Association between grip strength and stress urinary incontinence of NHANES 2011-2014.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To investigate the association between grip strength (GS) and relative grip strength (rGS) with the prevalence and severity risk of SUI.

Methods

Female patients were retrieved from the NHANES 2011-2014. GS was measured using a digital hand dynamometer, rGS was defined as grip strength divided by BMI. Samples were classified into four groups based on quartiles of GS and rGS distribution (Q1-Q4)。Logistic regression models were established to detect the relationship between GS or rGS and SUI. The potential bias of baseline variables between SUI and non-SUI groups was controlled by performing the propensity score matching (PSM).

Results

A total of 4263 samples were included, with 3085 (85%) people in non-SUI group and 1178 (27.6%) people in SUI group. GS and rG
