Lots of million dollar words that probably say nothing since acupuncture has no proven efficacy.

Detrusor overactivity(???) is common after stroke, and is characterized by
frequent micturition and urinary incontinence. However, the optimal
treatment for post-stroke detrusor overactivity remains unclear.
According to a study reported in the Neural Regeneration Research
(Vol. 8, No. 18, 2013), patients with post-stroke detrusor overactivity
from the Department of Neurology, Fourth Hospital of Harbin Medical
University, China, received electroacupuncture at points Baliao
[including bilateral Shangliao (BL31), bilateral Ciliao (BL32),
bilateral Zhongliao (BL33), and bilateral Xialiao (BL34)] and Huiyang
(BL35). Electroacupuncture significantly improved cystometric capacity
and bladder compliance, decreased detrusor leak point pressure, which is
proposed as an effective treatment for post-stroke detrusor
overactivity.
