This study aimed to examine the effect of pelvic floor muscle training on the irisin (Ir) concentration in overweight or obese elderly women with stress urinary incontinence.
The number of participants included in analysis was 49: 28 women in the experimental group and 21 women in the control group. The experimental group (EG) underwent pelvic floor muscle training, whereas no therapeutic intervention was applied to the control group (CG). Irisin concentration, severity of urinary incontinence (RUIS), and body mass index (BMI) were measured in all women at the initial and final assessments.
By comparing the initial and final assessment results we have been able to demonstrate statistically significant differences in the measured variables in the experimental group. No statistically significant differences in the measured variables were reported for the control group at the initial and final assessments. Moderate negative correlation was observed between the BMI results with the irisin concentration results in the EG at the initial assessment and no correlation at the final assessment. Weak positive correlation was observed between the BMI results with the irisin concentration in the CG at the initial and final assessment.
Further studies are necessary to observe the regulation of irisin concentration and explain mechanisms underlying these effects.
本研究旨在探讨盆底肌训练对超重或肥胖型压力性尿失禁老年女性血清鸢尾素（Ir）浓度的影响。
分析纳入 49 名参与者：实验组 28 名女性，对照组 21 名女性。实验组（EG）进行盆底肌训练，对照组（CG）不进行任何治疗干预。所有女性在初始和最终评估时均测量血清鸢尾素浓度、尿失禁严重程度（RUIS）和体重指数（BMI）。
通过比较初始和最终评估结果，我们能够证明实验组测量变量的差异具有统计学意义。CG 在初始和最终评估时，测量变量均无统计学差异。EG 在初始评估时，BMI 结果与鸢尾素浓度结果之间存在中度负相关，而在最终评估时无相关性。CG 在初始和最终评估时，BMI 结果与鸢尾素浓度之间存在弱正相关。
需要进一步研究来观察鸢尾素浓度的调节，并解释这些影响的机制。
