period.

INTRODUCTION: Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) constitutes the majority of urinary incontinence (UI) cases that occur due to anatomical and physiological changes during pregnancy and postpartum period. The objcetive of this study was to evaluate the effect of pilates in preventing the occurrence of SUI in the postpartum period. METHODS: A retrospective case-control study was conducted in a private hospital. Participants consisted of patients who gave birth vaginally at the hospital and were admitted to the hospital for routine control at the postpartum 12th week. The women did pilates for two days a week from the 12th week of pregnancy until the birth were included in the case group. The women did not do pilates in the control group. Data was collected using the "Michigan Incontinence Symptom Index". To detect the presence of SUI, researchers asked women "Do you have urinary incontinence problems in your daily life?". STROBE research check-list was used for reporting the study. RESULTS: The study was completed with a total of 142 women consisting of 71 women in each group. Of the women, postpartum SUI occurred in 39.4%. The severity score of women who did pilates were found to be statistically significantly lower than those who did not do pilates. CONCLUSION: During pregnancy, women should be encouraged to do pilates about the prenatal period by health professionals.

PURPOSE: Vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis after radical prostatectomy is a complication with significant adverse quality-of-life implications. Herein, we identify groups at risk for vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis and further characterize the natural history and treatment patterns. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Years 1987-2013 of a prospectively maintained radical prostatectomy registry were queried for patients with the diagnosis of vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis, defined as symptomatic and inability to pass a 17F cystoscope. Patients with follow-up less than 1 year, preoperative anterior urethral stricture, transurethral resection of prostate, prior pelvic radiotherapy, and metastatic disease were excluded. Logistic regression was performed to identify predictors of vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis. Functional outcomes were characterized. RESULTS: Out of 17,904 men, 851 (4.8%) developed vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis at a median of 3.4 months. Multivariable logistic regression identified associations with vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis including adjuvant radiation, BMI, prostate volume, urine leak, blood transfusion, and nonnerve-sparing techniques. Robotic approach (OR 0.39, P < .01) and complete nerve sparing (OR 0.63, P < .01) were associated with reduced vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis formation. Vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis was independently associated with 1 or more incontinence pads/d at 1 year (OR 1.76, P < .001). Of the patients treated for vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis, 82% underwent endoscopic dilation. The 1- and 5-year vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis retreatment rates were 34% and 42%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Patient-related factors, surgical technique, and perioperative morbidity influence the risk of vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis after radical prostatectomy. Ultimately, vesicourethral anastomotic stenosis is independently associated with increased risk of urinary incontinence. Endoscopic management is temporizing for most men, with a high rate of retreatment by 5 years.

Transurethral enucleation and resection of prostate (TUERP), as one of the conventional surgical methods for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), usually resulted in pseudo urinary incontinence after surgery. The present study was thereby conducted to evaluate the feasibility of anterior lobe-preserving transurethral enucleation and resection of prostate (ALP-TUERP) on reducing the incidence rate of urinary incontinence after surgery in patients with BPH. Patients diagnosed with BPH underwent surgical treatment were enrolled in the present study within the inclusion criteria. Characteristics including age, prostate volume (before surgery), PSA level, maximum free flow rate, international prostate symptom score, and quality of life were reviewed and compared between the groups of ALP-TUERP and TUERP. Incidence rate of urinary incontinence on 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, and 14 days after catheter drawing was deemed as main outcome, which was compared between the groups. In addition, secondary outcomes including surgery time, difference value of hemoglobin before and after surgery (∆Hemoglobin), catheter retaining time, catheter flushing time, and incidence rate of recurrent bleeding were also compared between the groups. There were 81 patients included in the present study within the inclusion criteria. There was no statistical difference on the baseline characteristics including age, prostate volume (before surgery), PSA level, maximum free flow rate (before surgery), international prostate symptom score, or quality of life between the 2 groups. Statistical superiority was observed on the incidence rate of urinary incontinence on day 1 (χ2 = 9.375, P = .002), and day 3 (χ2 = 4.046, P = .044) in the group ALP-TUERP, when comparing to group TUERP. However, the difference was not observed anymore after 7 days after catheter drawing (P = .241 for day 7, P = .494 for day 14) between them. In addition, no statistical differences were observed on surgery time, difference value of hemoglobin before and after surgery (∆Hemoglobin), catheter retaining time, or catheter flushing time between the group ALP-TUERP and TUERP (all P > .05). Results of the present study demonstrated a potentially statistical superiority of ALP-TUERP on the reduction of incidence rate of urinary incontinence comparing to conventionally TUERP.

