[PMID: 32914581 DOI: 10.1111/luts.12347] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2020] [Revised: 06/11/2020] [Accepted: 08/07/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the long-term efficacy, quality of life (QoL), and safety of desmopressin orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs) in Japanese patients with nocturia. METHODS A long-term, multicenter phase 3 study was conducted that enrolled Japanese male and female patients with nocturia (NCT03051009). Male patients received desmopressin 25- or 50-μg ODTs, and female patients received desmopressin 25-μg ODTs for up to 1 year. The primary endpoint was safety. Secondary endpoints included change from baseline in number of nocturnal voids, time to first awakening to void, and QoL assessments (nocturia-specific zQoL [N-QoL], Insomnia Severity Index [ISI], and Hsu bother score). RESULTS Overall, 503 patients were enrolled. Reductions from baseline in mean number of nocturnal voids were observed in all treatment groups from week 1 (-0.62 to -1.00), with improvements continuing through week 52 (-1.39 to -1.71). Changes from baseline above or approximating a clinically meaningful improvement were seen by week 52 in the disease-specific N-QoL total score (improved by 11.5-22.6), ISI (improved by -3.9 to -7.1), and Hsu bother scores (improved by -1.5 to -2.0). Adverse events (AEs) were reported in 54.9% of desmopressin-treated patients. Most AEs were mild or moderate in severity. CONCLUSIONS Desmopressin ODTs (25 and 50 μg) demonstrated long-term efficacy, improved QoL, and were well tolerated in Japanese male and female patients with nocturia treated for up to 1 year. Clinically meaningful improvements in patients' QoL, assessed by N-QoL, sleep quality, and bother, occur later than objective symptom improvements, such as voids.

Abstract
Aims: Nocturia (getting up at night to urinate, where each urination being followed by sleep or intention to sleep) is a bothersome symptom with potentially negative consequences for individual health and daytime functioning. This study assessed the burden of nocturia in the workplace by investigating associations between nocturia and subjective well-being (SWB), work engagement and productivity.Methods: Using large-scale international workplace survey data, the associations between nocturia, SWB, work engagement (Utrecht Work Engagement Scale, UWES-9) and productivity (Work Productivity and Activity Impairment, WPAI) were assessed. Bivariate and multivariate regression analysis was used with adjustment for a large set of confounding factors, including sleep duration and sleep quality.Results: Across a study sample of 92,129 observations, aged 18-70, an average of 10% of the survey population reported ≥2 nocturnal voids (generally considered clinically significant nocturia), with prevalence of nocturia increasing with age. Individuals with nocturia reported a 35.7% (p < .001) higher relative sleep disturbance score and were 10.5 percentage points (pp) (p < .001) more likely to report short sleep. Adjusted for covariates, nocturia was associated with a 3.5% (p < .001) lower relative SWB score and a 2% (p < .001) lower relative UWES-9 work engagement score. Nocturia was associated with a 3.9 pp (p < .001) higher work impairment due to absenteeism and presenteeism (WPAI). Adjusting additionally for sleep disturbance and sleep duration reduced the magnitude of the estimated effects, suggesting a key role for poor sleep in explaining the relationship between nocturia and the outcomes (SWB, UWES-9, WPAI) assessed.Conclusions: A key contribution of this study is the assessment of the association between nocturia and a range of work performance outcomes in a sizeable study using validated instruments to measure work engagement and productivity. The study highlights the importance of taking sleep into account when assessing the relationship between nocturia and associated outcomes.

The impact of sacrospinous ligament fixation on pre-existing nocturia and co-existing pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms. Int Urogynecol J 2020; 32:919-928.

