The Brain and the Bladder: Forebrain Control of Urinary (In)Continence
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Neural circuits extending from the cerebral cortex to the bladder maintain urinary continence and allow voiding when it is socially appropriate. Injuries to certain brain regions produce a specific disruption known as urge incontinence.
