Commentary on Twitter
Pts with neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction had sacral neuromodulators implanted and optimized. They were then randomized to have the device either remain ON or switched OFF for 2 months. The success rate was 76% in the ON group vs 42% in the OFF. https://t.co/dhteW70jXp pic.twitter.com/1c0w8HOMJm

Glad to see this work published. Contrary to predictions from small studies, #ketamine failed in the largest #PTSD clinical trial.
Future studies should test the lower dose and 3x/wk. @npp_journal @YalePsych @bcmhouston @netteaverillhttps://t.co/7NcFsNTMKw