Abstract
Introduction and hypothesis To evaluate whether nocturia and coexisting pelvic floor symptoms in women with pelvic organ prolapse (POP) can be improved by ligamentous fixation of apical vaginal prolapse to the sacrospinous ligament. Methods We evaluated the PROPEL study data from 281 women with pelvic organ prolapse stage > 2. Bothersome nocturia and coexisting pelvic floor symptoms were assessed with the Pelvic Floor Disorder Inventory (PFDI) questionnaire preoperatively and at 6, 12 and 24 months after successful vaginal prolapse repair. Women with successful reconstruction (POP-Q stage < 1 at all compartments throughout the 2-year follow-up), defined as anatomical “responders,” were compared to the anatomical “non-responders.” Results Among the patients completing all PFDI questions (N = 277), anatomical responders and non-responders were the groups of interest for our analysis. We found the occurrence rates of “moderate” or “quite a bit” of nocturia was significantly reduced after surgery in all subgroups (48.7% at baseline vs. 19.5% after 24 months). The occurrence of nocturia was halved for responders compared to non-responders (45.4% and 48.3% at baseline vs. 14% and 29.5% after 24 months). Anatomical non-responders still had a relevant improvement of POP-Q stages, especially in the apical compartment. Prevalence rates of co-existing over- and underactive bladder, fecal incontinence, defecation disorders and pain symptoms were also significantly reduced postoperatively. Conclusion Nocturia can be associated with symptomatic POP, with improvements seen following vaginal ligamentous prolapse repair. We caution providers, however, when advising patients of the possible resolution of nocturia following POP reconstruction, that all other traditional etiologies of nocturia must first be ruled out.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To better understand the relation between sleep problems and CKD, we examined temporal trends in the prevalence of self-reported sleep problems in adults in the United States and their associations with CKD and all-cause mortality. METHODS Using data from 27,365 adult participants in five biannual National Health and Examination Surveys (2005-2006 through 2013-2014), we studied five self-reported sleep problems-trouble sleeping, sleep disorder, nocturia (urinating ≥2 times/night), inadequate sleep (<7 hours/night), and excessive sleep (>9 hours/night)-plus a composite index. We conducted three types of analysis: temporal trends in the prevalence of each sleep measure by CKD status, using model-based standardization; cross-sectional analysis of associations between four CKD measures and each sleep measure, using logistic regression; and survival analysis of the association between each sleep measure and mortality, using Cox regression. RESULTS The prevalence of trouble sleeping and sleep disorder increased over the five surveys by 4% and 3%, respectively, whereas the other sleep problems remained relatively stable. All sleep problems, except inadequate sleep, were more common during the study period among adults with CKD than without CKD (40% versus 21% for nocturia; 5% versus 2% for excessive sleep; 30% versus 25% for trouble sleeping; 12% versus 8% for sleep disorder). Both eGFR <30 ml/min per 1.73 m2 and albuminuria were positively associated with nocturia and excessive sleep. Excessive sleep and nocturia were also associated with higher mortality (adjusted hazard ratio for >9 versus 7-9 hours/night=1.7; 95% CI, 1.3 to 2.1; and for nocturia=1.2; 95% CI, 1.1 to 1.4). CONCLUSIONS The high prevalence of sleep problems among persons with CKD and their associations with mortality suggest their potential importance to clinical practice. Future work could examine the health effects of identifying and treating sleep problems in patients with CKD.

Abstract
AIMS Nocturnal polyuria (NP) is caused by a wide array of factors, including genitourinary and systemic comorbidities, modifiable behavior, and pharmaceuticals. When an identifying factor is absent, NP may be purely a symptom of the nocturnal polyuria syndrome (NPS) and secondary to blunting of normal arginine vasopressin action within the circadian rhythm. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of NPS in male patients attending a Veterans Affairs outpatient urology clinic. METHODS Retrospective database analysis was performed of voiding diaries from men who had established care for lower urinary tract symptoms from 2007 to 2018. Patients were excluded if they reported fewer than two nocturnal voids on voiding diary analysis or had comorbidity associated with NP. Distinct cutoffs were separately employed to identify NP: nocturnal polyuria index (NPi; calculated as nocturnal urine volume divided by 24-hour urine volume) greater than 0.33; and nocturnal urine production (NUP) greater than 90 mL/h. RESULTS A total of 283 completed voiding diaries were evaluated and 202 patients had ≥2 nocturnal voids. After exclusions, at NPi greater than 33, the floor and ceiling NPS prevalence values were 21% and 41%, respectively. At NUP greater than 90 mL/h, the floor and ceiling NPS prevalence values were 17% and 32%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of NPS in patients with nocturia in the present study lies between 17% and 41%. NPS constitutes a clinically relevant subgroup of nocturia among male patients in the Veterans Affairs outpatient urology setting.

