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.
  • (12) Intravesical administration of hyperosmolar NaCl or urea solutions produced a concentration-dependent stimulatory action on the micturition reflex in urethane-anesthetized rats.
  • (13) By means of an extracellular glass microelectrode method, unitary discharges synchronized with the grouping discharges in the pelvic vesical branch with a rhythm of 2.2-2.5 Hz were recorded from the pontine micturition center in the dorsolateral pontine tegmentum.
  • (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.
