Repeated measures generalized linear model of factors independently associated with improved fecal incontinence severity among overweight and obese women with urinary incontinence across all visits

	Women with FISI scores >0 at baseline, n=163
Model variable	Beta (95% confidence interval)^a	p value
Visit	0.63 (−1.14 to −0.12)	0.02
Clinic	0.45 (−0.87–1.76)	0.51
Age (5 years increments)	0.17 (−0.20–0.55)	0.37
White race/ethnicity	−0.95 (−3.11–1.20)	0.39
Baseline weight (kg)	0.21 (−0.01–0.44)	0.07
Change in weight from baseline(kg)	−0.28 (−0.73–0.17)	0.22
Urinary incontinent episodes at baseline	−0.17 (−0.50–0.17)	0.32
Increased fiber intake from baseline (10 g/day)	0.15 (−0.89–0.58)	0.68
Decreased AUA symptom index score from baseline	−0.20 (−0.33 to −0.06)	0.004
