OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether @entity322 is more common in family members of @entity1 with @entity322 compared with continent individuals. STUDY DESIGN: @entity1 who were examined at 2 different outpatient facilities over a 2-year period received a questionnaire that covered social, behavioral, and medical issues. They were also asked whether they had a family member who complained of @entity322 and, if so, the degree of the relationship. Subjects were excluded for the following reasons: not mentally competent, difficulty understanding the written English language, and a history of @entity150 or of acquired or @entity16 . Statistical analyses were conducted with chi-squared tests for differences between groups; a probability of <.05 was defined as significant. RESULTS: A total of 833 @entity1 received the questionnaire; 667 @entity1 answered the question about @entity322 in family members. These 667 @entity1 were divided into 3 groups: group I, 441 incontinent @entity1 from the first facility; group II, 112 continent @entity1 from the first facility; and group III, 114 continent @entity1 from the second facility. @entity1 with at least 1 relative with @entity322 were 34.9% in group I, 16.1% in group II, and 5.3% in group III. This difference was statistically significant. In a comparison of group I and group II, the odds that an incontinent @entity1 had at least 1 relative with @entity322 were 2.6 times higher (95% CI, 1.50-4.48); comparing group I and group III, the odds were 9.6 times higher (95% CI, 4.17-22.25). CONCLUSION: In our study population, @entity1 with @entity322 were more likely to have at least 1 family member also with @entity322 when compared with @entity1 who were continent.
