Participants (n = 1,827) completed a questionnaire collecting information on OAB, which was defined as urgency with either frequency or nocturia. <i>Results:<\/i> The age-adjusted prevalence of OAB was 16.9%, including 4.5% with urge incontinence. Age (p = 0.002), diabetes (p = 0.03), and benign prostatic hyperplasia (p < 0.001) in men, whereas diabetes (p = 0.01), hyperlipidemia (p = 0.03), stress incontinence (p < 0.001), and recurrent lower urinary tract infections (p = 0.02) in women were factors independently associated with OAB. Most people with OAB (69.0%) perceived little bother; only 13.0% had consulted doctors for this problem. <i>Conclusion:<\/i> Symptoms related to OAB are common among community-dwelling adults, yet most perceive it as a minor problem. Our results identify several factors that are significantly associated with OAB.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000096337","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,11,29]],"date-time":"2006-11-29T17:37:54Z","timestamp":1164821874000},"page":"327-333","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":55,"title":["Overactive Bladder Syndrome among Community-Dwelling Adults in Taiwan: Prevalence, Correlates, Perception, and Treatment Seeking"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"77","author":[{"given":"Hong-Jeng","family":"Yu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Cheng-Ying","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kuang-Lug","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wei-Chia","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tony Hsiu-Hsi","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,11,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0090-4295%2803%2900009-8"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1464-410x.2001.02228.x"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs001920170043"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1464-410X.2003.04682.x"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fnau.10052"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0022-5347%2801%2964955-3"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1464-410X.83.s2.4.x"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2Fj.urology.2003.11.003"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0090-4295%2802%2901799-5"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F01.ju.0000136255.83054.0c"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0022-5347%2805%2968236-5"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F00005392-199907000-00020"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0029-7844%2801%2901630-1"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1464-4096.2001.01667.x"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1464-410X.2003.04271.x"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093%2Faje%2Fkwh060"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0149-2918%2801%2980104-1"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002%2Fnau.10010"}],"container-title":["Urologia Internationalis"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/96337","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/96337","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T02:51:36Z","timestamp":1745463096000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000096337"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006]]},"references-count":18,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,11,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000096337","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0042-1138","1423-0399"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0042-1138","type":"print"},{"value":"1423-0399","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006]]}}}
