Western ...Neurogenic bladder (NB) mainly occurs in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). The pathological basis of NB is the occurrence of lesions in the urination control center, which requires systematic treatment. Western medicine has many treatment methods for this disease, which can alleviate the symptoms of the disease. However, the radical effect is not ideal and there are many adverse reactions. In comparison, acupuncture can improve the residual urine volume of NB patients and regulate the related indexes of urodynamics. There are many kinds of acupuncture therapies, such as simple acupuncture and moxibustion, which can comprehensively improve the therapeutic effect and obtain a better disease prognosis. Therefore, this article elaborates on the pathogenesis of SCI complicated with NB, the treatment mechanism, and treatment methods of acupuncture and moxibustion to provide a reference for clinical treatment.展开更多

Urodynamic examination was performed 2 weeks later to determine neurogenic bladder status. The rabbits were treated with anodal block stimulation at sacral anterior roots for 4 weeks. Electrical stimulation of sacral anterior roots improved urodynamic parameters of neurogenic bladder in rabbit models of complete spinal cord injury, effectively promoted urinary function, and relieved urinary retention. Immunohistochemistry results showed that a balance was achieved among expression of muscarinic receptor subunits M2, M3, ATP-gated ion channel P2X3 receptors, and 132-adrenergic receptor, and nerve growth factor expression decreased. These results suggested that long-term sacral anterior root stimulation of anodal block could＇be used to treat neurogenic bladder in a rabbit model of complete spinal cord injury.展开更多

The remaining rats were made into models through operation, and 24 successful model rats were randomly divided into model group and EA group, with 12 rats in each group. Since the 19 th day after modeling, EA was conducted at ＂Cìliào＂（次髎BL 32）, ＂Zhōngjí＂（中极CV 3）,＂Sānyīnjiāo＂（三阴交SP 6） and ＂Dàzhuī＂（大椎GV 14） in EA group, remaining the needle for 20 min every time. The intervention was performed for once a day, and7 consecutive days were needed. The rest of the three groups were only tied up for the same time. Urodynamics test was conducted after the intervention. The contents of PACAP-38 and PAC1 R of the spinal cord of the injury site were detected by Western blot.Results： Compared with the blank group. there were no significant differences in the bladder capacity,leak point pressure, bladder compliance and PACAP-38 and PAC1 R contents in spinal cord in sham operation group; compared with the sham operation group, the maximum bladder capacity and the bladder compliance in the model group were lower（both P〈0.05）, the leak point pressure was higher（P〈0.05）,the contents of PACAP-38 and PAC1 R were lower（both P〈0.05）; compared with the model group, the maximum bladder capacity and the bladder compliance in the EA group were higher（both P〈0.05）, the leak point pressure was lower（P〈0.05）, the contents of PACAP-38 and PAC1 R were higher（both P〈0.05）.Conclusion： EA at BL 32, CV 3, SP 6 and GV 14 can improve the bladder function of NB rats of suprasacral SCI, and its mechanism may be related to the increase expression of PACAP-38 and PAC1 R protein in the injured spinal cord tissue.展开更多

We investigated the trends in publication of articles under the topic ＂neurogenic bladder＂ using bibliometric analysis. Articles on neurogenic bladder, published between 1995 and 2014, were retrieved from the ISI Web of Science citation database. We analyzed the search results for authors, countries, institutions, journals, and top-cited papers. A total of 1,904 articles were re- trieved. There was a small increase in the number of articles on neurogenic bladder from 1995 （n = 43） to 2014 （n = 117）. The USA was the leading country in the total number of articles （n = 598）. However, the number of publications from China has rapidly increased, and China was ranked second in 2014. Emmanuel Chartier-Kastler （n = 65） was the most productive author, and University of Paris VI （Paris 6） （n = 61） was the most productive institution. The Journal of Urology published the greatest number of artides on this topic （n = 285）. Articles on neurogenic bladder were often published in a professional journal under the category Urology ＆ Nephrology, Neurosciences ＆ Neurology, or Rehabilitation. Visualization analysis based on co-citation networks was conducted using CiteSpace III. Visualization analysis revealed that the hot spots in neurogenic bladder were botulinum toxin-A, prazosin, bethanechol, and afferent pathways. These findings provide new insight into the publication trends and hot spots in neurogenic bladder.展开更多

Traditional treatments to NB include medication, injection of Botulinum toxin A into the detrusor, neuromodulation and surgery. There are also emerging approaches, such as tissue engineering, stem cell transplantation and gene therapy. In recent years, we have carried out explorations in both therapeutic areas and tried to translate basic research into clinical practice. This paper reviews our work in this regard, and provides references for future research.展开更多

