(2013) In European Journal of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Biology 170(2). p.559-562- Abstract
- To estimate the relationship between heredity and proband's age/parity on the risk of undergoing surgery for pelvic organ prolapse and stress incontinence.

Mothers and sisters of the probands were identified and information on incontinence or prolapse operations was linked to those relatives from the Hospital Discharge file, after which adjusted analyses were performed.
