The main harm of neurogenic bladder(NB) lies in the upper urinary tract dysfunction caused by lower urinary tract voiding dysfunction,serving as the leading cause of mortality in patients with paralysis.However,the specific mechanism of acupuncture treatment for NB after spinal cord injury is still unclear.Therefore,conducting animal experiments before clinical treatment is necessary.Given the lack of unified standards for animal models and the mechanism of acupuncture treatment for NB,this study provided explanations from multiple aspects such as animal models,pathophysiological mechanisms,relevant indicators of disease development and outcomes.On one hand,it provides some ideas for conducting corresponding experimental research,and on the other hand,it provides a reliable theoretical basis for clinical research and treatment of NB using acupuncture.