H...OBJECTIVE: To identify and separate the ventral root from dorsal root, which is the key for success of the artificial somatic-autonomic reflex pathway procedure for neurogenic bladder after spinal cord injury (SCI). Here we report the results of intra-operating room monitoring with 10 paralyzed patients. METHODS: Ten male volunteers with complete suprasacral SCI underwent the artificial somatic-autonomic procedure under general anesthesia. Vastus medialis, tibialis anticus and gastrocnemius medialis of the left lower limb were monitored for electromyogram (EMG) activities resulted from L4, L5, and S1 stimulation respectively to differentiate the ventral root from dorsal root. A Laborie Urodynamics system was connected with a three channel urodynamic catheter inserted into the bladder. The L2 and L3 roots were stimulated separately while the intravesical pressure was monitored to evaluate the function of each root. RESULTS: The thresholds of stimulation on ventral root were 0.02 ms duration, 0.2-0.4 mA, (mean 0.3 mA+/-0.07 mA), compared with 0.2-0.4 ms duration, 1.5-3 mA (mean 2.3 mA+/-0.5 mA) for dorsal root (P展开更多

A total of 134 patients with spinal cord injuries （105 males, 29 females; averaged 34.1 years old） were involved in this retrospective analysis, including urodynamic evaluation, clinical examination and imaging for anatomical position, and Bors-Comarr classification. The associa- tions between the levels of injury and urodynamic findings were analyzed. The results showed that mean follow-up duration was 16.7 months （range 8-27 months）. Complete spinal cord injuries occurred in 21 cases, and incomplete spinal cord injuries in 113 cases. Of the 43 patients with upper motor neuron （UMN） injuries, hyperref/exia and （or） detrusor sphincter dyssynergia were demonstrated in 30 （69.8%）, 31 （72.1%） suffered low bladder compliance （less than 12.5 mL/cmH20）, 28 （65.1%） had high detrusor leak point pressures （greater than 40 cmH20）, and 34 （79.1%） had residual urine. Of the 91 patients with lower motor neuron （LMN） injuries, areflexia occurred in 78 （85.7%）, high compliance in 75 （82.4%）, low leak point pressures in 80 （87.9%）, and residual urine in 87 （95.6%）, respectively. The associations between the anatomical site of spinal cord injury and urodynamic findings were ill defined. In patients with spinal cord injury, this study revealed a significant association between the level of injury and the type of voiding dysfunction. The anatomical site of spinal cord injury can not be predicted in real-time condition of bladder and urethral function.

文摘Objectives:This study employed evidence mapping to systematically evaluate clinical practice guidelines(CPGs)for neurogenic bladder(NB)care.We aimed to identify research trends,evidence gaps,and consensus patterns to inform evidence-based nursing practices and support the formulation of highquality CPGs.Methods:A systematic search of electronic databases and guideline repositories was conducted,included PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,Guidelines International Network(GIN),ect.Eligible NB guidelines underwent dual-researcher screening and extraction,and methodological and recommendation quality were assessed using the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II(AGREE II)and Evaluation-Recommendations Excellence(AGREE-REX)instruments.Five researchers independently evaluated recommendation specificity,evidence grading systems,and implementation consistency.Discrepancies were resolved through consensus discussion or third-party arbitration.Results:Analysis of 19 CPGs(2006–2023)from 11 countries/regions revealed that 78.95%(15/19)incorporated evidence grading systems and 68.42%(13/19)specifiedrecommendation strength.The AGREE II evaluation identifiedcritical methodological deficiencies,with three domains scoring below the acceptable thresholds:Rigor of Development(41.70%),Editorial Independence(43.30%),and Applicability(30.00%).The AGREE-REX results showed moderate performance in Clinical Applicability(55.56%)and implantability(41.67%)but severe gaps in Values and Preferences(25.00%).A systematic synthesis identified40 recommendations:90%(36/40)demonstrated consensus and 10%(4/40)contradictions.These studies addressed the following six clinical themes:1)nursing assessment,2)manipulation-assisted voiding,3)behavioral therapy,4)intermittent catheterization,5)indwelling catheterization,and 6)other therapies.Conclusions:The methodologies and recommendations of the CPGs for NB in nursing demonstrated substantial variability.Therefore,there is an urgent need to improve the quality of the NB-related CPGs.More in-depth research and timely updates are required to enhance the practical utility of CPGs and narrow the gap between CPGs and clinical practice.