Factors Associated With Nocturia-Related Quality of Life in Men With Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms and Treated With Tamsulosin Oral Controlled Absorption System in a Non-Interventional Study. Front Pharmacol 2020; 11:816.

Abstract
Nocturia impairs quality of life (QoL). We have performed a non-interventional study in which men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) were treated for at least 3 months with tamsulosin oral controlled absorption system (0.4 mg q.d.). Other than observing efficacy and tolerability of this drug formulation, the study was designed to explore the relative roles of number of nocturia episodes and of non-urological causes of nocturia on nocturia-related QoL at baseline and treatment-associated changes thereof. The study enrolled 5775 men seeking treatment of their LUTS. Tamsulosin improved LUTS, e.g. International Prostate Symptom Score from 19.5 ± 5.9 to 10.1 ± 4.9 (means ± SD). This was associated by clinically meaningful improvements in the Nocturia QoL score (from 45 ± 19 to 73 ± 17 points) and other QoL scores. Number of nocturnal voids was the key driver of all QoL scores at baseline; change of number of nocturia episodes that of improvement of all QoL scores upon treatment. In contrast, non-urological causes of nocturia such as heart failure, diabetes, sleep apnea, fluid or alcohol intake or use of diuretics or hypnotics had only small if any effects on baseline QoL or treatment-associated improvements thereof. The observed effects of non-urological causes on QoL apparently were largely driven by their effect on number of nocturnal voids. These data further support the idea that improvement of nocturia may be an important treatment goal in male LUTS.

Overlap between nocturnal polyuria, diurnal polyuria, and 24-h polyuria among men with nocturia. Int Urol Nephrol 2020; 52:1845-1849. [PMID: 32435976 DOI: 10.1007/s11255-020-02502-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2020] [Accepted: 05/09/2020] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE A recent update in International Continence Society (ICS) terminology now recognizes nocturnal polyuria (NP) and diurnal polyuria (DP) as related subcategories of "Polyuria (global symptom)". This study determines the real-world clinical overlap between NP, DP, and 24-h polyuria (24hP) among men with nocturia. METHODS Analysis of frequency-volume charts from men ≥ 18 years with ≥ 1 nocturnal void(s). Three separate analyses were performed using different rate criteria for NP, DP, and 24hP: (1) urine production > 90 mL/h (extrapolated from a proposed definition for NP); (2) > 125 mL/h (extrapolated from a proposed definition for 24hP [3000 mL/24 h]); and (3) > 1.67 mL/kg/h (extrapolated from the current ICS definition for 24hP [> 40 mL/kg/24 h]). Subjects were categorized as having one of five mathematically permissible phenotypic combinations: (1) isolated NP, (2) isolated DP, (3) NP + 24hP, (4) DP + 24hP, and (5) NP + DP + 24hP. RESULTS 167, 95, and 61 patients were included at criteria 1, 2, and 3, respectively, with 56%, 43%, and 30% of patients demonstrating overlapping phenotypes (i.e., phenotypic combinations 3-5) at cut-offs 1-3, respectively. The prevalence of NP was similar across cut-offs (81-87%), but the prevalence of NP without 24hP was highly threshold-dependent (43-73%). CONCLUSION Consistent with current ICS terminology, there exists a substantial overlap between NP, DP, and 24hP. As demonstrated in the current study, absolute volume-based criteria for NP/DP/24hP are indeed conducive to the diagnosis of concurrent NP + 24hP, and may be preferred over proportion-based NP criteria when both NP + 24hP are suspected.

