PCS, Physical Component Summary; MCS, Mental Component Summary; UI, Urinary Incontinence; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The difference in PCS and MCS was estimated by respective multiple regression models controlling for age, gender, race, education and marital status, and the conditions included in this table other than the one being evaluated. *Statistically significant (two‐sided p < 0.0001).
