Impact of episiotomy on anal incontinence following second‐ to fourth‐degree perineal tears—A cohort study

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
In over 12 000 Swedish primiparous women, anal incontinence was more common after severe perineal tears. Episiotomy did not raise the overall risk except for a slight increase in gas incontinence after second‐degree tears. Encouragingly, symptoms improved across all types of tears during the first‐year postpartum.

Dorsal Genital Nerve Stimulation as an Adjunctive Therapy to Control Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity After Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
People with spinal cord injury (SCI) experience bladder overactivity, which can cause incontinence. Dorsal genital nerve stimulation (DGNS) can suppress overactivity, providing a longer duration to reach a toilet. People with SCI trialed home‐based DGNS for 8 weeks. DGNS was effective in the laboratory, and participants found home‐based DGNS acceptable.
