Disruption of circadian rhythm as a potential pathogenesis of nocturia.

Nat Rev Urol

November 2024

Department of Biomedical Engineering, Lerner Research Institute and Glickman Urological and Kidney Institute, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH, USA.

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. The day-night switch of the micturition pattern is controlled by circadian clocks located both in the central nervous system and in the peripheral organs.
