High-resolution anorectal manometry in the diagnosis of moderate rectocele in symptomatic women compared to healthy subjects

Abstract

Abstract Background Few studies have investigated the healthy subject in women (HSW) and moderate rectocele in the symptomatic women (MRSW) identifiedby using three-dimensional high-resolution anorectal manometry(3D HARM) parameters correlate age stratification. Objective Clinical diagnostic values were explored between the MRSW and the HSW groups by 3D HARM parameters related to age stratification. Methods A retrospective cohort study involving 128 cases from the MRSW and HSW groups by using 3D HARM parameters was enrolled at Tianjin Union Medical Center between January 2017 and June 2022. Results Linear regression analysis showed that age was an independent risk factor for the prognosis of maximum squeezing pressure in females (P = 0.000). In the HSW group, age was negatively correlated with maximum resting pressure and maximum squeeze pressure in females, (P= 0.029), and ( P = 0.001), respectively.Logistic regression analysis showed that age and RAIR were independent factors in the prognosis of MRSW, (P = 0.024), and (P = 0.001), respectively. Conclusion Age and RAIR were independent risk factors for prognosis in the MRSW group compared to the HSW group using 3D HARM, and age was also an independent risk factor for the prognosis of maximum squeezing pressure in women.
