Does COVID-19 cause or worsen LUT dysfunction, what are the mechanisms and possible treatments? ICI-RS 2023 (2024)
Journal Article
Khullar, V., Lemmon, B., Acar, O., Abrams, P., & Vahabi, B. (in press). Does COVID-19 cause or worsen LUT dysfunction, what are the mechanisms and possible treatments? ICI-RS 2023. Neurourology and Urodynamics, https://doi.org/10.1002/nau.25441

Introduction: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and produced a worldwide pandemic in 2020. There have been 770,875,433 confirmed cases and 6,959,316 attributed deaths worldwide unt...

How does the lower urinary tract contribute to bladder sensation? ICI-RS 2023 (2023)
Journal Article
Grundy, L., Wyndaele, J. J., Hashitani, H., Vahabi, B., Wein, A., Abrams, P., …Fry, C. H. (in press). How does the lower urinary tract contribute to bladder sensation? ICI-RS 2023. Neurourology and Urodynamics, https://doi.org/10.1002/nau.25316

Aim: Bladder sensation is critical for coordinating voluntary micturition to maintain healthy bladder function. Sensations are initiated by the activation of sensory afferents that innervate throughout the bladder wall. However, the physiological com...

The frequency-dependence of pre- and postganglionic nerve stimulation of pig and rat bladder (2021)
Journal Article
Kitney, D., Crook, J., Chakrabarty, B., Kanai, A., Vahabi, B., Lovick, T., & Fry, C. (2021). The frequency-dependence of pre- and postganglionic nerve stimulation of pig and rat bladder. International Neurourology Journal, 25(3), 210-218. https://doi.org/10.5213/INJ.2142002.001

Purpose: The urinary bladder generates phasic contractions via action potentials generated in pre- and then postganglionic neurons. Whilst the frequency-dependence of postganglionic neurons to generate contractions has been quantified, the dynamic ra...
