Data Sheet 1_Effects of various exercise interventions for postpartum stress urinary incon

49 randomized controlled trials involving 5,432 patients were analyzed to compare exercise interventions for postpartum stress urinary incontinence. The study, authored by Yujia Yin and published on figshare in April 2026, is a systematic review and network meta-analysis. It ranks the efficacy of pelvic floor muscle training combined with biofeedback, electrical stimulation, or vaginal weights, as well as aerobic and traditional exercises.

Use Cases

• Ranking the efficacy of different exercise therapies based on standardized mean differences and odds ratios reported in the meta-analysis.
• Informing clinical guidelines for postpartum stress urinary incontinence treatment based on the surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) results.
• Designing new randomized controlled trials based on the identified gaps in large-scale, high-quality studies mentioned in the conclusion.

Strengths

• Analysis is based on 49 randomized controlled trials, a substantial evidence base.
• Includes data from 5,432 patients, providing a meaningful sample size for meta-analysis.
• Uses established statistical methods (network meta-analysis, SUCRA ranking) with reported confidence intervals.

Limitations

• The dataset is a 666.6 KB PDF document; the underlying tabular data from the meta-analysis is not directly available.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred from the published article.
• Row count for the underlying trial data is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for direct computational analysis.
