Bladder problems and Parkinson's: Research papers

Urinary dysfunction in early and untreated Parkinson's disease Urinary dysfunction, manifested primarily as storage disorders with subclinical voiding disorders and normal anal-sphincter electromyography, occurs in early and untreated PD patients 01 December 2011
Bladder, bowel, and sexual dysfunction in Parkinson's disease Bladder dysfunction (urinary urgency/frequency), bowel dysfunction (constipation), and sexual dysfunction (erectile dysfunction) (also called pelvic organ dysfunctions) are common nonmotor disorders in Parkinson's disease (PD). In contrast to motor disorders, pelvic organ autonomic dysfunctions are often nonresponsive to levodopa treatment. 12 September 2011

Use of botulinim toxin-A for the treatment of overactive bladder symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease Intravesical botulinum toxin injection is an effective treatment modality with local action and no central nervous system side effects in patients with Parkinson's disease. 20 July 2010
Late-stage Parkinson's disease: the Barcelona and Lisbon cohort Studies of late stages of Parkinson's disease (LS-PD) are limited. To provide an adequate health plan for patients in these most advanced stages, accurate information on their clinical condition is necessary. 23 April 2010
Bladder symptoms assessed with overactive bladder questionnaire in Parkinson's disease In Parkinson's disease (PD) the urinary dysfunction manifests primarily with symptoms of overactive bladder (OAB). The OAB questionnaire (OAB-q) is a measure designed to assess the impact of OAB symptoms on health-related quality of life. In this study, we quantified the urinary symptoms in a large cohort of PD patients by using the OAB-q short form. Possible correlations between the OAB-q and clinical features were tested. 25 March 2010