文摘Clinical bladder evaluation is a cost-effective,non-invasive method for diagnosing and managing urinary dysfunction,particularly in patients with neurogenic bladder or other impairments.This process aims to assess bladder capacity,storage,and voiding functions through simple,realistic,and resource-friendly approaches.It involves a structured series of steps,from history-taking and physical examination to bladder-emptying procedures,monitoring urine leaks,assessing reflex voiding,measuring post-void residual(PVR),and calculating total bladder capacity.These evaluations help differentiate between upper motor neuron and lower motor neuron bladder dysfunction,providing critical insights for tailored management.The interpretation of findings focuses on identifying bladder type,assessing leak timing and volume,evaluating reflex voiding,and measuring PVR and total bladder capacity.The results guide interventions such as timing selfclean intermittent catheterization,adjusting fluid intake,and using bladder diaries to monitor patterns.Clinical bladder evaluation is particularly advantageous in low-resource settings,as it avoids the risks and costs associated with urodynamic studies while reflecting real-life patient conditions more effectively.Despite its benefits,no validation studies currently exist for clinical bladder assessment,and its parameters,like maximum voided volume,remain underexplored compared to urodynamic measures.Given the accessibility,affordability,and practicality of this approach,it holds promise for widespread application,especially in primary care settings and among economically disadvantaged populations.This editorial describes the process step-by-step and highlights its role in improving patient outcomes while minimizing complications.

文摘Neurogenic bladder (NB) mainly occurs in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). The pathological basis of NB is the occurrence of lesions in the urination control center, which requires systematic treatment. Western medicine has many treatment methods for this disease, which can alleviate the symptoms of the disease. However, the radical effect is not ideal and there are many adverse reactions. In comparison, acupuncture can improve the residual urine volume of NB patients and regulate the related indexes of urodynamics. There are many kinds of acupuncture therapies, such as simple acupuncture and moxibustion, which can comprehensively improve the therapeutic effect and obtain a better disease prognosis. Therefore, this article elaborates on the pathogenesis of SCI complicated with NB, the treatment mechanism, and treatment methods of acupuncture and moxibustion to provide a reference for clinical treatment.

