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

Patients with suprasacral spinal cord injury usually exhibit severe lower urinary tract
dysfunction, which is generally attributed to loss of supraspinal input to the spinal micturition …

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 …

Suprasacral spinal cord injury induces changes in the mechanical and neuronal properties
of the bladder resulting in bladder areflexia followed by bladder–sphincter dyssynergia and …

Coordination of the bladder detrusor and the external urethral sphincter is a supraspinally
controlled reflex that is essential for efficient micturition. This coordination is permanently lost …

The purpose of these experiments was to determine whether experimental spinal trauma
would result in urological dysfunction similar to that seen clinically and whether recovery of …

We describe an animal model to study neurotransmitter changes in parallel with urodynamic
testing following Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). Urodynamic access was achieved using a …

Our purpose was to determine if intact perianal (S4–5) pin sensation (PPS) and
bulbocavernosus (S2–4) reflex (BCR) shortly after spinal cord injury (SCI) are predictive of …

Micturition in cats and rats with an intact neuraxis is dependent upon a spinobulbospinal
reflex activated by Aδ bladder afferents. This report describes changes in micturition reflexes …
