Aim: This study examined the association between a childhood history of nocturnal enuresis and nocturia and urgency as an adult.
Methods: A questionnaire was completed by 3649 parents and grandparents of children with nocturnal enuresis. The age range of the respondents was 30-89, and 54% were female. The questionnaire included the respondent's age, underlying disease, the age at which nocturnal enuresis was resolved and any current nocturia and urgency.
Results: The responses enabled us to analyse the risk factors for nocturia and urgency for the total sample, the history of nocturnal eneurisis for 2555 adults aged from 30 to 79 years and the age when nocturnal enuresis resolved for 1300 adults aged from 30 to 49 years. Respondents were significantly more likely to have nocturia and urgency as adults if they had a history of nocturnal enuresis and were aged ≥12 years when their nocturnal enuresis resolved.
Conclusions: A childhood history of nocturnal enuresis, particularly nocturnal enuresis that resolved at ≥12 years old, was associated with an increased frequency of adult nocturia and urgency. The impact of previous nocturnal enuresis on adult nocturia and urgency presents a risk that is comparable to ageing and prostatic disease.

Background And Aims: Primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE) is a common pediatric condition characterized by involuntary nighttime bed wetting. Primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (PMNE) is associated with altered antidiuretic hormone (ADH) secretion and lacks lower urinary tract symptoms. This study aimed to compare serum ADH levels between children with PMNE and a comparison group to explore its potential role in the pathophysiology of PMNE.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy for the treatment of nocturnal enuresis (NE) in children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Methods: PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched from inception to December 2023. We included all studies of children with OSA and NE who underwent adenoidectomy and/or tonsillectomy.

The purpose of this study was to determine any changes in the rectus abdominis and diaphragm muscles, which are core muscles, in children and adolescents with nocturnal enuresis (NE) using the shear wave elastography (SWE). In this case-control study, the rectus abdominis and diaphragm muscles of 40 children and adolescents with NE and 40 healthy controls were evaluated. The rectus abdominis muscle was examined at the right supra- and subumbilical levels, and the diaphragm at the right 9th-10th intercostal space.
