Psychogenic polydipsia in dogs – a review of pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Polyuria and polydipsia represent a common clinical presentation in dogs and may result from numerous disorders affecting different body systems. Compulsive water consumption is characteristic of psychogenic polydipsia, a primary polydipsia disorder rooted in neurologic, behavioural or environmental factors.

Cells and ionic conductances contributing to spontaneous activity in bladder and urethral smooth muscle

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cells and conductances contributing to spontaneous activity in the lower urinary tract. Bladder and urethra exhibit spontaneous contractions at both cellular and tissue levels. Both detrusor and urethral smooth muscle cells display activity that is regular and rhythmic.

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...

Drafting the calmodulation playbook: Emerging structural insights into transient receptor potential channel regulation by calmodulin

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Calmodulin (CaM) is a ubiquitous calcium (Ca2+) sensor that translates intracellular Ca2+ signals into modulation of hundreds of effector proteins including ion channels. CaM is increasingly recognized as a key regulator of the transient receptor potential (TRP) channel family, yet the underlying ‘calmodulation playbook’ is only ...

The use of urodynamic studies to help sort out bladder problems [PDF]

, 1997
Urodynamic studies are performed as part of the clinical investigation of selected patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction. These studies provide the clinician with information about lower urinary tract function and allow a more scientific approach

Dysregulation of CD39/Ectonucleoside Triphosphate Diphosphohydrolase 1 Causes Urinary Bladder Dysfunction with Abnormal Smooth Muscle Contractility

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
Abnormal extracellular ATP levels cause lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Here, we demonstrate that overexpression of ENTPD1 (CD39TG)—an ATP/ADP converting enzyme—reduces voiding frequency while increasing void volume. Conversely, ENTPD1 deficiency results in frequent, small‐volume voiding.

Longitudinal Behavior Phenotype Hallmarks in RNU4‐2 Syndrome: Implications for Clinical Management

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, Volume 201, Issue 3, Page 205-211, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in the non‐coding spliceosomal gene RNU4‐2 underlie ReNU syndrome, one of the most prevalent monogenic causes of neurodevelopmental disorders, accounting for ~0.4% of cases. Despite increasing recognition, little is known about the longitudinal behavioral and neuropsychiatric phenotype of affected individuals. We report two

Outcomes following intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxinA injections and sacral neuromodulation in older men

BJUI Compass, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Objectives This study aims understand the outcomes following intradetrusor onabotulinumtoxinA injections and sacral neuromodulation (SNM) in a national cohort of male Medicare beneficiaries with overactive bladder (OAB) Subjects and Methods This is a retrospective cohort study of a 100% sample of fee‐for‐service male Medicare beneficiaries ...

The Brain‐Gut Axis in Parkinson's Disease Pathology

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
Exposure to environmental toxins induces gut dysbiosis, increases intestinal epithelial barrier permeability, immune activation, and oxidative stress, promoting α‐syn misfolding and propagation. Brainstem DMV neurons exhibit α‐syn pathology, dysregulating neuronal excitability and vagal control of GI functions.
