Pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments for urinary incontinence in women: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of clinical outcomes.
The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic interventions to improve or cure stress, urgency, or mixed UI in nonpregnant women. The investigators concluded that most nonpharmacologic and pharmacologic interventions were more likely than no treatment to improve UI outcomes. They also concluded that behavioral therapy, alone or in combination with other interventions, was generally more effective than pharmacologic therapies alone in treating both stress and urgency UI.

Incidence of opioid-managed pelvic pain after hysteroscopic sterilization versus laparoscopic sterilization, US 2005-2012.
The researchers compared the incidence of opioid-managed pelvic pain within 12 months after hysteroscopic and laparoscopic sterilization. They found that among women without recent history of childbirth, there was no compelling evidence of a clinically meaningful increase in the incidence of pelvic pain requiring opioids during the year after hysteroscopic sterilization.

Association of adverse pregnancy outcomes with glyburide vs insulin in women with gestational diabetes.
The purpose of this study was to estimate the risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes among women receiving glyburide compared with insulin for the treatment of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in a US population-based cohort. It found an association between glyburide (compared with insulin) and elevated risk of NICU admission, neonatal hypoglycemia, respiratory distress, birth injury, and large for gestational age in women with GDM.
