  • Title: The effect of caffeine on uretheral motility.
    Author: Wixted WM, Zimskind PD.
    Journal: Invest Urol; 1977 Sep; 15(2):137-9. PubMed ID: 903210.
    Abstract:
    An in vivo ureteral perfusion technique combined with a recently described methodology was used to study the effects of caffeine on ureteral motility patterns. Effects of the drug on the disused ureteric stump were also noted. The results showed a dose-related inhibition to complete cessation of peristalsis. Proposed mechanisms of caffeine effect on the ureter are discussed.
