Data on demographics, medical history, lifestyle physiological anthropometric information collected.Incidence, rate ratio (RR).Analyses 24 985 women (mean age 41.9 years).The follow-up response 55.5%, median time 3.7 years. The standardised incidences UI, SUI, MUI 21.2, 13.1, 3.0 5.1 per 1000 person-years, respectively. Risk delivery pattern (vaginal spontaneous RR 2.12, 95% CI 1.62-2.78 instrumental 3.30, 1.99-5.45), high body mass index (BMI) (overweight 1.52, 1.33-1.74 obesity 1.67, 1.32-2.11), cigarette smoking (RR 1.54, 1.12-2.12), chronic cough 1.44, 1.17-1.76), diabetes 1.33, 1.10-1.60) older (50-59 1.49, 1.16-1.90 60-69 1.61, 1.22-2.13).The significantly associated increased from 1.21, 0.74-1.99, at 30-39 6.3, 3.85-10.30, >70 years) 1.48, 1.05-2.09).The female is 21.2 person-years China.
