“…They found no association with UI incidence, 10,11 or "unclear", "limited", "conflicting" or "mixed" results for various LUTS. 12,13 Yet, one review including studies on both human and animal models concluded that high caffeine doses may have a possible role in two LUTS, namely urinary frequency and urgency episodes-the latter being in line with our conclusions. 13 Caffeine is generally considered a mild diuretic, 55 with an increased water excreting action, especially for doses above 250 mg. 56 Consequently, while the diuretic effect is less certain for daily consumers due to habituation, caffeine intake could generally accelerate urine production.…”

“…The present scoping review includes 26 studies, far exceeding previous reviews on the role of caffeine in LUTS, which included three to 10 studies each 8,13,25,54 . A synthesis of this present review's results revealed possible beneficial effects of complete caffeine cessation or a reduction to under 100 mg of caffeine per day (equivalent of one cup of percolated coffee) 26 on urgency episodes (level of evidence 2, grade of recommendation B) 24 and nocturnal enuresis episodes (level 4, grade C) 24 .…”

“…The present review, while not providing a higher level of evidence for clinical recommendations, offers additional information for analysis through an inclusive approach. Four other reviews focused on observational studies examining the association between caffeine intake and incident UI 10,11 or various LUTS among general populations (including both continent and incontinent participants) 12,13 from a preventive perspective. They found no association with UI incidence, 10,11 or “unclear”, “limited”, “conflicting” or “mixed” results for various LUTS 12,13 .…”

“…Indeed, non‐randomized designs can provide highly useful evidence to answer healthcare questions by complementing and further advancing RCT data 9 . In addition, existing reviews on observational studies did not specifically target adults seeking care for LUTS, but rather included studies on the association between caffeine intake and LUTS incidence among general populations or animal models 10‐13 . To bridge this gap, we conducted a scoping review to map out all existing literature on the role of caffeine on adults with LUTS.…”

Aims The purpose of this scoping review was to map out the existing literature on caffeine intake and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in adults. Methods In this scoping review, we searched for all studies available until June 2019 in MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Central Register, PsycINFO, LILACS, LiSSa, Web of Science, and Joanna Briggs Institute electronic databases, in addition to a hand search of the bibliographies of all relevant articles and a gray literature search. Both intervention studies on the effects of caffeine reduction in adults with LUTS and observational studies on the association between caffeine intake and LUTS‐related outcomes in adults were included and assessed for methodological quality by two independent reviewers. Results Fourteen intervention and 12 observational studies were included. Overall, there was a decrease in urgency episodes (level of evidence 2, grade of recommendation B) and nocturnal enuresis episodes (4, C) with caffeine reduction. Observational studies reported an unclear association between caffeine intake and LUTS‐related outcomes. Most importantly, this present review highlighted high heterogeneity in the studied populations, caffeine measures, and reported outcomes. There was also unknown or high risk of bias in most identified studies. Conclusions Caffeine reduction appears to reduce LUTS. Future studies on caffeine reduction interventions should target populations with urgency and urge urinary incontinence, which show the most promising results, and include valid and reliable measures of caffeine intake and LUTS. Finally, future studies should also use reporting guidelines to ensure lower risk of bias.

The aim of the study was to assess physical activity in subjects with overactive bladder OAB. The additional aim was to assess the relationships between physical activity and OAB risk factors. Material and methods. We studied a total of 109 subjects (101 women and 8 men). The mean age was 33.30 years (SD = 11.15). The study was conducted with the use of a comprehensive online questionnaire. The research tools were: our proprietary questionnaire and the following questionnaires: OABSS, PSS-10, IPAQ-SF. The study population consisted of 51 subjects with OAB who scored ≥ 2 points for Q3-urgency and ≥ 3 points for the total score in the OABSS questionnaire. The clinical control group consisted of 58 healthy subjects. Results. Physical activity in the study population was signi icantly lower (p = 0.039, t = 2.09) than in the clinical control group. Moreover, there was correlation between physical activity and hip size (r = -0.31, p < 0.05) In the clinical control group there was correlation between physical activity and stress (r = 0.36, p < 0.001) and between physical activity and WHR (r = 0.26, p < 0.05). Conclusions. 1. Subjects with overactive bladder reduced their physical activity. 2. The poorest physical activity was found in patients with large hip size. 3. In subjects with overactive bladder, stress, age, BMI, waist size and intensity of condition were not related to physical activity. 4. Physical activity may be one of the ef icient form of treatment for people with OAB.
