  1. SDS, Self-Rating Depression Scale; IPSS, International Prostate Symptom Score; SF-36VT, Short Form 36 Health Survey’ s Vitality; PHQ, Patient Health Questionnaire. SDS, IPSS, SF-36 VT, and PHQ are continuous variables. Data that follow a normal distribution are presented as Mean ± SD, while non-normally distributed data are expressed as Median (Q1, Q3). Incontinence recovery is a categorical variable and is presented as n (%).
