Rats underwent sham VD (SH-VD), VD with sham DNC-TENS (VD SH-TENS) or VD with DNC-TENS, bilateral crush of MBPN crush injury (MBPNC) with sham DNC-TENS, or MBPNC with DNC-TENS. Stimulation was delivered to the dorsal region of the clitoral sheath, immediately and on days 2 and 4 after VD or MBPNC. The outcome parameters were EUS electromyograms (EMGs, amplitude and frequency) and cystometrograms (CMGs). Animals were evaluated at seven and 14 days after VD or SH-VD and at day 9 after the nerve crush.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>In SH-VD animals, the EUS EMG activity increased concurrently with bladder contraction. Tonic and bursting responses also were observed. VD significantly impaired EUS and CMG characteristics in the first week postlesion; in the VD SH-TENS group, the bursting EMG response was abolished; the amplitude of tonic activity decreased (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.0001), and the duration of bladder contraction decreased. DNC-TENS facilitated recovery of bursting and tonic EUS EMG activity after VD (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.0001). As with VD, MBPNC abolished EUS bursting activity and decreased (∼80%) tonic activity. TENS significantly improved EMG and CMG parameters.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>VD and MBPNC significantly impair EUS EMG activity. DNC-TENS facilitates functional recovery of the EUS neural circuitry by promoting neuroregeneration and increases bladder compliance. Further studies are required to determine whether DNC-TENS is an effective noninvasive neuromodulation therapy to alleviate or prevent symptoms of stress urinary incontinence associated with childbirth trauma in women.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19152,"journal":{"name":"Neuromodulation","volume":"28 5","pages":"Pages 757-766"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143743455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
