New study aims to uncover hidden clues about bladder control in older women
NCT ID NCT07243223
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will look at 1,100 older women in Hong Kong, including 1,000 with urinary incontinence and 100 without, to better understand the condition. Researchers will explore how common different types of incontinence are, what traditional Chinese medicine patterns appear, and whether certain biomarkers in blood, urine, or stool can help diagnose or classify the problem. The goal is to improve knowledge and care, not to test a new treatment.
