Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Antonio Avelino"
Antonio Avelino's research primarily focuses on the effects of spinal cord injury (SCI) on urinary dysfunction, exploring comparative outcomes between different experimental models such as spinal cord transection and contusion in rats.
His studies reveal significant tissue rearrangements in the urethra following SCI, indicating that both the bladder and urethra undergo complex remodeling that contributes to urinary impairments.
Avelino's work also investigates the biochemical changes associated with detrusor underactivity and bladder outlet obstruction, highlighting the role of urinary ATP levels and the responsiveness to deobstruction treatments, thus advancing the understanding of neurogenic bladder conditions. !*