文摘Objective:To observe the effects of electroacupuncture on urodynamics and intramedullary apoptosis related factor B cell lymphoma gene-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2 related protein X(Bax)and brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)in neurogenic bladder rats after supersacral spinal cord injury.Methods:A total of 60 female SD rats,SPF grade,were randomly selected,12 rats in the blank group and 12 rats in the sham operation group,and the remaining 36 rats were made models.Of these 36 rats,24 rats meeting the model standard were randomized into the model group and electroacupuncture group,with 12 rats in each group.The neurogenic bladder models after supracacral spinal cord injury were prepared by the Hassan Shaker spinal cord transection method,via combining the previous model study experience.At the end of spinal shock stage,"Dazhui(大椎GV14)""Zhongji(中极CV 3)""Ciliao(次髎BL 32)",and"Sanyinjiao(三阴交SP 6)"were selected for electroacupuncture.Observation on the histomorphological changes of bladder detrusor and spinal cord in rats was conducted by HE staining.The apoptosis rate of spinal cord cells was measured by TUNEL assay.The maximum bladder volume and compliance were measured by urodynamics test.The protein expressions of Bcl-2,Bax,and BDNF in spinal cord tissues were measured by Western blot assay.The expressions of Bcl-2,Bax,and BDNF mRNA were measured by RT-PCR assay.Results:(1)The results of HE staining showed that compared with the blank group and sham operation group,in the model group the bladder epithelial cell structure was destroyed,the detrusor muscle fibers proliferated,and there were severe bleeding changes,the spinal cord tissue was disordered,the structure was destroyed,the cell space was enlarged,and accompanied by a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration and cystic cavity formation.Compared with the model group,in the electroacupuncture group,the intact bladder epithelial cells increased,the detrusor muscle fiber proliferation decreased,the bleeding changes decreased,the complete structural area of spinal cord tissues increased,the cell space decreased,the levels were clearer,and the cystic cavity decreased.(2)The results of TUNEL assay indicated that the TUNEL positive rate of spinal cord cells in the model group was significantly higher than that in the blank group and sham group(both P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the TUNEL positive rate of spinal cord cells in the electroacupuncture group was significantly reduced(P<0.05).(3)The results of urodynamics test suggested that compared with the blank group and sham operation group,the maximum bladder volume and compliance of the model group were significantly reduced(all P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the maximum bladder volume and compliance were significantly increased in the electroacupuncture group(both P<0.05).(4)The results of Western blot assay indicated that,compared with the blank group and sham operation group,in the model group the protein contents of Bcl-2 and BDNF were significantly reduced(all P<0.05),while the protein content of Bax in the model group was significantly increased(both P<0.05).(5)The results of RT-PCR assay indicated that,compared with blank group and sham operation group,in the model group the intramedullary Bcl-2 and BDNF mRNA were significantly reduced(all P<0.05),and Bax mRNA was significantly increased(both P<0.05).Conclusion:Electroacupuncture at"GV14""CV3""BL32",and"SP6"can promote the repair of bladder detrusor,improve the maximum bladder volume and compliance of bladder,promote morphological repair of bladder detrusor,reduce spinal cord cell apoptosis rate,thus to restore the function of bladder.This is maybe related with the electroacupuncture’s two-way regulatory mechanism of increased expression of protein and gene of Bcl-2 and BDNF and decreased expression of protein and gene of Bax in spinal cord tissues.
文摘This article reviews the research progress of rehabilitation treatment and nursing care of patients with neurogenic bladder after spinal cord injury,in order to provide reference for the rehabilitation treatment and nursing care of patients.We reviewed recent medical literature on patients with neurogenic bladder,focusing on neurogenic bladder caused by spinal cord injury.We analyzed 30 recent of publications in patients with neurogenic bladder after spinal cord injury,in addition to reviewing and evaluating the commonly used rehabilitation nursing methods for neurogenic bladder.Psychological counseling is a vital aspect which cannot be neglected in the process of neurogenic bladder rehabilitation.Hitherto,the commonly used drug and surgical treatments may have negatively impacted the mental health of patients in varying degrees.However,in clinical practice,applying intermittent catheterization in patients who have neurogenic bladder with spinal cord injury may help improve patients’life quality,mitigate psychological burden,and reduce negative emotions.
文摘A complete spinal cord injury model was established in experimental rabbits using the spinal cord clip compression method. Urodynamic examination was performed 2 weeks later to determine neurogenic bladder status. The rabbits were treated with anodal block stimulation at sacral anterior roots for 4 weeks. Electrical stimulation of sacral anterior roots improved urodynamic parameters of neurogenic bladder in rabbit models of complete spinal cord injury, effectively promoted urinary function, and relieved urinary retention. Immunohistochemistry results showed that a balance was achieved among expression of muscarinic receptor subunits M2, M3, ATP-gated ion channel P2X3 receptors, and 132-adrenergic receptor, and nerve growth factor expression decreased. These results suggested that long-term sacral anterior root stimulation of anodal block could＇be used to treat neurogenic bladder in a rabbit model of complete spinal cord injury.
