Nocturnal polyuria

Nobiletin and tangeretin (NoT) are flavonoids derived from the peel of Citrus depressa , and they have been found to modulate circadian rhythms. Because nocturia can be considered a circadian rhythm disorder, we investigated the efficacy of NoT for treating nocturia. A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover study was conducted. The trial was registered with the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCTs051180071). Nocturia patients aged ≥50 years who presented nocturia more than 2 times on a frequency-volume chart were recruited...

BACKGROUND: Nocturia is a common complaint that can have a significant impact on quality of life. The pathophysiology is usually multifactorial and can be due to poor sleep, nocturnal polyuria, or low bladder capacity alone or in combination. OBJECTIVE: Nocturnal polyuria (NP) is the most common cause of nocturia in older adults. We hereby review the role of nocturnal polyuria in nocturia. PATIENTS AND METHODS: To manage nocturia, a multipronged approach personalized to the patient's multifactorial etiology is warranted, with a focus on lifestyle modifications and behavioral approaches as first-line therapies...

BACKGROUND: To investigate the quality of life (QOL) of patients with nocturia after kidney transplantation (KT) and the association between nocturnal polyuria and sleep quality. METHODS: In a cross-sectional study, a patient who consented was evaluated using the following items: international prostate symptom QOL score, nocturia-quality of life score, overactive bladder symptom score, Pittsburgh sleep quality index, bladder diary, uroflowmetry, and bioimpedance analysis...

OBJECTIVE: There is no consistent opinion on the optimal initial dose of desmopressin for patients with nocturnal polyuria. Over a period of 12 weeks, we investigated the safety and efficacy of an initial dose of 50 μg of desmopressin for elderly men. METHODS: Eighty patients (mean age: 78.8 years) were started on an initial dose of 50 μg of desmopressin for nocturia associated with nocturnal polyuria. Safety and efficacy were evaluated after 1, 4, and 12 weeks using a frequency-volume chart, Athens Insomnia Scale, Patient Global Impression of Improvement scale, physical examination, blood tests, and a body composition analyzer...

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Data from a large US population-based, cross-sectional, epidemiological study (the EpiNP Study) were used to assess the symptoms and bother experienced by women with nocturnal polyuria (NP). METHODS: Consenting participants recruited from an online panel completed the baseline EpiNP survey online (Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Tool and urological comorbidities). All reporting ≥2 voids/night and a random sample of 100 respondents, each reporting 0 or 1 void/night were asked to complete a 3-day web-based bladder diary recording time, volume, and urgency rating of each void...

UNLABELLED: Combination therapy (CT) (desmopressin plus oxybutynin) has been considered for the treatment of monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE). We designed our study with the aim to evaluate the response rate to CT compared with desmopressin alone (primary outcome) and to identify factors associated with the response to CT (secondary outcome). We prospectively enrolled children with MNE with absent/partial response after 3 months of evening treatment with 240 mcg of desmopressin...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this review is to clarify the prevalence, pathophysiology and clinical presentation of enuresis and overactive bladder in sickle cell patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This narrative review of the literature was conducted in March 2022 by running a search in PubMed, Embase, Scopus and Cochrane databases without publication date limitation, using the following keywords: enuresis or nocturia or overactive bladder or urinary incontinence or bedwetting and sickle cell...

OBJECTIVES: To explore the impact of nocturnal polyuria (NP) on health-related quality of life (HRQoL), work productivity, mental health, fatigue, bother, and daytime sleepiness. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This large-scale, US population-representative epidemiologic study was conducted in two parts: a web-based survey and 3-day bladder diary. Consenting participants completed the baseline Epidemiology of NP (EpiNP) survey online (Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms [LUTS] Tool, comorbidities, burden, and multiple HRQoL measures)...

INTRODUCTION: Nocturia arises from a fundamental mismatch between nocturnal urine production, storage capacity, and sleep architecture, which may be driven by abnormalities of the genitourinary tract, but also by sleep disorders, medical diseases, patient actions/lifestyle factors, or medications. This article introduces a novel system for organizing the complex differential diagnosis for nocturia, as proposed by an international collective of practicing urologists, physician specialists, and sleep experts: "Sleep CALM"-Sleep Disorders, Comorbidities, Actions, Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction, and Medications...