PURPOSE: Our goal was to evaluate vitamin D supplementation for preventing or treating overactive bladder and urinary incontinence in men. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Ancillary study of men aged ≥55 years in VITAL (VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL). Randomized treatments included: vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol), marine omega-3 fatty acids, or matching placebo. Structured urinary incontinence questions measured the prevalence of overactive bladder at year 5 and urinary incontinence at years 2 and 5, along with incidence and progression of urinary incontinence from years 2 to 5. Prespecified subgroup analyses examined men with low baseline serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (<20 ng/mL). RESULTS: Among the 11,486 men who provided data at year 2 and 10,474 at year 5, mean age was 68 years at year 2, with 23% racial/ethnic minorities. In primary analyses, vitamin D supplementation compared to placebo did not lower odds of overactive bladder at year 5 (OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.87-1.08) or weekly urinary incontinence at year 2 (OR 0.94, 95% CI 0.83-1.05) or year 5 (OR 0.98, 95% CI 0.88-1.09). We found interactions of baseline serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level with vitamin D supplementation for overactive bladder (P value for interaction = .001), and secondarily, for any urinary incontinence at year 2 (P value for interaction = .05). Men with baseline 25-hydroxyvitamin D <20 ng/mL, who were assigned to vitamin D supplements, had lower odds of overactive bladder (OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.35-0.76) compared to placebo, yet higher odds of any urinary incontinence (OR 1.24, 95% CI 0.93-1.64). CONCLUSIONS: Overall, vitamin D supplementation did not improve overactive bladder or urinary incontinence compared to placebo. However, specific use of vitamin D in men with lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels had inconsistent findings.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to analyze the risk factors for predicting urethral stricture and urinary incontinence after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). METHODS: A retrospective study of 261 patients admitted from October 2018 to October 2022 who received TURP for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with complete postoperative follow-up data of at least 6 months. Patients were divided into urethral stricture group (n =18), non-urethral stricture group (n =243), urinary incontinence group (n = 12) and non-urethral incontinence group (n = 249) according to the presence of urethral stricture and urinary incontinence. Compared two groups of patient's age, course of the disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, IPSS score, prostate volume, maximum urine flow rate, whether preoperative urinary retention, total prostate specific antigen levels and whether preoperative status, placing a urinary catheter preoperative whether merger urinary tract infection, operative time, postoperative time, postoperative urine tube drawing time placing a urinary catheter, etc. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to screen for independent predictors. RESULTS: The incidence of urethral stricture and urinary incontinence after TURP was 6.9% and 4.6%, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes mellitus (OR = 9.526, 95%CI: 2.824ï¼32.127, P= 0.000); Preoperative urethral infection (OR = 6.500, 95%CI: 1.513ï¼27.925, P = 0.012); Postoperative indwelling catheter time (OR = 2.063, 95%CI: 1.181ï¼3.601, P = 0.011) was an independent risk factor for postoperative urethral stricture. Age (OR = 1.21, 95%CI: 1.027ï¼1.425, P = 0.023); Diabetes mellitus (OR = 37.515, 95%CI: 2.615ï¼538.170, P = 0.008); Postoperative indwelling catheter time (OR = 20.806, 95%CI: 3.090ï¼140.080, P = 0.002) was an independent risk factor for postoperative urinary incontinence. CONCLUSIONS: Urethral stricture and urinary incontinence are common complications after TURP. Diabetes, preoperative urethral infection, and postoperative catheter indwelling time are independent risk factors for urethral stricture after TURP. Age, diabetes mellitus and postoperative catheter indwelling time were independent risk factors for postoperative urinary incontinence. Diabetes mellitus and postoperative catheter indwelling were common and independent risk factors for urethral stricture and urinary incontinence after TURP.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to determine if vitamin D supplementation is associated with prevalent overactive bladder (OAB) in women across the aging spectrum. METHODS: We used the Nurses' Health Study (NHS) I (initiated in 1976) and NHS II (initiated in 1989) cohorts to evaluate the association of vitamin D supplements with prevalent OAB, all of which were reported by participants in 2019 in both NHS cohorts. OAB was defined as the self-reported need to rush to toilet to urinate at least sometimes. Further, OAB/wet included incontinence at least monthly because of urgency, whereas OAB/dry included incontinence once per month or less, or stress-predominant incontinence. Multivariable-adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of OAB/dry and OAB/wet subtypes were estimated using logistic regression models. RESULTS: Among the 75,316 women (age range, 55-98 y) from NHS and NHS II OAB prevalence was 26%. Increasing prevalence was observed across each older age group, with 41% of women 85 years or older reporting OAB symptoms. OAB/dry was more common (18%) than OAB/wet (8%). After multivariable adjustment, no clinically significant association between vitamin D supplementation and prevalent OAB or OAB type was observed. CONCLUSIONS: OAB symptoms are highly prevalent across adult women, including the oldest old, who are often excluded from treatment trials. Despite interest in vitamin D supplementation as a low-cost strategy to address OAB, our findings indicate oral vitamin D is not associated with prevalent OAB in middle-aged and older women.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common condition that remains challenging to treat. We hypothesized that skin-adhesive low-level light therapy (LLLT) would be an effective treatment for OAB caused by bladder muscle contraction. Accordingly, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an LLLT device for the treatment of OAB. METHODS: This prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial included patients with a clinical diagnosis of OAB who were treated at either of two university hospitals. Patients were instructed to apply an LLLT device (Color DNA-WSF) or a sham device at home three times daily for 12 weeks. The primary outcome was the change in the mean daily number of urge urinary incontinence (UUI) episodes between baseline and 12 weeks. The secondary outcomes were the mean changes in incontinence, voiding, and nocturia episodes from baseline and the likelihood of achieving a > 50% reduction in UUI and incontinence episodes after 12 weeks. All patients completed the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS), Urogenital Distress Inventory-6 (UDI-6), and Impact Urinary Incontinence-7 (IIQ-7) questionnaires. Safety parameters included treatment-emergent adverse events. RESULTS: Compared with those in the sham group, the numbers of UUI and urinary incontinence episodes in the LLLT group were significantly decreased at week 12 (UUI, (-1.0 ± 1.7 vs. -0.4 ± 2.5, P = 0.003; urinary incontinence, -1.1 ± 1.9 vs. -0.5 ± 2.9, P=0.002). Furthermore, the OABSS, UDI-6, and IIQ-7 scores at week 12 tended to be better in the LLLT group than in the sham group. The incidence of device-related treatment-emergent adverse events was similar between groups. CONCLUSIONS: LLLT may be clinically useful and safe for the treatment of OAB.

