Responses of functional brain networks to bladder control in healthy adults: a study using regional homogeneity combined with independent component analysis methods.

Significant changes within the three functional brain networks were demonstrated when the bladder was full, suggesting that SN provides bladder sensation and DMN may provide self-reference, self-reflection, and decision-making about whether to void after assessment of the external environment, while CEN may provide support related to episodic memory, which provides new insight into the processing of bladder control and could serve as a premise to further explore the pathologic process underlying bladder dysfunction.
