Abstract

This editorial emphasizes the need to improve our understanding of overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) by integrating emerging methodologies. The current diagnosis of OAB is based on symptoms and lacks a defined cause, leading to dissatisfaction with treatments. The editorial discusses the potential of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and big data analysis, to provide more personalized and effective treatment options. The Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction Research Network (LURN) is highlighted as a significant initiative that has contributed to the understanding of OAB and is guiding clinical practices through real-world evidence. The editorial concludes by emphasizing the importance of developing new ways to provide targeted therapies for OAB. [Extracted from the article]
