It seems to be a fact of medical publishing that different
publications may put their own emphasis of points arising from a new piece
of published research.
I find it hard to reconcile the front cover statement
" Overactive bladder: no role for anticholinergics "
with the contents of the paper itself.
The box stating " what this study adds " concludes that
"anticholinergics produce significant improvements in overactive bladder
symptoms compared with placebo."
Improvement in symptoms in overactive bladder syndrome is, in my
experience, largely what patients are looking for.
Rapid Response:
