About this study

Official title: Visceral Adiposity Index and Overactive Bladder: A Novel Predictive Risk Factor

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.

Read the detailed description

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. Exclusion criterias of study were male gender, pregnancy, alcohol intake, bladder cancer history, previous incontinence surgery history, presence of neurological disease, urinary infection or bladder stone and pelvic radiotherapy history.

Group 1:VAI levels <7,557,55 value was calculated as cut-off level for VAI by ROC analyse and area under curve was calculated as 0,487 Group 1 was defined as VAI levels <7,55

group 2:VAI levels >=7,557,55 value was calculated as cut-off level for VAI by ROC analyse and area under curve was calculated as 0,487 group 2 was defined as VAI levels >=7,55
Receives: Other: overactive bladder

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Visceral adiposity index

    Group 1(lower visceral adiposity index score) has lower over active bladder questionnaire scores than group 2(higher visceral adiposity index score)

    Measured: 1 day

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Visceral adiposity index (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