文摘Objective： To investigate the effect and mechanism of electroacupuncture（EA） in the intervention of neurogenic bladder（NB） caused by suprasacral spinal cord injury（SCI）.Methods： The total 60 female Sprague-Dawley（SD） rats were divided into blank group, sham operation group by adopting random number table method, with 12 rats in each group. The remaining rats were made into models through operation, and 24 successful model rats were randomly divided into model group and EA group, with 12 rats in each group. Since the 19 th day after modeling, EA was conducted at ＂Cìliào＂（次髎BL 32）, ＂Zhōngjí＂（中极CV 3）,＂Sānyīnjiāo＂（三阴交SP 6） and ＂Dàzhuī＂（大椎GV 14） in EA group, remaining the needle for 20 min every time. The intervention was performed for once a day, and7 consecutive days were needed. The rest of the three groups were only tied up for the same time. Urodynamics test was conducted after the intervention. The contents of PACAP-38 and PAC1 R of the spinal cord of the injury site were detected by Western blot.Results： Compared with the blank group. there were no significant differences in the bladder capacity,leak point pressure, bladder compliance and PACAP-38 and PAC1 R contents in spinal cord in sham operation group; compared with the sham operation group, the maximum bladder capacity and the bladder compliance in the model group were lower（both P〈0.05）, the leak point pressure was higher（P〈0.05）,the contents of PACAP-38 and PAC1 R were lower（both P〈0.05）; compared with the model group, the maximum bladder capacity and the bladder compliance in the EA group were higher（both P〈0.05）, the leak point pressure was lower（P〈0.05）, the contents of PACAP-38 and PAC1 R were higher（both P〈0.05）.Conclusion： EA at BL 32, CV 3, SP 6 and GV 14 can improve the bladder function of NB rats of suprasacral SCI, and its mechanism may be related to the increase expression of PACAP-38 and PAC1 R protein in the injured spinal cord tissue.
文摘Neurogenic bladder is a dysfunction of the lower urinary tract caused by nervous system disor- der. We investigated the trends in publication of articles under the topic ＂neurogenic bladder＂ using bibliometric analysis. Articles on neurogenic bladder, published between 1995 and 2014, were retrieved from the ISI Web of Science citation database. We analyzed the search results for authors, countries, institutions, journals, and top-cited papers. A total of 1,904 articles were re- trieved. There was a small increase in the number of articles on neurogenic bladder from 1995 （n = 43） to 2014 （n = 117）. The USA was the leading country in the total number of articles （n = 598）. However, the number of publications from China has rapidly increased, and China was ranked second in 2014. Emmanuel Chartier-Kastler （n = 65） was the most productive author, and University of Paris VI （Paris 6） （n = 61） was the most productive institution. The Journal of Urology published the greatest number of artides on this topic （n = 285）. Articles on neurogenic bladder were often published in a professional journal under the category Urology ＆ Nephrology, Neurosciences ＆ Neurology, or Rehabilitation. Visualization analysis based on co-citation networks was conducted using CiteSpace III. Visualization analysis revealed that the hot spots in neurogenic bladder were botulinum toxin-A, prazosin, bethanechol, and afferent pathways. These findings provide new insight into the publication trends and hot spots in neurogenic bladder.

文摘Objective:This study examines the outcome of augmentation cystoplasty(AC)in children with stages III and IV chronic kidney disease(CKD)secondary to neurogenic bladder in which transplantation was not imminent.Methods:Hospital records of all children with CKD stages III and IV who underwent AC between 2008 and 2017 were retrieved to study outcome and complications including estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR,National Kidney Foundation Calculator),somatic growth(percentiles,compared with population data),and febrile urinary tract infections(fUTIs)requiring admission.Statistical analysis was performed using R.Results:AC was performed in 13 children with CKD stages III and IV(10 girls;median 8.0 years)with median follow-up of 51 months.Patients had incontinence(10/13),reflux(7/13),and hydronephrosis(13/13)despite antimuscarinics and intermittent catheterization.Bladder capacity was 74%of expected and median compliance was 5 mL/cm H20(inter-quartile range 4 mL/cm H20).All underwent ileocystoplasty(25 cm bowel).One each had nephrectomy and mitrofanoff conduit.All had resolution of incontinence.One had acute kidney injury that recovered.Initial eGFR at presentation(24 mL/min/1.73 m2)improved with conservative management alone(52 mL/min/1.73 m2,p=0.004).This improved further 1 year following AC(61 mL/min/1.73 m2,p=0.036)with stable function at 7 years.There was improvement in somatic growth,hydronephrosis,and fUTI despite no ureteric re-implantation.Conclusion:AC carries acceptable morbidity in children with CKD stages III and IV secondary to neurogenic bladder.Surgery is effective with improvements in continence,eGFR,somatic growth,and propensity for fUTIs.Ureteric re-implantation might not be necessary.
