Values are medians with percentages in parentheses (25%, 75%).
The control with sham distension (Ct+Sham) group had significantly lower bladder capacity than the diabetes mellitus with sham distention (DM+Sham) and DM with vaginal distension (DM VD) groups preoperatively and at 4 days postoperatively.
The control with vaginal distension (Ct+VD) group had significantly lower bladder capacity than the DM+Sham and DM+VD groups preoperatively and at 4 days postoperatively.
The Ct+Sham group had significantly lower bladder capacity than the DM+Sham group 4 days postoperatively.
The Ct+Sham group had significantly lower mean intercontractile intervals than both the DM+Sham and DM+VD groups at 4 days postoperatively.
