The pathophysiological nature of the monosymptomatic primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE) in children is still the unresolved problem. The most hypotheses of pathogenesis of nocturnal enuresis are limited within anatomical, biochemical and physiological regulation of the urinary control. Based on our own observations as well as the data reported in the literature, we have concluded that in addition...

The case of an 8 year old boy with both nocturnal enuresis and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is presented. Diagnosis of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus was based on a typical medical history, the characteristic result of a fluid restriction test, the lack of an effect of 1-desamino-8-D-arginine (DDAVP) on both urine osmolality and plasma coagulation factors and, finally, the detection of a hemi...

Background: co-occurrence of oral language disorders and enuresis in children. Aim: to identify and analyze the relationship between instances of oral language disorders and enuresis in children. Method: clinical, quantitative and qualitative study, with a descriptive/interpretative outline, presented through two distinct situations. "Situation 1" refers to a group of 120 children between 3:0 a...

Chronic diseases have been identified as predisposing factors in behavioral disorders and the prevalence of these disorders is known to be higher in patients than in control groups. Thalassemia too, plays an effective role in increasing the prevalence of behavioral disorders. In order to recognize the prevalence of behavioral disorders in thalassemic patients, a study was performed on 257 ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the correlation between constipation and lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) and nocturnal enuresis in a population-based study. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a cross-sectional study. The criteria for inclusion were children and adolescents of between 5 and 17 years and who agreed to sign the informed consent form. The study excluded students with neurological problems...

INTRODUCTION Nocturnal enuresis (NE) and obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea syndrome (OSAHS) are common problems during childhood, and population studies have reported a significant correlation between them. This study aimed to assess whether habitual snoring, mouth breathing and daytime sleepiness are associated with increased incidence of NE in children with OSAHS. MATERIAL AND METHODS Poly...

PURPOSE The use of desmopressin in patients with primary nocturnal enuresis is based on the hypothesis of a nocturnal lack of endogenous arginine vasopressin. However, in addition to the kidney, other targets of desmopressin are known. Therefore, we examined whether the administration of desmopressin influences central nervous function in children with primary nocturnal enuresis. MATERIALS AN...

INTRODUCTION Worldwide, around 10% of 6–7-yearolds suffer from enuresis. Enuresis is therefore highly prevalent, but its impact is often underestimated. Training for family doctors rarely includes specific guidance on enuresis, and the default approach is often to wait for spontaneous resolution. Despite comprehensive enuresis guidelines in specialist journals for secondary and tertiary care, v...

the purpose of this research was to evaluate the effect of palatal expansion in the treatment of nocturnal enuresis. enuresis still remains a problem experienced by children and the reason is unclear.finding a final solution is being sought by the medical profession.nocturnal enuresis may lead to numerous physical and emotional problems. currently available treatment options showed satisfactory...