文摘BACKGROUND Intestinal seromuscular bladder augmentation(SMBA)surgery has produced no mucosal-related complications,but its outcomes need to be studied.AIM To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of SMBA in the treatment of children with neurogenic bladder.METHODS A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of children with SMBA was performed from March 2008 to February 2018,and the data were compared with those of children receiving standard cystoplasty(SC).RESULTS In a cohort of 67 children who underwent bladder augmentation,the 46 children in the SC group had an average age of 10.6 years and a follow-up time of 36 mo,and the 21 children in the SMBA group had an average age of 7.6 years and a follow-up time of 29.7 mo.The preoperative and postoperative bladder volumes in the SMBA group were 151.7 mL and 200.4 mL,respectively,and those in the SC group were 173.9 mL and 387.0 mL,respectively.No significant difference in preoperative urinary dynamic parameters was found between the two groups,but the difference after operation was statistically significant.The main complications after SMBA were residual ureteral reflux and failed bladder augmentation,with incidences of 33.3%and 28.6%,respectively.In all 6 patients with failed augmentation in the SMBA group,ileum seromuscular patches were used for augmentation,and SC was chosen for reaugmentation.During reoperation,patch contracture and fibrosis were observed.CONCLUSION The improvement of urinary dynamic parameters in the SMBA group was significantly lower than that in the SC group.Children with SMBA had a higher probability of patch contracture and reaugmentation,which might be related to impaired blood supply and urine stimulation,and the sigmoid colon patch should be the priority.
文摘Neurogenic bladder （ NB） dysfunction caused by spinal cord injury （ SCI ） or diseases of the central nervous system or peripheral nerves is a major medical and social problem. Traditional treatments to NB include medication, injection of Botulinum toxin A into the detrusor, neuromodulation and surgery. There are also emerging approaches, such as tissue engineering, stem cell transplantation and gene therapy. In recent years, we have carried out explorations in both therapeutic areas and tried to translate basic research into clinical practice. This paper reviews our work in this regard, and provides references for future research.

Conclusion: the application of simple bladder volume-pressure measurement technology in neurogenic bladder combined with intermittent catheterization can help restore autonomous urination, reduce the incidence of symptomatic urinary tract infection, help increase bladder capacity, reduce residual urine volume, and higher quality of life for patients, which is worthy of practice in various medical institutions.
文摘OBJECTIVE: To identify and separate the ventral root from dorsal root, which is the key for success of the artificial somatic-autonomic reflex pathway procedure for neurogenic bladder after spinal cord injury (SCI). Here we report the results of intra-operating room monitoring with 10 paralyzed patients. METHODS: Ten male volunteers with complete suprasacral SCI underwent the artificial somatic-autonomic procedure under general anesthesia. Vastus medialis, tibialis anticus and gastrocnemius medialis of the left lower limb were monitored for electromyogram (EMG) activities resulted from L4, L5, and S1 stimulation respectively to differentiate the ventral root from dorsal root. A Laborie Urodynamics system was connected with a three channel urodynamic catheter inserted into the bladder. The L2 and L3 roots were stimulated separately while the intravesical pressure was monitored to evaluate the function of each root. RESULTS: The thresholds of stimulation on ventral root were 0.02 ms duration, 0.2-0.4 mA, (mean 0.3 mA+/-0.07 mA), compared with 0.2-0.4 ms duration, 1.5-3 mA (mean 2.3 mA+/-0.5 mA) for dorsal root (P
