“…Cesarean sections are believed to have a protective effect on the pelvic floor but probably only for the first delivery and less for multiple births (19,21,36). Vaginal delivery, therefore, represents a potent determinant of SUI, carrying from 1.5-to 3-fold the risk of cesarean section (15,17,32,37).…”

“…Rats underwent VD under intraperitoneal ketamine (100 mg/kg) and xylazine (10 mg/kg) anesthesia as previously described (7,14), with supplementation as needed. To avoid rupturing the vagina, it was first accommodated to larger capacities by subsequently inserting and removing increasing sizes (24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32) of Otis bougie à boule urethral dilators (Allegiance Health Care, McGaw Park, IL) lubricated with Surgilube (E. Fougera, Melville, NY). A modified 10-Fr Foley catheter (Lifetech, Stafford, TX) was then inserted into the vagina, and the balloon was slowly distended with water to 3 ml.…”

“…Moreover, this figure varies in gender depending on age. The study UrEpik showed that young men had less prevalence of UI symptoms while the proportion was reversed in the elderly [12]. But there are other factors that influence UI such as treatments, pathological antecedents, and lifestyle choices (smoking, alcohol intake, dietary habits).…”

“…13 Although the peak age at onset is 45 to 49 years, this problem has also been reported to occur in 12.4% of women 40 years old or younger. 4 Parity and age at first vaginal delivery have been shown to contribute most to the development of SUI, with the association between SUI and the first delivery being the strongest in women 20 to 34 years old (RR 2.2, 95% CI 1.8–2.6). 1 Many women who request surgical intervention for SUI may later wish to deliver more children.…”
