Urodynamics in a community-dwelling population of females 80 years or older: which motive? Which diagnosis?

International Brazilian Journal of Urology, 2010
PURPOSE: To determine why community-dwelling women aged 80 years or over were referred for urodynamic evaluation despite their advanced age and which urodynamic diagnosis was made. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred consecutive females (80-93 years) were

Urinary ATP may be a dynamic biomarker of detrusor overactivity in women with overactive bladder syndrome. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: Nowadays, there is a considerable bulk of evidence showing that ATP has a prominent role in the regulation of human urinary bladder function and in the pathophysiology of detrusor overactivity.

Impaired insulin signaling at the bladder mucosa facilitates metabolic syndrome-associated bladder overactivity in rats with maternal and post-weaning fructose exposure

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2023
Background/purpose: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and overactive bladder might share common pathophysiologies. Environmental fructose exposure during pre- and postnatal periods of rats may program MetS-associated bladder overactivity.

Mechanism of Action of Botulinum Toxin A in Treatment of Functional Urological Disorders

Toxins, 2020
Intravesical botulinum toxin (BoNT) injection is effective in reducing urgency and urinary incontinence. It temporarily inhibits the detrusor muscle contraction by blocking the release of acetylcholine (Ach) from the preganglionic and postganglionic ...

Urodynamic Detrusor Overactivity in Patients with Overactive Bladder Symptoms [PDF]

International Neurourology Journal, 2011
To evaluate the relationship between urodynamic detrusor overactivity (DO) and overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms in men and women.We reviewed the records of adult males and females who attended a tertiary referral center for urodynamic evaluation of OAB syndrome symptoms with the presence or absence of DO.

Botulinum A toxin modulates afferent fibers in neurogenic detrusor overactivity

, 2012
Background: Although botulinum toxin (BoNT/A) injected into the detrusor muscle improves overactive bladder symptoms in patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity, how it does so remains unclear. In this study, we investigated whether BoNT/A improves

Inosine Improves Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity following Spinal Cord Injury. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Neurogenic detrusor overactivity and the associated loss of bladder control are among the most challenging complications of spinal cord injury (SCI). Anticholinergic agents are the mainstay for medical treatment of detrusor overactivity.
