Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Is Indispensable to Continence Recovery after a Dual Nerve and Muscle Childbirth Injury Model

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Is Indispensable to Continence Recovery after a Dual Nerve and Muscle Childbirth Injury Model

In women, stress urinary incontinence (SUI), leakage of urine from increased abdominal pressure, is correlated with pudendal nerve (PN) injury during childbirth. Expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is dysregulated in a dual nerve and muscle injury model of childbirth. We aimed to...