Abstract
BACKGROUND this study compares diuresis rate, sodium clearance and free water clearance (FWC) by age and time of day (nighttime vs. daytime) in subjects with and without nocturnal polyuria (NP) to determine whether these variables affect the phenotype of NP. METHODS post hoc analysis of two prospective observational studies. Eight urine samples collected at 3-h intervals and a single blood sample were used to calculate daytime (10a/1p/4p/7p/10p) and nighttime (1a/4a/7a) diuresis rates, sodium clearance and FWC. Three mixed linear models were constructed for diuresis rate, sodium clearance and FWC using four predictor variables: NP status (present [nocturnal urine production >90 ml/h] vs. absent [≤90 ml/h]), time of day, age and study identification. RESULTS subjects with NP experienced higher nighttime versus daytime diuresis rates, sodium clearance and FWC. Regardless of NP status, increased age was accompanied by an increase in the ratio of nighttime/daytime diuresis rate, nighttime sodium clearance and daytime sodium clearance. FWC showed a complex age effect, which was independent of time of day or NP status. CONCLUSIONS age-related increases in nighttime/daytime diuresis rate, 24-h sodium clearance and 24-h FWC are not specific to subjects with NP. The age-related surge in either nocturnal sodium clearance or nocturnal FWC may represent the relevant substrate for behavioural or pharmacologic interventions targeting sodium diuresis or free water diuresis, respectively. Increases in FWC in older age groups may reflect impaired circadian rhythmicity of endogenous AVP or changes in responsiveness of the aged nephron to water clearance.

Abstract
This study aims to determine whether dietary sodium restriction counseling decreases nocturnal voiding frequency in cardiology patients with concomitant nocturia. Patients who had established care at a cardiology clinic from 2015 to 2018 reporting ≥1 average nocturnal void(s) underwent a comprehensive sodium intake interview by their cardiologist, who provided them with individualized strategies for dietary sodium reduction and assessed adherence at follow-up. Average nocturnal voiding frequency and dietary adherence were documented in the medical record. A nocturia database was compiled for retrospective analysis. A total of 74 patients were included. Patients considered to be adherent with dietary sodium restriction at follow-up (n = 56) demonstrated a decrease in median nocturia frequency (2.5 [2.3-3.0] vs 1.0 [1.0-2.0] voids, P < .001). Among nonadherent patients (n = 18), median nocturia frequency did not significantly change from baseline to follow-up (2.0 [1.5-3.8] vs 2.0 [1.5-4.8] voids, P = .423). Median changes were significantly different between the adherent and nonadherent groups (P < .001). Examination of second follow-up available from 37 patients showed a continued effect. In conclusion, adherence with dietary sodium counseling appears to improve nocturia. Accordingly, dietary modification may represent an important adjunct therapy to lifestyle and pharmacologic interventions for decreasing nocturia frequency. Reduction in nocturnal voiding frequency may also reflect an additional benefit of dietary sodium restriction in accordance with best practice standards for cardiovascular disease.

METHODS Patients presenting with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) completed 3-day bladder diaries. Nocturia was quantified based on the mean number of nighttime voids documented over the 3 days. Nocturia subtypes (global polyuria, nocturnal polyuria [NP], reduced global bladder capacity, and reduced nocturnal bladder capacity) were assessed. Bother due to nocturia was measured by the LUTS Tool. Sleep quality was assessed with the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Sleep Scale. Multivariable multinomial regression was used to explore patient characteristics associated with nocturia. RESULTS In 502 participants with analyzable diaries (285 men and 217 women), the mean number of nocturia episodes over 3 days was 0 in 103 (20.5%), >0 to <1 in 151 (20.1%), 1 to <2 in 165 (32.9%), and ≥2 in 83 (16.5%). Sixty-seven percent of the participants with nocturia ≥1 reported significant bother from their nocturia. NP was the most common nocturia subtype and was present in 17% of those with nocturia = 0, 40% of those with nocturia >0 to <1, 65% of those with nocturia 1 to <2%, and 77% with nocturia 2+. Higher degrees of nocturia were associated with male sex, greater sleep disturbance, and a higher likelihood of exhibiting multiple nocturia subtypes. CONCLUSIONS Nocturia ≥1 occurred in 49% of LUTS patients and caused significant bother in the majority of them. The most common subtype was NP, but a substantial proportion of patients exhibited additional characteristics.

Abstract
Aim: This narrative review investigates the effect of dietary intake on nocturnal voiding severity. The primary aims of this review are to provide a framework for future research and ultimately contribute to more comprehensive, lifestyle-centered guidelines for the management of nocturia. Methods: A literature search was conducted in Web of Science, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases using the keywords “nocturia”, “diuresis”, “natriuresis”, “food”, “diet”, and “nutrients”. Results: High fruit and vegetable consumption was negatively associated with nocturia. High intake of tea and dietary sodium showed a positive association with nocturia. Several foods have also been directly linked to changes in diuresis rate, glycemic control, and endogenous serum melatonin concentration, offering potential mechanisms for this observed effect. Overall quality of the evidence was low. Conclusion: At present, there is limited evidence to suggest that certain foods, electrolytes, and specific compounds may contribute to the pathogenesis of nocturia. A greater understanding of the impact of food and nutrients on body fluid metabolism is needed to further refine the evaluation and treatment of nocturia.

