Cerebral activation during micturition in normal men.
Specific cerebral lesions have shown the crucial role of the brain in the control of micturition. The precise identification of the anatomical cerebral structures involved in micturition can contribute to a better understanding of the control of micturition and the development of therapeutic models. Various neuropathological and animal studies have referred to the medulla oblongata, pons, limbi...
متن کاملCaffeine enhances micturition through neuronal activation in micturition centers.
Caffeine may promote incontinence through its diuretic effect, particularly in individuals with underlying detrusor overactivity, in addition to increasing muscle contraction of the bladder smooth muscle. Caffeine may also affect bladder function via central micturition centers, including the medial preoptic area, ventrolateral periaqueductal gray, and pontine micturition center. However, the b...
متن کاملEffect of satiety on brain activation during chocolate tasting in men and women.
BACKGROUND The brain plays a crucial role in the decision to eat, integrating multiple hormonal and neural signals. A key factor controlling food intake is selective satiety, ie, the phenomenon that the motivation to eat more of a food decreases more than does the motivation to eat foods not eaten. OBJECTIVE We investigated the effect of satiation with chocolate on the brain activation associ...
متن کاملEstradiol treatment altered anticholinergic-related brain activation during working memory in postmenopausal women
Estradiol has been shown to affect cholinergic modulation of cognition in human and nonhuman animal models. This study examined the brain-based interaction of estradiol treatment and anticholinergic challenge in postmenopausal women during the performance of a working memory task and functional MRI. Twenty-four postmenopausal women were randomly and blindly placed on 1mg oral 17-β estradiol or ...
متن کاملA PET study on brain control of micturition in humans.
Although the brain plays a crucial role in the control of micturition, little is known about the structures involved. Identification of these areas is important, because their dysfunction is though to cause urge incontinence, a major problem in the elderly. In the cat, three areas in the brainstem and diencephalon are specifically implicated in the control of micturition: the dorsomedial pontin...
