Social stress alters bladder urodynamics. A and B show representative cystometry recordings of bladder pressure and bladder capacity of a control rat (A) and a rat that was exposed to the resident-intruder stress for 7 consecutive days (B). Note that the bladder of the stressed rat shows numerous non-micturition contractions, longer intermicturition intervals and greater bladder capacity.