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: The objective was to assess the prevalence of symptoms of overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) among healthy nulliparous female university students, and to evaluate the correlation of these symptoms with a variety of factors, including waterpipe (WP) smoking. METHODS: This is a cross-sectional study. A questionnaire was administered to evaluate symptoms of OAB in healthy nulliparous female university students. Variables assessed included body mass index (BMI), cigarette smoking, WP smoking, consumption of alcohol, coffee, and tea with and without artificial sweeteners, soft drinks, and energy drinks. Adjusted odds ratio were calculated to determine the correlation of these variables with OAB symptoms. RESULTS: A total of 767 out of 2,900 females responded to the questionnaire. Bothersome frequency was reported in 32.3%, and nocturia in 47.5% of the women. Urgency and urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) were present in 25.5 and 24.7% of the study participants respectively. Urgency was associated with WP smoking (p value 0.048). Bothersome frequency was associated with artificial sweeteners used with coffee and tea (p value 0.013). UUI was associated with cigarette smoking (p value 0.034) and elevated BMI (p value < 0.001). OAB symptoms were not found to be significantly associated with soft drink and energy drink consumption. A lower prevalence of nocturia (p value 0.009) and urgency was associated with alcohol consumption (p value 0.017). More than two-thirds (69.2%) of WP smokers expressed readiness to decrease WP smoking if this would improve their lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). CONCLUSION: Overactive bladder is common in healthy young nulliparous women and is associated with multiple risk factors, including WP smoking.

