Statements
Transgender men and transmasculine individuals report a variety of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), but little is known about LUTS in this population. (English)
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS (English)

2024
One of the obstacles is the lack of validated questionnaires. (English)
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS (English)

2024
This study was aimed at validating the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (ICIQ-LUTS), which measures filling, voiding, and incontinence symptoms, in transmasculine individuals. (English)
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS (English)

2024
This is an observational validation study that included transmasculine individuals receiving care within a single tertiary care hospital system. (English)
METHODS (English)
© 2024. The Author(s). (English)
2024
Construct validity was assessed by comparing the ICIQ-LUTS with severity of LUTS as measured by the Urinary Distress Inventory-Short Form (UDI-6), and concurrent validity by the association between ICIQ-LUTS and the Patient Perception of Bladder Condition (PPBC). (English)
METHODS (English)
© 2024. The Author(s). (English)
2024
Discriminant validity was determined by comparing ICIQ-LUTS scores in those with and those without self-reported LUTS. (English)
METHODS (English)

2024
Spearman correlation, t test, and Kruskal-Wallis test were used for data analysis. (English)
METHODS (English)

2024
A total of 131 respondents were included in the analysis. (English)
RESULTS (English)
© 2024. The Author(s). (English)
2024
Only two individuals (1.5%) reported prior vaginectomy and/or phalloplasty. (English)
RESULTS (English)
© 2024. The Author(s). (English)
2024
Concurrent validity was demonstrated by a significant association between ICIQ-LUTS subscales and PPBC (filling p < 0.001, voiding p < 0.001, incontinence p < 0.001). (English)
RESULTS (English)
© 2024. The Author(s). (English)
2024
Construct validity was demonstrated by a significant correlation between ICIQ-LUTS and UDI-6 (filling ρ = 0.76, p < 0.001; voiding ρ = 0.48, p < 0.001; incontinence ρ = 0.61, p < 0.001). (English)
RESULTS (English)
© 2024. The Author(s). (English)
2024
For discriminant validity, those with at least one self-reported LUTS had significantly higher (worse) ICIQ-LUTS subscale scores than those without self-reported LUTS. (English)
RESULTS (English)
© 2024. The Author(s). (English)
2024
The ICIQ-LUTS is valid for measurement of LUTS severity in transmasculine individuals. (English)
CONCLUSIONS (English)

2024
This will be an important tool to use in future research to learn more about LUTS in this population. (English)
