Effects of magnetic stimulation on neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction in patients with spinal cord injury: A systematic review and meta-analysis

A BSTRACT Objectives: Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) after spinal cord injury (SCI) imposes a major burden and existing conservative treatments often provide suboptimal control. Materials and Methods: This study provides the most up-to-date systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy of magnetic stimulation (MS) for SCI-related NLUTD. Ovid Medline, Ovid Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, ClinicalTrials.gov, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Airiti Library were searched for randomized controlled trials comparing MS with sham stimulation or conventional management.