What Is the Most Effective Treatment for Nocturia or Nocturnal Incontinence in Adult Women? Eur Urol Focus 2020; 7:453-463.

Abstract
CONTEXT Nocturia is a prevalent symptom with varied aetiology and no consensus on treatment options. OBJECTIVE We systematically reviewed evidence comparing the benefits and harms of various treatment options for nocturia or nocturnal incontinence in women. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Literature search was performed using Embase, Medline, and Cochrane databases (from 1 January 1946 to 26 September 2017), following the methods detailed in the Cochrane Handbook. The protocol was registered with PROSPERO. Certainty of evidence was assessed with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS The literature search identified 3573 citations, of which 11 full-text articles were included. Three studies on desmopressin and four on antimuscarinics provided evidence of improving nocturia symptoms. Four studies on behavioural treatment provided limited evidence and controversial results. One study on oestrogen did not prove the benefit of any mode of administration, and one small study on functional magnetic stimulation provided some evidence of effectiveness in nocturia. One randomised controlled trial (RCT; 141 participants) reported a statistically significant difference between the desmopressin and placebo groups (desmopressin patients experienced 0.75 [95% confidence interval {CI} 0.47-1.03] nocturia episodes less than those experience by the placebo group; certainty of evidence = low). The only RCT on antimuscarinics in women with nocturia reported that oxybutynin reduced the number of nocturia episodes by 0.3 (95% CI -0.02 to 0.62) versus placebo. In one RCT comparing tolterodine with the combination of tolterodine with behavioural therapy, there was significant change from baseline nocturnal incontinence episodes in both groups. CONCLUSIONS There is some evidence that desmopressin and antimuscarinics are effective treatment options for nocturia; however, there is very limited evidence for other treatment options. The findings should be interpreted with caution as there were some methodological flaws in the included studies, particularly outcome heterogeneity. PATIENT SUMMARY This review identified several medical treatments for nocturia in women, such as desmopressin and antimuscarinics, which appear to improve the severity of the condition.

Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of mirabegron 25 mg daily in patients with nocturia-predominant hypersensitive bladder (HSB). Materials and Methods: This study prospectively investigated 219 consecutive patients with nocturia-predominant HSB and treated with mirabegron 25 mg daily from July 2015 to 2016. Patient with nocturia episode decreased by ≥1/night after treatment was considered successful. The subjective symptom score, such as International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Quality of life index, Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS), Urgency Severity Scale, patient perception of bladder condition (PPBC), and nocturia episodes per night, was assessed before and 1 month after mirabegron treatment and between successful and failed groups. Results: A total of 219 patients, including 51 women and 168 men, were enrolled. The mean age of the population was 72.3 ± 11.0 years. Totally, 58 (26.5%) of the patients had improvement in nocturia at 1 month after treatment. Among them, 14 (27.5%) women and 44 (26.2%) men had improvement in nocturia episodes after treatment (P = 0.858). Compared the clinical data between successful and failed group, the baseline symptom scores were more severe in successful group, including IPSS-storage subscore (4.84 ± 2.09 vs. 4.11 ± 2.19, P = 0.031), OABSS (3.21 ± 0.67 vs. 2.91 ± 1.00, P = 0.037), and nocturia episodes (3.81 ± 0.95 vs. 3.095 ± 1.32, P = 0.000). Multivariate analysis revealed only a higher nocturia episodes (P = 0.046) predict a successful treatment result. Mirabegron 25 mg daily significantly improved PPBC score along the 3 months' follow-up (P < 0.05), and postvoid residual volume did not increase after mirabegron treatment in overall patients. Conclusions: Mirabegron 25 mg daily treatment showed a limited therapeutic effect on nocturia-predominant HSB patients. The patients with higher OAB symptoms predict a successful result.

