Biofeedback training aided by urodynamic instrumentation produced significant clinical improvement in 4 of 8 urological patients. The display of electromyographic activity of the periurethral striated muscles was facilitated by the use of a new intraurethral catheter with 5 surface mounted electrodes. This modality of treatment seems worth considering for selected patients with urinary retention or urinary incontinence.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of bladder function training combined with pelvic floor biofeedback electrical stimulation in the treatment of neurogenic bladder and its impact on urodynamics.
Methods: This was a clinical comparative study. A total of 120 patients with neurogenic bladder after spinal cord injury admitted to Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital of Capital Medical University and Beijing Shijingshan Hospital from January 2023 to December 2023 were randomly divided into two groups (n= 60/group).

Background: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a prevalent condition that significantly impacts the quality of life of both patients and their partners. Current therapeutic approaches often struggle to address the diverse needs of all patients. In addition, the efficacy of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) in improving ED symptoms has been insufficiently investigated.

Aims: Insights into the role of the urethra in maintaining continence and in normal voiding have been provided with advances in imaging techniques. Also, functional urethral testing is used to understand which treatments are optimal for women with functional bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), but which testing is better for which treatment? This review aims to describe our current understanding of female urethral function and dysfunction and to provide future research directions for treating functional female urethral disorders.
Materials And Methods: This is a consensus report of the proceedings of a research proposal discussed at the annual International Consultation on Incontinence-Research Society (ICI-RS), 6th-8th June 2024 (Bristol, UK): "Do we need to re-focus on functional female urethral disorders in lower urinary tract dysfunction?
