Decoding Urgency Urinary Incontinence: Identifying Distinct Physiological Phenotypes via Cluster Analysis

Highlight

This study identifies three distinct physiological phenotypes of urgency urinary incontinence (UUI) using cluster analysis of bladder and urethral function tests in women. These phenotypes differ in bladder sensation, detrusor activity, and urethral function, suggesting diverse pathophysiological mechanisms underlying UUI. Recognition of these subtypes could pave the way for individualized, phenotype-directed therapeutic strategies.