BACKGROUND: Observational studies among older women have associated vitamin D insufficiency with a greater prevalence and incidence of urinary incontinence. However, little is known about the effect of vitamin D supplementation in reducing urinary incontinence. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of vitamin D supplementation in reducing the frequency of urinary incontinence in older women. STUDY DESIGN: We conducted an ancillary study of women aged ≥55 years in the Vitamin D and Omega-3 Trial, a randomized trial with a 2×2 factorial design. Recruitment of participants started from 2011 to 2014 across 50 US states, and the follow-up of participants ended in January 2018. Randomized treatments in the parent study included (1) vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) at a dosage of 2000 IU/d, (2) marine omega-3 fatty acids at a dosage of 1 g/d, and (3) matching placebo. Here, we analyzed women according to their randomization to vitamin D supplementation or placebo, regardless of treatment with omega-3 fatty acid supplementation. Validated frequency of urinary incontinence questions were added in year 2 of the study and were used again in year 5 at the end of trial. Prespecified ancillary outcomes included the prevalence of urinary incontinence at years 2 and 5, along with incident incontinence and progression of incontinence (from lower to higher frequency) from year 2 to year 5. Preplanned subgroup analyses examined the following outcomes: prerandomization of low serum levels of vitamin D (serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D<20 ng/mL), incontinence types, weight categories, and African American race. RESULTS: Among the randomized women who provided urinary incontinence data, 11,646 women at year 2 and 10,527 women at year 5, the mean age was 70 years at year 2, with 29% racial and ethnic minorities. The prevalence of urinary incontinence that occurred at least weekly was 29% at year 2 and increased to 37% at year 5. Vitamin D supplementation compared to with placebo was not associated with lower odds of urinary incontinence occurring at least weekly at year 2 (odds ratio, 1.08; 95% confidence interval, 0.99-1.19) or year 5 (odds ratio, 1.04; 95% confidence interval, 0.94-1.15). Vitamin D supplementation compared to placebo was not associated with lower incidence or progression of urinary incontinence from year 2 to year 5: incidence (odds ratio, 1.06; 95% confidence interval, 0.83-1.35) or progression (odds ratio, 0.94; 95% confidence interval, 0.82-1.08). Women with prerandomization of low serum levels of vitamin D (n=836) did not have lower odds of the prevalence, incidence, or progression of urinary incontinence. The findings were null in subgroups according to incontinence type, women with obesity, and African American women. Only women with healthy weight randomized to vitamin D had lower odds of progression of urinary incontinence (odds ratio, 0.78; 95% confidence interval, 0.63-0.95; P=.01). CONCLUSION: Vitamin D supplementation compared to placebo for 2 to 5 years was not associated with differences in the prevalence, incidence, or progression of urinary incontinence in older women with and without adequate serum vitamin D levels, with inconsistent differences among subgroups. The findings showed that the broad use of moderate doses of vitamin D supplementation did not reduce urinary incontinence in older women.

AIM: Giggle incontinence is a distinct entity of childhood daytime urinary incontinence (DUI), where children wet themselves only when they laugh. The prevalence of true giggle incontinence is unknown, with confusion about the diagnosis of urinary incontinence occurring during laughter and true giggle incontinence. The aim of the study is to improve our understanding of urinary incontinence during laughter by comparing those children with children who have DUI at other times, but not with laughter. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective medical record review of children with DUI who presented to a tertiary continence service from 2017 to 2018, collecting data on age, gender, associated comorbidities, lower urinary tract symptoms, investigations, provisional diagnosis at first visit and initial treatment responses. Differences between those with DUI occurring during laughter and those with DUI at other times, but not with laughter were compared using standard statistical methods. RESULTS: Of the 277 new patients seen during the study period, 140 (51%) had DUI, and of these, 72 (51%) had DUI occurring during laughter. Children with incontinence occurring during laughter were more likely to have incontinence associated with other activities. One child had giggle incontinence according to the International Children's Continence Society's definition. Four other children were referred specifically for urinary incontinence associated with laughter, with the term giggle incontinence sometimes used by the referring doctor. CONCLUSION: Children with DUI commonly experience incontinence during laughter, but true giggle incontinence is rare. Correct diagnosis is essential as it directs treatment.

