Micturition
Definition:
(n.) The act of voiding urine; also, a morbidly frequent passing of the urine, in consequence of disease.
Example Sentences:
(1) Attention should be paid to the circumstances under which the chart is applied, as normal micturition behaviour seems to be highly dependent on social factors.
(2) Recently, direct pathways from the dorsolateral pons to the ON, probably involved in supraspinal micturition control, have been reported (Holstege et al., 1986).
(3) Micturition cystourethrography, repeated in 15 patients at the end of the treatment, showed a clear-cut improvement of bladder neck suspension defects in all but 2 patients.
(4) When administered to adult patients with urge incontinence (generally as a 25mg twice-daily dose) terodiline reduces diurnal and nocturnal micturition frequency and incontinence episodes.
(5) At 12 months TURP had also improved micturition time and voided volume, which TUI had not.
(6) Initial experience with the use of bromocriptine in 24 patients with troublesome micturition symptoms associated with an unstable bladder is described.
(7) Our observations also suggest that post-synaptic nerve degeneration (denervation) plays an important role in the increased sensitivity of the detrusor muscle to acetylcholine in the parasympathetically decentralized urinary bladder, whether denervation is due to trans-synaptic degeneration or impairment of micturition.
(8) Free voiding and micturition alongside a fine indwelling urethral catheter of similar voided volumes of urine were recorded for 43 men over 50 years of age.
(9) VIP, a putative neurotransmitter in C-fiber bladder afferents, inhibited micturition reflexes when injected intrathecally (2-10 micrograms) in intact cats but facilitated micturition reflexes in spinal cats (doses 0.1-1 micrograms, i.t.).
(10) Detubularized orthotopic low-pressure bladder substitute following radical cystoprostatectomy allows micturition per urethram and urinary continence.
(11) The time from infusion to micturition, from opening pressure to return to baseline, and from the beginning to the end of the CMG were also recorded.

(14) Bladder responses were clearly altered in alloxan treated rats as compared to normal rats, as shown by an increased vesical weight, an increased threshold for micturition reflex and a reduced rate of rhythmic contraction.
