Disparities in Prevalence of Urinary Incontinence among a Nationally Representative Sample of Men, 2005-2016: Findings from the Urologic Diseases in America Project

Challenge

Urinary incontinence is a highly prevalent and undertreated condition, but disparities in UI prevalence across gender, race/ethnicity, and age in a nationally representative US sample had not been systematically characterized.

Solution

Target RWE researchers analyzed nationally representative survey data to characterize the prevalence of urinary incontinence across demographic groups, identifying disparities by gender, race/ethnicity, and age.
