Aims Rodent cystometry has provided valuable insights into the impact of the disease, injury,
and aging on the cellular and molecular pathways, neurologic processes, and biomechanics …

Rodents, most commonly rats, mice, and guinea pigs are widely used to investigate urinary
storage and voiding functions, both in normal animals and in models of disease. An often …

Purpose In vivo animal cystometry represents an accepted methodology for the study of
lower urinary tract physiology. A particular advantage of the mouse model is the availability …

Background: Mouse urodynamic tests are fundamental to understanding normal lower
urinary tract (LUT) function. These experiments also contribute to our understanding of …

OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of changing the bladder filling rate during cystometry
in younger (2–3 months) and older (13–14 months) C57BL/6J male mice. METHODS …

Aims Rat cystometry is a common model used to investigate urinary storage and voiding
function. The effect of cystometric instrumentation in rat studies might be a source of …

Void spot assays (VSA) and cystometry are two of the most common tests performed in mice
to assess lower urinary tract function. Assay protocols and methodology vary greatly among …

The application of repeated cystometric measurements in longitudinal long-term studies
both in patients and experimental animals requires detailed knowledge of factors causing …

Aims Our objective was to investigate and compare bladder function in rats assessed by
metabolic cage and by urodynamic measurements in fully awake animals. Methods Bladder …

PURPOSE: To develop a model for cystometric study of bladder function in the awake
mouse, and to characterize urodynamically and immunohistochemically the non-obstructed …
