An examination of relationship between overactive bladder and C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate

Abstract

Objective: The definite cause of overactive bladder (OAB), which negatively affects the quality of life of patients, is unknown. This study aims to provide evidence for the inflammatory process in patients with OAB whose etiology has not been fully elucidated. Material and Methods: The study included 154 people with OAB diagnosis and 131 people as controls. This study was conducted retrospectively, cross-sectionally between April 2015 and April 2020. The data were recorded at the first meeting by an expert on this subject. Groups were compared in terms of CRP and ESR measured in serum. Statistical analysis used the chi-square test, independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and Pearson and Spearman correlation analyses. P<0.05 was accepted as statistical significance. Results: There were no differences between the groups in terms of comorbid diseases. There were significant differences identified in terms of age and BMI between the groups (p<0.005). When groups are compared according to CRP levels, values were 0.28 [0.54] for the OAB group and 0.17 [0.22] mg/dl for the control group (p=0.047). The distribution according to ESR in the groups was 19 [30.5] and 12.5 [13] mm/h, respectively (p=0.004). Conclusion: This study provides new evidence to the literature showing the relationship between OAB and an inflammatory process. It was determined that CRP and ESR levels were increased in patients with OAB compared to the control group. These results show us that there is an inflammatory process at the onset of this disease.
