Symptoms of sleep-disordered breathing in children with nocturnal enuresis.

Objectives: There is an association between sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and nocturia in adults, raising the question as to whether SDB could play a role in the aetiology of nocturnal enuresis (NE) in children. The aim of this study was to determine whether there is an association between these two conditions.

Methods: The study group comprised 40 patients, aged 5-15 years, with enuresis and the control group 40 children undergoing routine day-case surgery.
