At least 32.6% of participants reported significant LUTS symptoms not captured by IPSS, indicating potential limitations.
Multivariate analysis showed an urgency score ≥ 3 increases the risk of missed symptoms by 1.5 times and severe symptoms by 7.7 times.
ROC analysis indicates acceptable predictive performance for symptom severity, with an AUC of 0.710 for urgency classification.
The study suggests IPSS may serve best as a triage tool, while further evaluation is warranted for patients with high urgency scores.
