The positive correlation between parity and overactive bladder in American adults: the mediating effect of body mass index
This research discovered that an increase in the number of parities was significantly correlated with an elevated prevalence of OAB, and BMI played a partial mediating role therein, indicating that weight management among women with multiple parities might be conducive to reducing the risk of OAB.