INTRODUCTION: A history of transurethral surgery of the prostate is generally considered as a risk factor of adverse functional outcomes after radical prostatectomy (RP). We tested whether the risk of postoperative urinary incontinence (UIC) and erectile dysfunction (ED) after RP could be further substantiated in such patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We tested the effect of the following variables on UIC and ED rates 1 year after RP: residual prostate volume after transurethral desobstruction, the time from transurethral desobstruction to RP, the type of transurethral desobstruction (TURP vs. laser enucleation), age, and nerve-sparing surgery (yes vs. no). UIC was defined as usage of any pad except a safety pad. ED was defined as no sexual intercourse possible. RESULTS: Overall, 216 patients treated with RP between 2010 and 2019 in a tertiary care center were evaluated. All patients had previously undergone transurethral desobstruction. Regarding UIC analyses, only time from transurethral desobstruction to RP significantly influenced UIC rates (p = 0.003). Regarding ED rates, none of the tested variables reached statistical significance. CONCLUSION: The risk of UIC and ED after RP is substantial in men who had previously undergone transurethral desobstruction. The time from transurethral desobstruction to RP significantly impacts on the postoperative UIC rates. This observation should be further explored in future studies.

OBJECTIVES: Urinary incontinence has a high prevalence and a significant impact on quality of life, especially for women. Surgery is possible after failure of lifestyle changes, physiotherapy. Analyzing the care pathway of women under 75 years of age who have undergone surgery for urinary incontinence in link with recommendation and suggest possible improvements. METHODS: Quantitative, multicentric, retrospective survey carried out between 10/09/2019 and 25/11/2019, based on anonymous self-report questionnaire, among women aged between 32 and 75 and operated in different hospitals in Loire (France). RESULTS: Ninety-three answers were exploited out of 204. Among the women, 49.5 % had stress, 50.5 % mixed incontinence. Before the intervention, it had evolved for 5 years on average and caused discomfort evaluated at an average 7.5/10. Eighty percent frequently used protective pads and bladder training. Lifestyle changes and the voiding diary were not used much. Eighty-six percent of women felt comfortable to speak to a physician. Seventy-three percent had performed a urodynamic test, 47 % an abdominal ultrasound and 40 % a urinalysis. Seventy-seven percent performed physiotherapy, 39 % self-administered physiotherapy, 7 % used medication. The postoperative quality of life was evaluated at 7.8/10; 58 % felt healed and 69 % considered their sex life had improved. CONCLUSIONS: The care pathway could be improved through systematic screening for urinary incontinence and its impact. The development of a care plan to coordinate and propose quick care could help patients to improve their life.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the findings of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging associated with the occurrence of transient urinary incontinence after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate. METHODS: At a single institution, 360 patients underwent holmium laser enucleation of the prostate between January 2014 and December 2018. Of those, we retrospectively evaluated 237 who underwent preoperative magnetic resonance imaging and for whom postoperative evaluations were available for >3 months after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate. We carried out preoperative magnetic resonance imaging, and measured the periurethral sphincter complex, levator ani thickness, membranous urethral length and minimal residual membranous urethral length. Logistic regression analysis was carried out to assess the variables associated with incontinence. RESULTS: Transient urinary incontinence occurred after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate in 68 patients (28.7%); 46 (67.6%) of whom recovered within 3 months. Multivariate analysis showed that the membranous urethral length was independently associated with postoperative urinary incontinence at 1 and 3 months after surgery. The operative time was also independently associated with postoperative transient urinary incontinence at 1 month after surgery. CONCLUSION: Preoperative membranous urethral length and operative time are independent predictors of transient urinary incontinence after holmium laser enucleation of the prostate. These findings should be considered by surgeons before surgery.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effectiveness of Chinese herbal medicine for the treatment of urinary incontinence in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. METHODS: We carried out a retrospective cohort study using the National Health Insurance Research Database. From a cohort of 1 million records between 1996 and 2013, a total of 202 279 patients with newly onset chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were initially recruited. We matched with propensity score 3967 patients who received Chinese herbal medicine by age, sex, year of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease diagnosis, urbanization, comorbidities and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease medications. All participants received follow-up visits until the end of 2013 to record the incidence rate of urinary incontinence. The Cox proportional hazards model was applied to assess the association between Chinese herbal medicine use and the risk of urinary incontinence among chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients. RESULTS: The incidence rates of urinary incontinence were 57.33 and 108.15 (per 10 000 person-years) in the Chinese herbal medicine and non-Chinese herbal medicine cohorts, respectively, showing a significantly lower risk of urinary incontinence in Chinese herbal medicine users (aHR = 0.56, 95% CI = 0.45-0.69, P < 0.001). The Chinese herbal medicine prescription pattern analysis showed that Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus (Zhebeimu), Semen armeniacae amarum (Kuxingren), Platycodonis radix (Jiegeng), Xiao Qing Long Tang and Ding Chuan Tang constituted the core of Chinese herbal medicine prescriptions applied to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. CONCLUSION: The use of Chinese herbal medicine in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients can reduce their risk of urinary incontinence.

