Visceral Adiposity Index and Overactive Bladder

In present study, we aimed to investigate the association between visceral adiposity index and overactive bladder symptoms in female patients aged over 18 years.Between January-2015 and July-2017, 151 female patient with overactive bladder symptoms were evaluated in Recep Tayyip Erdogan University Training and Research Hospital Urology Department. Antropometric and laboratory features including serum lipid levels, AST, ALT, fasting glucose levels, and also urodynamic findings were recorded. Visceral adiposity index was calculated according to gender-specific formula. Participants were divided into two groups according to 7,55 cut-off level for visceral adiposity index levels. Statistical significance were discussed between two groups.

About this study

Antropometric and laboratory features including serum lipid levels, AST, ALT, fasting glucose levels were recorded. Urodynamic study was performed all of patients to evaluate bladder functions. Over active bladder questionnaire-8 Turkish validated short form was filled out and recorded for each patients. Detailed medical histories of all patients were obtained before the study. Height, weight, and waist circumference (WC) were measured with the subjects in their underwear. Body mass ındex (BMI) was computed by the formula as the ratio of weight to the square of height (kg/m2). WC was measured on the line between the iliac crest and the lower costal margin parallel to the ground after subjects exhaled. Inclusion criteria of study was female patients who have over active bladder symptomes with or without urinary incontinence.
