Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS Mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) is defined by the International Urogynecology Association (IUGA) and International Continence Society as the complaint of involuntary leakage of urine associated with urgency and also with exertion, effort, sneezing or coughing. It therefore implies the coexistence of both stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and urgency urinary incontinence (UUI). MUI is a heterogeneous diagnosis that requires an assessment of its individual components of SUI and UUI. Management requires an individualised approach to the symptom components. The aim of this review is to identify the assessment/investigations and management options for MUI. METHODS A working subcommittee from the IUGA Research & Development (R&D) Committee was created and volunteers invited from the IUGA membership. A literature review was performed to provide guidance focused on the recommended assessment and management of MUI. The document was then evaluated by the entire IUGA R&D Committee and IUGA Board of Directors and revisions made. The final document represents the IUGA R&D Committee Opinion. RESULTS The R&D Committee MUI opinion paper provides guidance on the assessment and management of women with MUI and summarises the evidence-based recommendations. CONCLUSIONS Mixed urinary incontinence is a complex problem and successful management requires alleviation of both the stress and urge components. Care should be individualised based on patient preferences. Further research is needed to guide patients in setting goals and to determine which component of MUI to treat first. The evidence for many of the surgical/procedural treatment options for MUI are limited and needs to be explored in more detail.

Abstract
Introduction The purpose of this study is to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture combined with pelvic floor rehabilitation training in the treatment of postpartum stress urinary incontinence, and to promote the further promotion and application of acupuncture in the field of rehabilitation. Methods and analysis Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of acupuncture combined with pelvic floor rehabilitation in the treatment of postpartum stress urinary incontinence will be searched in PubMed, Web of Science (WOS), Cochrane Library, EMBASE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), Wanfang (WF), and VIP databases. The clinical trial Registry (ClinicalTrials.gov and Chinese clinical trial Registry) will also be searched. The search period is limited to July 1, 2023, and the language limit of this systematic review is Chinese and English. The primary outcome is clinical effective rate. International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICI-Q-SF), 1-h pad test, pelvic floor muscle potential value, incidence of adverse events are secondary outcomes. A meta-analysis will be performed using RevMan 5.4 statistical software. If feasible, subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis will be performed to address potential causes of inconsistency and heterogeneity. The risk of bias will be assessed using the approach recommended by Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions, and the quality of evidence will be assessed using GRADE. This Protocol has been developed in accordance with the guideline of Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) 2015. Discussion Acupuncture combined with pelvic floor rehabilitation training can effectively promote the rehabilitation of postpartum stress urinary incontinence patients, and provide a reference for the clinical application of integrated Chinese and Western medicine treatment in the field of rehabilitation.

Abstract
Urinary incontinence is a silent epidemic that has a serious impact on a person's quality of life (QOL). This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of frankincense-based herbal product (FHP) in urinary incontinence compared with placebo and solifenacin. In this randomized, double-blind clinical trial, 120 postmenopausal women with mixed urinary incontinence were randomized to one of the three groups of FHP, placebo, and standard treatment (solifenacin). Frequency, amount of leakage, and score of urinary incontinence as well as the QOL were measured at the end of the second and fourth weeks and 2 weeks after the interruption of the treatment. The ICIQ-UI SF and I-QOL questionnaires were used for the measurements. Mean frequency of urinary incontinence and amount of leakage significantly decreased in the FHP and solifenacin groups in the fourth week compared to the placebo group. In addition, 2 weeks after treatment completion, the effects of the FHP were significant compared to the solifenacin group. Due to the effect of FHP on improving the QOL and also the prolonged effect of this drug, the use of FHP in urinary incontinence, as a complementary treatment could be suggested.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of acupuncture associated with pelvic floor muscle training for the control of urinary incontinence following radical prostatectomy. METHOD Open-label, parallel randomized clinical trial. The intervention group (n = 33) underwent eight sessions of systemic acupuncture associated with pelvic floor muscle training and the control group (n = 31) performed only pelvic floor muscle training. The outcome variable was urinary incontinence assessed by the Pad Test and Daily Pad Used, before treatment (T0), after four weeks (T1) and after eight weeks of treatment (T2). Data analysis was performed using a longitudinal model of Generalized Estimating Equations, significance level of 0.05. RESULTS The control group showed greater urinary loss compared to the intervention group at T1 (p = 0.006) and at T2 (p < 0.001). Both groups showed improvement in the level of urinary incontinence over time, but the improvement was greater in the intervention group (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Acupuncture associated with pelvic floor muscle training was effective in reducing urinary incontinence in prostatectomized men.Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials:RBR-3jm5y2.

Abstract
Background Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) is associated with being overweight/obesity and is a powerful risk factor for the disease of diabetes. In addition to lifestyle intervention that shows limited clinical application, acupuncture treatment has been a feasible treatment method for IGT in clinical practice. However, the effectiveness of acupuncture treatment has not been proved in evidence-based practice. Therefore, we design a multicenter randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture treatment for IGT in people with overweight/obesity. Methods The trial will be conducted at hospitals in three different sites in China. A total of 196 participants will be recruited and randomly assigned at a ratio of 1:1 to either to the acupuncture group or the sham acupuncture (SA) group. Both groups will receive 30 sessions of treatment for 12 consecutive weeks and will be provided with lifestyle intervention and a 24-week follow-up. The primary outcome will be change in the baseline value of 2-h blood glucose (2hPG) on the 12th week. Additionally, the expectancy of acupuncture, blinding, and safety will also be assessed. All statistical analyses will be performed by two-sided test, and a p-value of less than 0.05 will be considered statically significant. Discussion This study aims to provide quantitative clinical evidence of acupuncture effectiveness and safety in treating IGT in people who are overweight/obese.
