“…A weakness to this study was the fact that BPH was determined through medical record coding, without the aid of validated questionnaires or biopsy data. However, similar results were also found by Park et al [ 33 ], who analyzed data from 348 men enrolled in the Korean Longitudinal Study on Health and Aging and found no signifi cant difference in LUTS as measured by the IPSS in men with and without metabolic syndrome as strictly defi ned by the ATPIII.…”