文摘BACKGROUND Augmentation cystoplasty is indispensable in many pediatric diseases,especially neurogenic bladder.Various methods and materials are used to augment the bladder,and these methods are associated with different shortcomings and complications.AIM The present study reported the mid-term outcomes of patients undergoing various bladder augmentation procedures in a single institution,and assessed whether seromuscular cystoplasty lined with urothelium(SCLU)provided better urodynamic results than auto-augmentation(AA).METHODS A retrospective review of 96 patients undergoing various augmentation methods between 2003 and 2018 was performed.The patients were divided into three groups according to the type of augmentation,and their outcomes were compared.All patients developed neurogenic bladder due to myelomeningocele or sacrococcygeal teratoma.The clinical data of all patients were collected.RESULTS The mean ages at surgery in the three groups(standard cystoplasty[SC],SCLU,AA)were 10.8,7.5,and 4.8 years,respectively,with mean follow-ups of 36,61,and 36 mo,respectively.The mean preoperative and postoperative bladder capacities of the SC,SCLU,and AA groups were 174±11.7 vs.387±13.7(P<0.0001),165±12.2 vs.240±14.7(P=0.0002),and 138±16.7 vs.181±9.9(P=0.0360),respectively.Compared with the AA group,the SCLU procedure did not have better postoperative urodynamic parameters.Incontinence was reduced in most patients.The mean times of clean intermittent catheterization per day in the SC,SCLU,and AA groups were 5.6,7.8,and 8.2,respectively.The main complications of the SC group were recurrent urinary tract infections(8%)and bladder calculi(6%).Re-augmentation was done in patients in the SCLU(8)and AA(3)groups.CONCLUSION SC provided sufficient bladder capacity and improved compliance with acceptable complications.After AA and SCLU,the patients acquired limited increases in bladder capacity and compliance with a high rate of re-augmentation.Compared with AA,SCLU did not yield better postoperative urodynamic parameters.
文摘The correlation between the anatomic site of spinal cord injury and real-time conditions of bladder and urethral function was assessed in order to provide a reasonable basis for the clinical treatment of neurogenic bladder. A total of 134 patients with spinal cord injuries （105 males, 29 females; averaged 34.1 years old） were involved in this retrospective analysis, including urodynamic evaluation, clinical examination and imaging for anatomical position, and Bors-Comarr classification. The associa- tions between the levels of injury and urodynamic findings were analyzed. The results showed that mean follow-up duration was 16.7 months （range 8-27 months）. Complete spinal cord injuries occurred in 21 cases, and incomplete spinal cord injuries in 113 cases. Of the 43 patients with upper motor neuron （UMN） injuries, hyperref/exia and （or） detrusor sphincter dyssynergia were demonstrated in 30 （69.8%）, 31 （72.1%） suffered low bladder compliance （less than 12.5 mL/cmH20）, 28 （65.1%） had high detrusor leak point pressures （greater than 40 cmH20）, and 34 （79.1%） had residual urine. Of the 91 patients with lower motor neuron （LMN） injuries, areflexia occurred in 78 （85.7%）, high compliance in 75 （82.4%）, low leak point pressures in 80 （87.9%）, and residual urine in 87 （95.6%）, respectively. The associations between the anatomical site of spinal cord injury and urodynamic findings were ill defined. In patients with spinal cord injury, this study revealed a significant association between the level of injury and the type of voiding dysfunction. The anatomical site of spinal cord injury can not be predicted in real-time condition of bladder and urethral function. Management of neurogenic bladder in patients with spinal cord injury must be based on urodynamic findings rather than inferences from the neurologic evaluation.

文摘Pudendal nerve plays an important role in urine storage and voiding.Our hypothesis is that a neuroprosthetic device placed in the pudendal nerve trunk can modulate bladder function after suprasacral spinal cord injury.We had confirmed the inhibitory pudendal-to-bladder reflex by stimulating either the branch or the trunk of the pudendal nerve.This study explored the excitatory pudendal-to-bladder reflex in beagle dogs,with intact or injured spinal cord,by electrical stimulation of the pudendal nerve trunk.The optimal stimulation frequency was approximately 15–25 Hz.This excitatory effect was dependent to some extent on the bladder volume.We conclude that stimulation of the pudendal nerve trunk is a promising method to modulate bladder function.
