This cross-sectional study aimed to compare the prevalence of urinary symptoms in physically active females to the general population represented by medical staff.
We conducted a survey utilizing the UDI-6 questionnaire on women playing catchball for at least one year and training twice a week or more in an official Israeli competitive league. The control group consisted of women practicing medicine (physicians and nurses).
The study group consisted of 317 catchball players and the control group consisted of 105 medical staff practitioners. Both groups were similar in most of the demographic characteristics. Urinary symptoms represented by UDI-6 scores were higher in women in the catchball group. Frequency and urgency symptoms were common in women playing catchball. Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) was insignificant between the groups (43.8% in the catchball group and 35.2% in the medical staff group, = 0.114). However, severe symptoms of SUI were more common in catchball players.
The rates of all urinary symptoms were higher in in catchball players. SUI symptoms were common in both groups. However, severe symptoms of SUI were more common in catchball players.
本横断面研究旨在比较体育活动女性与以医务人员为代表的普通人群中泌尿系统症状的患病率。
我们使用UDI - 6问卷对在以色列官方竞技联赛中从事至少一年接传球运动且每周训练两次或更多次的女性进行了一项调查。对照组由从事医学工作的女性（医生和护士）组成。
研究组由317名接传球运动员组成，对照组由105名医务人员组成。两组在大多数人口统计学特征方面相似。以UDI - 6评分表示的泌尿系统症状在接传球组女性中更高。尿频和尿急症状在接传球女性中很常见。两组间压力性尿失禁（SUI）无显著差异（接传球组为43.8%，医务人员组为35.2%，P = 0.114）。然而，严重的SUI症状在接传球运动员中更常见。
接传球运动员中所有泌尿系统症状的发生率更高。SUI症状在两组中都很常见。然而，严重的SUI症状在接传球运动员中更常见。