BACKGROUND/AIM: Nocturia is defined as the symptom that an individual has to disrupt their sleep at night, for one or several times, in order to void. Nocturia is a bothersome event that markedly reduces a patient's quality of life. The aim of the study was to elucidate which drugs, prescribed to reduce nocturia, show real-world efficacy in patients with bladder storage symptoms. PATIENTS AND METHODS: One hundred consecutive patients who visited the Fukuoka University Medical Center were evaluated between May and July 2022...

OBJECTIVES: To clarify Japanese real-world clinical data on the use of desmopressin 25 and 50 μg orally disintegrating tablets (ODT) for male patients with nocturia and evaluate the predictive factors to improve nighttime frequency. METHODS: We retrospectively accumulated real-world clinical data from 27 institutions in Japan. Male patients with two or more episodes of nocturia who received desmopressin ODT for nocturnal polyuria (NP) from 2019 through 2021 were included...

INTRODUCTION: Patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) can be subcategorized into polyuria, normal or oliguria groups. Polyuria may be caused by pathologies including diabetes mellitus (DM), chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes insipidus (DI), or primary polydipsia (PPD). While fluid restriction is appropriate for some, doing so in all may result in serious complications. This study investigates the prevalence of these pathologies in LUTS patients with polyuria. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two databases were retrospectively queried for men and women who filled out a lower urinary tract symptom score (LUTSS) questionnaire, 24-h bladder diary (24HBD) and were polyuric (>2...

PURPOSE: To evaluate the pathophysiology of nocturia based on the frequency volume chart, and determine the risk factors for nocturia occurring ≥2 times per night. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this retrospective study, we reviewed 311 patients with complaints of nocturia from January 2017 to February 2019 at our institution. Nocturnal polyuria (NP) and global polyuria (GP) were defined as NP index >0.35 regardless of age and 24 h urine volume >2.5 L/day, respectively...

Drug-induced hyponatremia caused by renal water retention is mainly due to syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIAD). SIAD can be grouped into syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) and nephrogenic syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (NSIAD). The former is characterized by uncontrolled hypersecretion of arginine vasopressin (AVP), and the latter is produced by intrarenal activation for water reabsorption and characterized by suppressed plasma AVP levels. Desmopressin is useful for the treatment of diabetes insipidus because of its selective binding to vasopressin V2 receptor (V2R), but it can induce hyponatremia when prescribed for nocturnal polyuria in older patients...

Objective: To evaluate the bladder function and sleep pattern in the children with primary mono-symptomatic nocturnal enuresis (PMNE) by the polysomnography (PSG) and ambulatory urodynamic monitoring (AUM). Methods: From October 2019 to October 2021, forty-three patients with PMNE were selected as PMNE group from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and further subdivided into the severe PMNE group (enuresis>4 times/week) and the non-severe PMNE group (enuresis times 4 times/week) according to the severity...

OBJECTIVES:  Behavioral treatment for nocturia includes wearing compression stockings. However, a reading of the cited literature for evidence shows that there is not enough research data to support this recommendation, and it is controversial. The present study aimed to investigate and supplement evidence on the effects of wearing compression stockings during the daytime in patients with nocturia. METHODS: This was a single-arm prospective study to investigate the effects of compression stockings on nocturia for four weeks...

To the Editor, Nocturia is a significantly underestimated medical problem that affects seriously patients' quality of life, work engagement, productivity, and overall life conditions per se. Nocturia is a common condition, proven to be the most bothersome for patients with Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). People with two or more events of micturition per night have a significant increase in mortality rate and an increased risk of fall-related fractures if they visit the toilet two or more times per night [...

Nocturnal enuresis is a common disorder among children that seriously affects physical and mental health and has become a social problem. Bibliometric analysis is a valid way to examine existing research results, current research hotspots and research frontiers. Current studies on nocturnal enuresis are numerous and complex, but a bibliometric analysis of the existing research on nocturnal enuresis has yet to be published. To better identify the research trends and frontiers in nocturnal enuresis, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive review and analysis...

Nocturia is the complaint that an individual has to wake up at night one or more times to urinate. It is a frequent condition among older adults and entails detrimental effects with regard to sleeping, sexual activity, comfort, depression, mental function and vitality. It is clinically important to distinguish it from global polyuria, defined as a urinary rate ≥ 125 ml/h (3000 ml/day), as well as from nocturnal polyuria, which is an abnormally large volume of urine during sleep associated with a decreased daytime urine production...
