Male sex is a risk factor for detrusor pressure jeopardising the upper urinary tract in patients with spinal cord injury
Females rarely reached a Pdet<sub>max</sub> storage ≥40 cmH<sub>2</sub>O during the first year after SCI and had lower Pdet<sub>max</sub> storage and DOLPP than males. However, the prevalence of urinary incontinence was similar between the sexes, suggesting the need for a more sex-tailored approach to patient management.
