Abstract

Neurogenic bladder (NB) is a significant complication that often occurs after spinal cord injury. It results from urinary dysfunction caused by the injury, disrupting the normal neural control of the bladder and urethra. Symptoms of NB can include urinary frequency, urgency, incontinence, and retention, all of which can greatly impact the quality of life of affected individuals. While there are articles and reviews on NB, fewer specifically address NB following spinal cord injury. This study examined 1095 publications from January 1, 2000, to March 27, 2024, in the Web of Science core database using bibliometric software like VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and Bibliometrics. The analysis revealed an increasing trend in the number of publications, with the United States and China leading in research output. Professor Jeremy B. Myers from the University of Utah had the highest number of publications, while the University of Michigan and the University of Pittsburgh were the institutions with the most publications. The journal Neurourology and Urodynamics had the highest number of articles, and common keywords included management, quality of life, and dysfunction, highlighting key areas of focus for scholars.
