Does neurotrophin therapy improve recovery of the neuromuscular continence mechanism following simulated birth injury in rats?
Continuous targeted neurotrophin therapy accelerates continence recovery after simulated childbirth injury likely through stimulating neuroregeneration and facilitating EUS recovery and re-innervation. Neurotrophins or other therapies targeting neuromuscular regeneration may be useful for treating SUI related to failure of the neuromuscular continence mechanism.
We found that, in our Unit, clinicians appeared to use prior non-response to clomifene as a reason for prescribing a higher starting dose of gonadotropins in IVF treatment, a practice that is not evidence-based.