Abstract
AIMS Male lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are common and bothersome symptoms in the aging population, of which the etiology is multifactorial. Prostatic surgery may be considered to alleviate some of these LUTS, especially in patients in which benign prostatic obstruction is believed to be the underlying cause. The aim of this paper is to discuss underlying pathophysiology, signs, and conditions that may lead to success or failure after prostatic surgery in male patients with LUTS. METHODS The paper is a report of presentations and subsequent discussions at the annual International Consultation on Incontinence Research Society, in June 2018 in Bristol. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Unfavorable outcomes after prostatic surgery are reported in 25% to 30% of the patients. This may be due to persistent or de novo symptoms, related to the multifactorial origin of symptoms. Specific underlying conditions such as with detrusor overactivity, detrusor underactivity, and nocturnal polyuria are discussed in their relationship with prostatic surgery. Knowledge gaps are addressed and specific research questions proposed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nocturia, characterized as waking during the main sleep period to urinate, is a common condition. Persistent nocturia results in sleep fragmentation with deleterious effects on health and well-being. Yet, there are limited data on the economic burden of nocturia in the United States. OBJECTIVE To assess the association of nocturia with health care resource utilization (HRU), work productivity, and self-rated health while estimating the societal costs of nocturia in the United States in 2017. METHODS A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES; 2005-2006 to 2013-2014). Adults aged ≥ 18 years (excluding pregnant women) were stratified into individuals with nocturia (≥ 2 voids/night) and individuals without nocturia (< 2 voids/night), based on the threshold for clinically significant nocturia. Outcomes were self-reported and included HRU (hospitalizations, outpatient visits); work productivity (weekly hours worked, employment); and current health status. Multivariable regression analyses adjusting for age, race, sex, body mass index, insurance status, education level, alcohol use, smoking status, and self-reported comorbid conditions were used to compare the 2 cohorts, overall and stratified by age group (20-44 years, 45-64 years, and 65+ years) to distinguish the effects on different age groups including the Medicare-aged population. Excess direct health care costs and indirect productivity costs associated with nocturia in the United States were then calculated using a prevalence-based approach and available literature (i.e., nocturia prevalence estimates, aggregated unit costs by HRU type, and average hourly earnings in the United States). RESULTS 22,300 individuals were identified, and 24% had nocturia (≥ 2 voids/night). Median age was 55.2 and 43.2 years among individuals with and without nocturia, respectively, and the proportion of males was 43.3% and 51.3%, respectively. Individuals with nocturia had significantly more HRU, including hospitalizations and outpatient visits, worked significantly fewer hours weekly, and were significantly less likely to be employed when compared with those without nocturia. They were also significantly less likely to report being in very good/excellent health. These comparisons remained statistically significant across age groups. Total excess direct health care costs were $62.9 billion (hospitalization: $47.6 billion; outpatient: $15.3 billion). Total excess indirect productivity costs were $151.7 billion. Altogether, costs were estimated at $214.5 billion, equivalent to $3,491 per individual with nocturia. Individuals aged 20-44 years incurred 23.5% of total excess costs, while those aged 45-64 and 65+ years incurred 48.2% and 28.3%, respectively. Sensitivity analyses based on lower prevalence estimates resulted in costs of $94.0 billion, while those based on higher prevalence estimates reached up to $231.1 billion. CONCLUSIONS Nocturia is associated with a substantial economic burden in the United States even when evaluated based on lower prevalence estimates. This study underscores the importance of timely diagnosis and management of nocturia patients to alleviate health-related and economic consequences to patients and society.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate if compliance with frequency volume charts can be improved if a physician explains its importance and to identify factors affecting compliance and accurate responses to frequency volume chart (FVC). METHODS We identified patients ≥18 years of age with voiding dysfunction reported from July 2013 to February 2014. Patients were explained the importance of frequency volume charts by a doctor and then a nurse explained how to fill it (group A). Others were only explained how to fill it (group B). RESULTS A total of 137 patients were enrolled. The response rate to frequency volume charts was higher in group A than in group B (94.3% vs 82.9%, P = .038). Patients ≥70 years of age, without a private health insurance, with high school education or higher, and without past medical history had a higher response rate in group A than in group B. In the multivariate binary logistic regression analysis, group A (odds ratio [OR], 4.87; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.04-22.89; P = .045) and QoL (OR, 2.28; 95% CI, 1.16-4.46; P = .017) were factors associated with the response rate. In addition, group A (OR, 3.46; 95% CI, 1.03-11.70; P = .045) and being 60's years old (vs 50's years, OR, 7.01; 95% CI, 1.36-36.23; P = .020) were related to FVC complete response rate. CONCLUSIONS Frequency volume chart compliance can be improved if physicians explain its importance for lower urinary tract symptoms diagnosis and management. The explanation and severe lower urinary tract symptoms are factors affecting compliance and the explanation and being 60's years old are related to accurate response.

