FIG. 6.
(A) A representative EMG activity tracing from a control rat. Baseline EMG was stable when bladder pressure was near 0 cm H2O. The arrow (EMG at baseline) indicates a randomly selected 10 s segment used for ARV analysis. The EMG at leak point arrow shows the variability of the measurement at LPP. (B) A representative LPP graph from a control rat after spinal transection. Intravesical pressure was elevated by raising the height of reservoir gradually by 2–3 cm every 2 min. The arrow indicates when urinary leakage was observed. No bladder contraction was detected. ARV, average rectified value.
