Abstract
Impaired thermoregulation and heat intolerance may be intrinsic to autonomic dysfunction in Parkinson's disease due to disturbances in perspiration regulation. Thermoregulatory impairment leading to hyperthermia/heatstroke can be accentuated with the usage of anticholinergics, which block the ability to sweat. Oxybutynin chloride is one of the most used anticholinergic agents in clinical practice for the management of detrusor hyperreflexia secondary to neurogenic bladder dysfunction and is often used in the setting of Parkinson's disease. We present a rare instance of oxybutynin-induced heatstroke in an elderly patient with Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
The neurological polymorphism of Pure Cerebellar Syndromes (not including the heredodegenerative patterns) led the Authors to try to verify the possible correlations between neurological damages and urodynamic findings. Material and Methods. From 2001 to 2006 thirty patients affected by PCS were studied. They underwent several neurological and urological investigations, including videourodynamics. Results. Sixteen cases (76%) showed urinary incontinence due to non-inhibited detrusor contractions, with no evidence of vesico-sphincter dyssynergia; the remaining patients showed a moderate degree of incoordination. Conclusions. The authors highlight the basic role of cerebellum in modulating the motor activities and the coordination of the bladder-sphincter structures, also in the light of the outcomes gathered in these patients, who were not suffering from other superior structure deficiencies.

Abstract
Overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) has a high prevalence within the population and has a negative effect on quality of life. Although the precise pathophysiology has yet to be fully elucidated, pharmacotherapeutic agents have been developed targeting two main pathways, antimuscarinic drugs and β3-adrenoreceptor agonists. Conservative management strategies, for example, bladder training, should be used as first-line treatment, with pharmacotherapy used as an adjunct if this is insufficiently effective. Antimuscarinics have a moderate effect on treating the symptoms of OAB, are associated with side effects, particularly dry mouth, and have low adherence rates in the long term. No single agent has consistently shown superiority over another. Antimuscarinics can affect cognition and may contribute to the anticholinergic burden in elderly patients. Mirabegron, a β3-agonist, appears to be as effective as antimuscarinics in improving symptoms of OAB with fewer side effects and improved adherence, and is currently recommended if treatment with antimuscarinics has failed. A combination of an antimuscarinic and β3-agonist may be worth considering if symptoms remain refractory or to reduce the side-effect profile associated with higher doses of antimuscarinics.Level of evidence: Not applicable.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We retrospectively evaluated the frequency of changing to 4/day intermittent catheterization (IC) in patients with subacute spinal cord injury (SCI) who had been initiated on IC 6 times a day and started oral anticholinergic treatment following urodynamic investigation for decreased maximum cystometric capacity and undergone a follow-up urodynamic study within 45 days. The goal of the study was to see if the second urodynamic study was necessary. METHODS The frequency of shifting to 4/day IC was investigated retrospectively in 27 patients with subacute SCI who were prescribed 6/day IC. RESULTS In 25 of 27 patients a bladder capacity of 400 ml or more was reached in urodynamic study carried out in the following 45 days and the patients were shifted to 4/day IC. There was a significant difference between the anticholinergic pre-treatment (293 ± 39 ml) and post-treatment (531 ± 81 ml) capacities (P < 0.001). The mean increase in bladder capacity in all patients was 237.6 ± 79.5 ml (83.5 ± 32.1%). CONCLUSION Patients with subacute SCI who were prescribed 6/day IC and were given an oral anticholinergic drug can be shifted to 4/day IC after 45 days without performing an early control urodynamic study if the patients use the drug properly. However in the long-run, periodic follow-up urodynamic studies should be carried out at appropriate intervals, according to the patients' clinical findings.

