  1. EMGi/hour = integrated EMG during the hour around the micturition episode.
  2. EMGi/minute = integrated EMG during the minute preceding (Pre-micturition) or following (Post-micturition) the micturition episode.
  3. Data are expressed as LSMean ± SEM.
  4. Data with different superscripts are significantly different (P < 0.05).
