Sarcopenia and Female Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms: A Systematic Review

Listen to this summary

The authors systematically review the association between sarcopenia and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in women, aiming to understand the epidemiological links, underlying mechanisms, and clinical implications. They found significant correlations between sarcopenia and various LUTS subtypes, suggesting that muscle health assessment may enhance management strategies for affected women. The study highlights the need for further longitudinal research to establish causality and evaluate potential interventions targeting sarcopenia to improve urinary outcomes.
