Better understanding of the underlying working mechanism of the neural control of the lower urinary tract will facilitate the treatment of dysfunction with a neurogenic cause. We developed a computer model to study the effect of a neural control system on lower urinary tract behavior. To model the m

This paper presents a series of five models that were formulated for describing the neural control of the lower urinary tract in humans. A parsimonious formulation of the effect of the sympathetic system, the pre-optic area, and urethral afferents on the simulated behavior are included. In spite of

Rapid tests for bacteriuria have the highest value, if the test result is available while the patient is with the doctor. At the bacteriological laboratory rapid testing of samples obtained by mail may be cost-effective but is of little clinical value. In a previous study performed at a health care
