Ten-year follow-up after conservative treatment of stress urinary incontinence
Abstract
A follow-up study was done in 33 women 10 years after they had participated in a study on conservative treatment of stress urinary incontinence. The evaluation included a 24-h pad test, a short stress test, and two validated quality of life questionnaires. Currently, five women (15%) were still doing pelvic floor muscle training at least twice per week. During the interim, 15 (47%) women had undergone stress incontinence surgery, and 12 (80%) of these were continent. Among the 18 non-operated women, only one (6%) was continent. The difference is statistically highly significant (p < 0.0001). In conclusion, 10 years after conservative treatment of stress incontinence, 85% of the women had stopped conservative treatment, and 94% of those not operated were still incontinent. Significantly more of those who had undergone interval incontinence surgery were now continent.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
