Association of overactive bladder with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in women: A propensity-matched NHANES study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To examine the impact of overactive bladder (OAB) on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in women in a real-world setting, and to examine the association of TyG-related indices with OAB.

Methods

Data on 6580 women aged ≥20 years were collected from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox survival analysis were used to evaluate the association between OAB and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Biomarkers for metabolic syndrome were assessed for their association with OAB, including triglyceride-glucose (TyG) and TyG-related indices. The association between TyG-related indices and OAB was evaluated using restricted cubic splines (RCS), receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and multivariate