INTRODUCTION: To describe the incidence, contemporary management, risk factors and outcomes of urinary leak following open and robotic partial nephrectomy at a tertiary care, comprehensive cancer center. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We reviewed 975 patients who underwent partial nephrectomy at Moffitt Cancer Center from January 2009 to May 2017. Patient demographic, perioperative and follow up data was recorded and compared stratified for postoperative urine leak. Fisher's exact and Wilcoxon sum-rank testing were performed for categorical and continuous variables as indicated. RESULTS: Twenty-three of 975 (2.3%) patients experienced a urine leak after partial nephrectomy. Median nephrometry score for urine leak patients was 8 (SD +/- 1.3). Median postoperative days to detection was 3.5 and most leaks were discovered due to high drain output. Operative factors associated with urinary leak included open surgery, estimated blood loss, and not using a sliding-clip renorrhaphy (p < 0.05). Ten (44%) were managed conservatively, 9 (39%) patients required ureteral stent placement, 3 (13%) needed a percutaneous nephrostomy tube, one patient (4%) required percutaneous drainage for urinoma (4%). One patient ultimately failed conservative management and required nephrectomy 45 days after the original surgery. Mean time to stent and drain removal was 40 +/- 17 and 24 +/- 7 days, respectively. Five patients with symptomatic leaks were readmitted with a mean length of stay of 3.2 +/- 1.8 days. CONCLUSIONS: The overall incidence of urinary leak after partial nephrectomy remains low regardless of surgical approach. Perioperative characteristics such as tumor complexity and high blood loss, in addition to open surgery and not using a sliding-clip bolstered renorrhaphy are associated with urine leak.

AIM: This study aimed to identify the prevalence of urinary, fecal and double incontinence among Japanese residents aged ≥65 years living in long-term care facilities. Furthermore, the association between baseline characteristics and changes in toileting activity after a 3-month comprehensive care among older individuals was investigated. METHODS: We examined the prevalence of incontinence and its significant predictors. The association between the Functional Independence Measure score at baseline and each type of incontinence (urinary, fecal or double incontinence) was examined using a logistic regression model. Similarly, the association between the Functional Independence Measure score at baseline and improvement in toileting activity after a 3-month comprehensive care was examined. RESULTS: In total, 2517 residents (670 men and 1847 women) were recruited. The prevalence rates of urinary, fecal and double incontinence were 66.9%, 42.8% and 41.1%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, the sum of the motor subscales after removing four continence items and the sum of the cognitive subscales of the Functional Independence Measure score at baseline were significantly associated with all types of incontinence. The sum of the motor subscales after removing four continence items of the Functional Independence Measure score was associated with improved toileting activity. CONCLUSIONS: This study presented the prevalence of urinary, fecal and double incontinence among residents living in long-term care facilities in Japan. The Functional Independence Measure items at baseline were associated with not only continence status, but also improved toileting activity after 3-month comprehensive care.
