Micturition is coordinated at the level of the spinal cord and the brainstem. Spinal cord injury
therefore directly interrupts spinal neuronal pathways to the brainstem and results in bladder …

The lower urinary tract has two main functions, the storage and periodic expulsion of urine,
which are regulated by a complex neural control system in the brain and lumbosacral spinal …

The lower urinary tract has two main functions, storage and periodic expulsion of urine, that
are regulated by a complex neural control system in the brain and lumbosacral spinal cord …

Aims To summarize the changes that occur in the properties of bladder afferent neurons
following spinal cord injury. Methods Literature review of anatomical, immunohistochemical …

Transection of the spinal cord that interrupts the spinobulbospinal micturition reflex pathway,
abolishes voluntary voiding and initially produces an areflexic bladder with complete urinary …

Lower urinary tract dysfunction is a common problem in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).
Since the coordination of the urinary bladder and urethra is controlled by the complex …

Spinal cord injury (SCI) severely disrupts bladder function. What mediates bladder
dysfunction after SCI is currently unknown. We investigated the role that primary afferent …

Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction typically develops after spinal cord injury. We
investigated the time course and the anatomical changes in the spinal cord that may be …

Spinal cord injury disrupts voluntary control of voiding and the normal reflex pathways that
coordinate bladder and urethral sphincter function. The present review addresses studies in …

Recovery of urinary tract function after spinal cord injury (SCI) is important in its own right
and may also serve as a model for studying mechanisms of functional recovery after injury in …
