Childhood enuresis may be associated with overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) in adulthood, which may contribute to sleep disorders. The objective was to compare the prevalence of childhood enuresis and sleep quality among women with and without OAB.
Increasing evidence suggested the multifactorial nature of nocturia, but the true pathogenesis of this condition still remains to be elucidated. Contemporary clinical medications are mostly symptom based, aimed at either reducing nocturnal urine volume or targeting autonomic receptors within the bladder to facilitate urine storage.
This study retrospectively examines the effectiveness of low-frequency electrical stimulation for addressing nocturia in patients experiencing urinary incontinence after undergoing radical prostatectomy.
To estimate the prevalence of nocturia in middle-aged and elderly men and evaluate its associated factors and changes over time.
Data of middle-aged and older men aged ≥40 years from the 2007-2008 and 2017-2020 cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were retrospectively analyzed.
Nocturnal lower urinary tract symptoms (nLUTS) are common in geriatric rehabiliation inpatients but have not been well described. The aim of this study was to compare patient characteristics stratified by self-reported nocturia severity in geriatric rehabilitation inpatients.
Nocturia (waking from sleep at night to void) and chronic insomnia frequently co-exist in older adults, contributing synergistically to sleep disturbance. Treatments typically target either nocturia or insomnia rather than simultaneously addressing shared mechanisms for these disorders.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is associated with cardiovascular risk factors that comprise metabolic syndrome, including central obesity, hypertension, insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance, and dyslipidaemia.
Nocturia impairs the quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Although sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) such as tofogliflozin increase urine volume, their impact on nocturia, in conjunction with dietary salt restriction, is less clear.
The objective was to cross-culturally adapt and check for the reliability, internal consistency, and validity of the Nocturia Quality of Life Questionnaire (N-QoL) in Brazilian Portuguese (N-QoL-Br).
