Zacche MM, et al. – A prospective cohort study is carried out to figure out if there is a link between aspects of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and overactive bladder (OAB) in women with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). This study exhibits a correlation between obesity and OAB/detrusor overactivity (DO) in female patients. However, other components of MetS do not seem to be related to either OAB and DO. Weight reduction ought to be firmly suggested in women with OAB.
