A. A. Pavnitskiy. On the issue of testing of urinary incontinence sufferers. "Military Med. Zhur. ", Book. I, ―1913

In the course of many years, the author had to stand close to the issue of testing urine. When familiarizing himself with the setting of this rule in all large military hospitals in European Russia and in many military medical institutions in Western Europe, the author drew attention to the complete absence of urinating in foreign military medical hospitals in Russia, as opposed to the masses of urinating military in Western Europe. Further, the author points out that among us who urinate are often found incurable, in foreign armies they are easily cured. The author distinguishes seven types of urinary incontinence. The first three groups: - idiotes and feeble-minded, suffering from developed organic lesions of the spinal cord and face with incomplete development of the spinal cord — for servicesѣ are not suitable, and the question of the extent of their testing is ruled out by the study of the nervous system; The fourth group is diabetes insipidus, the fifth = diseases of the bladder and the sixth = muscle and nervous exhaustion during the hard and unusual work of military training.
