Objective To evaluate the development, hot spots and trends of the fields of neurogenic bladder.Methods The relevant articles of neurogenic bladder from January, 2000 to June, 2021 in CNKI and Web of Science were retrieved.The countries, authors, institutions, cited reference and keywords were extracted with CiteSpace to draw knowledge mapping. Results and Conclusion A total of 5 064 articles were enrolled. At present, the research on the field of neurogenic bladder is in a stable period of development, and this field has been widely concerned by scholars at home and abroad. The cooperation between domestic authors and institutions is not close enough compared with foreign countries, and domestic cooperation is more between medical schools and their respective affiliated hospitals. In the future, China can further strengthen cross-regional and cross-agency cooperation. Low-frequency electrical stimulation and sacral nerve regulation are seem to be research hotspots, and children's neurogenic bladder and robot-assisted technologies are also needed more attention.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of bilateral sequential repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on the motor function of upper limbs in stroke patients. MethodsFrom December, 2020 to December, 2022, 62 stroke inpatients in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were included. They were randomly divided into control group (n = 31) and observation group (n = 31). Both groups accepted conventional medicine and rehabilitation, as well as electroacupuncture antagonistic muscle therapy. Before electroacupuncture, the observation group acceped low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation at primary motor cortex (M1) on the healthy side, followed by intermittent theta burst stimulation at M1 on the affected side, for four weeks. They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE), modified Barthel Index (MBI) and modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), and motor evoked potential (MEP) latency was compared before and after treatment. ResultsOne patient dropped down in the observation group, and no adverse event happened. After treatment, the scores of FMA-UE and MBI significantly increased (|t| > 9.953, P < 0.001), and the score of MAS and the latency of MEP significantly decreased (|t| > 5.043, P < 0.001) in both groups; while all of them were better in the observation group than in the control group (|t| > 2.237, P < 0.05). ConclusionBilateral sequential repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation can effectively promote the recovery of upper limb motor function in stroke patients.
