American and Japanese rats of the same species: are they same?
Growth curve and eating behavior of rats from different countries exhibit significant differences even within the same species. It is important that such differences be taken into account when reproducing animal models created elsewhere.
Intermittent (self-) catheterisation is a safe and valuable technique in older people with significant post-void residuals owing to detrusor underactivity. Urinary continence is restored, urge, daytime frequency and nocturia are decreased, and the urinary tract infection rate is diminished, resulting in improved quality of life. Therefore, intermittent (self-) catheterisation is strongly recommended in older people.
