Overactive Bladder
Association Between Metabolic Syndrome and Serum Nerve Growth Factor Levels in Women With Overactive Bladder
Nerve growth factor (NGF-R) receptors are between the detrusor muscle fibers and can cause afferent signals. Metabolic syndrome and obesity have been advocated to be risk factors for the development of overactive bladder.
