Comparative study of two different rat models of stress urinary incontinence.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare the success rate and urodynamic characteristics of the rat model of stress Urinary incontinence established by ovariectomy at different times after vaginal dilation. Eighty female rats were randomly divided into three groups: the control group (n = 20), model group A (n = 30), i.e., the animals received colpectasis and bilateral oophorectomy within 1 day; model group B (n = 30), i.e., the animals received bilateral oophorectomy 1 week after colpectasis. The sneeze test and urodynamics were tested. There was no significant difference between the model group A and the model group B (p > 0.05) in the sneeze test. The leak point pressure (LPP) of model groups A and B was lower than that of the control group (p < 0.05). The LPP value of model group A was lower than that of model group B (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in maximum bladder capacity (MBC) between model group A and the control group (p > 0.05); the MBC value of model group B was lower than that of the control group and model group A (p < 0.05). Models of stress urinary incontinence in rats can be successfully established by both modeling methods. In terms of LPP, model groups A and B had lower values than the control group, and model group A had lower values than model group B. In terms of MBC, there was no difference between model group A and the control group, and model group B had lower values than the control group and model group A.
