There is an increasing need to develop approaches that will not only improve the clinical
management of neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) after spinal cord injury …

Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) produces lower urinary tract (LUT) dysfunction that has
been studied in surgical transection models. Our aim was to assess LUT functional deficit in …

Neurogenic bladder dysfunction is a condition that affects both bladder storage and voiding
function and remains one of the leading causes of morbidity after spinal cord injury (SCI) …

Lower urinary tract dysfunction is a serious burden for patients following spinal cord injury.
Patients are usually limited to treatment with urinary drainage catheters, which can lead to …

Loss of bladder function is an important consequence of a spinal cord injury (SCI) but is
rarely assessed in animal studies of SCI. Here, we use a simple outcome measure (volume …

Objectives: To compare changes in lower urinary tract (LUT) function with modifications in
pathways that regulate LUT function using two different animal models (incomplete and …

In rats, phasic external urethral sphincter (EUS) activity (bursting) is postulated to be crucial
for efficient voiding. This has been reported to be lost after spinal cord transection (txSCI) …

The authors review urologic dysfunction, including urine retention, incontinence, and
recurrent and resistant urinary tract infection, in dogs as a sequela to acute spinal cord …

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 …

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 …