Abstract
PURPOSE We investigated the treatment outcomes according to neuropathic bladder sphincter dysfunction (NBSD) type after oral oxybutynin (OBT) treatment in children with NBSD caused by myelodysplasia. METHODS Among 334 pediatric patients who were diagnosed with NBSD caused by myelodysplasia, only children treated with oral OBT for more than 1 year with pre- and post-treatment urodynamic studies and dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) were retrospectively reviewed. We compared pre- and post-treatment urodynamic parameters including maximum cystometric capacity (MCC), MCC/estimated bladder capacity (EBC), and compliance by NBSD type in children. We also compared renal scarring on pre- and post-treatment DMSA by NBSD type in children. RESULTS Our study population was comprised of 81 children (45 boys and 36 girls), with a mean age of 4.2 ± 3.4 years. The mean follow-up duration was 4.5 (range 1.0-15.1) years. After OBT treatment, MCC was increased significantly in all types of NBSD from 110.3 ± 62.2 to 202.3 ± 103.9 ml (p < 0.05), compliance was significantly improved from 6.4 ± 6.1 to 11.1 ± 9.6 ml/cmH2O (p < 0.05), but MCC/EBC was slightly decreased from 75.2 ± 46.9 to 69.8 ± 33.3 % (p = 0.40). Sub-analyzed by NBSD type, the pre-treatment compliance of children with acontractile detrusor with spastic sphincter (n = 16) was markedly decreased compared with other types of NBSD. Acontractile detrusor with spastic sphincter demonstrated the worst renal deterioration on DMSA. CONCLUSIONS Although increases in MCC/EBC were limited, oral OBT treatment markedly improved MCC and compliance in all NBSD types. Children who had acontractile detrusor with spastic sphincter had a relatively high probability of renal deterioration and required specific attention.

Abstract
Antimuscarinic agents are the first-line choice for the treatment of neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO). The currently available antimuscarinic drugs have been widely studied in patients presenting idiopathic detrusor overactivity; however, investigations evaluating the effects of these drugs on NDO are scant, particularly with regard to cost-effectiveness analyses. A pharmacoeconomic evaluation was performed to compare the costs and effectiveness of oxybutynin and tolterodine in two different formulations, extended (ER) and immediate-release (IR), for the treatment of NDO (based on Brazilian maximal consumer price index). A systematic review of literature was conducted in order to obtain significant clinical and urodynamic data (based on expert opinion), concerning the effects of these drugs in the neurogenic population. Furthermore, a pharmacoeconomic evaluation was performed and costs involved were calculated based on percentage effectiveness obtained for the timeframes of one month and of one year. The best cost-effectiveness ratio (CER) was observed with oxybutynin IR for the urodynamic parameters. In terms of clinical parameters, oxybutynin IR and ER showed the best CER. Based on the key urological parameters analyzed, oxybutynin IR was considered the most cost-effective antimuscarinic agent.

Abstract
Most drugs used in the treatment of urinary incontinence and voiding dysfunction in women modulate neuromuscular transmission in the urethra and bladder. Pharmacotherapy is the mainstay of treatment for overactive bladder. Although several different antimuscarinic medications are available for the treatment of overactive bladder, most have similar efficacy and tolerability. Pharmacotherapy has a limited role in the management of stress incontinence and voiding dysfunction in women. Newer drugs that target different mechanisms of action are being developed for the treatment of urinary incontinence and voiding dysfunction in women.

Abstract
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common condition which negatively impacts the quality of life of afflicted patients. This can result in alterations in social interactions at home, in the workplace and in the community, often leading to depression and poor self esteem as well as loss of productivity. Traditional mainstays of treatment include both behavioral therapy and pharmacotherapy. Oxybutynin immediate release (IR) represents the first such medication approved by the FDA specifically for treatment of OAB in 1975. Nevertheless, bothersome side effects in addition to thrice daily dosing often led to treatment cessation which raised the question that patients may actually prefer to live with their OAB symptoms rather than incur side effects or complex dosing schemes. Pharmacological advances ultimately led to development of a long-acting formulation of oxybutynin in the form of oxybutynin extended release (ER) with the hope that this drug would maintain efficacy while decreasing bothersome side effects and improve compliance with the convenience of once daily dosing regimen. This paper will review the major clinical studies involving oxybutynin ER as well as its role in different patient populations and potential concerns with its use.
