Neurourology and Urodynamics Feb 01, 2019
Mckellar K, et al. - In this retrospective cohort study, authors estimated females ≥21 years from June 1, 2013, to June 30, 2016, to determine the prevalence of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and also to explore the association of racial/ethnic differences with risk factors and treatment. They observed 4.65 per 100 females of the overall prevalence rate with 54.13% among Hispanics (maximum), 23.54% in Blacks, 9.59% in Whites and 12.74% in Others. Despite more common risk factors in Black women, they were less likely to consult with a specialist. They observed that females classified as mixed or unknown race/ethnicity (Other) were more expected to undergo active treatment.