Abstract
AIMS To summarize basic definitions in the International Continence Society (ICS) Standardization of Terminology in lower urinary tract (LUT) function and their application. METHODS Fundamental terminology in the ICS Standardization of Terminology LUT Function was identified and summarized. RESULTS Evaluation of LUT requires appreciation of symptoms, signs and urodynamic observations. Symptoms are categorized according to their occurrence during the micturition cycle into storage symptoms (eg, increased daytime frequency [IDF], urgency, nocturia, or incontinence) or voiding and post-voiding symptoms (eg, slow stream or post micturition dribbling). Several problems may be present, giving rise to symptom syndromes, notably overactive bladder (during the storage phase) or underactive bladder (during the voiding phase). Signs may be derived from a bladder diary or may be elicited on physical examination. Urodynamic observations may be made by assessing flow rate, and this is combined with pressure measurement when undertaking filling cystometry and pressure flow studies. Key elements of flow and pressure measurement are described. CONCLUSIONS The review provides a succinct summary of symptoms, signs, and urodynamic observations as set out in the ICS Standard on LUT Function.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Nocturia is defined as awakening due to the desire to void during a period of intended sleep. The pathophysiology of nocturia is multifactorial and management remains a challenge. Herein, we provide an overview of the management strategies for nocturia and summarize the existing evidence for treatment of nocturia across the condition's broad etiologic categories: nocturnal polyuria, diminished bladder capacity, and global polyuria. RECENT FINDINGS Treatment should begin with behavioral modification. A high level of evidence supports the efficacy of desmopressin in the treatment of nocturnal polyuria. Data supporting the efficacy of α-blockers, antimuscarinics, and surgical bladder outlet procedures in the treatment of nocturia remains limited. Treatment options for nocturia are determined by underlying mechanism. Desmopressin is effective in treating nocturnal polyuria. Surgical intervention, α-blockers, and antimuscarinics may improve nocturia when associated with lower urinary tract symptoms or overactive bladder in the setting of diminished bladder capacity.

Abstract
AIMS Nocturnal polyuria (NP) and global polyuria (GP) are not mutually exclusive. However, by rate, the common criteria for GP (40 mL/kg/24 hours [117 mL/kg/hour in a 70-kg individual] or 3000 mL/24 hours [125 mL/h]) are more stringent than those for NP (90 mL/hour during the sleep period or NP index [NPi; nocturnal volume/24-hour volume] > 0.33 [no minimum rate]). It remains unclear whether total nocturnal urine volume (NUV) may reliably delineate between NP patients with and without comorbid GP. METHODS A clinical database of men with lower urinary tract symptoms was searched for voiding diaries completed by patients reporting greater than or equal to 1 nocturnal void(s). Four separate analyses were performed using all combinations of the two NP and two GP criteria listed above. For each analysis, patients were included if they met the criteria for NP, and then stratified by presence or absence of GP (ie, NP + GP vs isolated NP). RESULTS Median NUV was greater among patients with NP + GP for all criteria combinations. Sensitivities greater than or equal to 80%/90%/100% for NP + GP were observed at 1275/1230/1085 mL for {NPi > 0.33 + 24-hour volume > 3000 mL}; 1075/1035/1035 mL for {NPi > 0.33 + 24-hour volume > 40 mL/kg}; 900/745/630 mL for {NUP > 90 mL/hour + 24-hour volume > 3000 mL}; and 1074/1035/990 mL for {NUP > 90 mL/hour + 24-hour volume > 40 mL/kg}. CONCLUSIONS An inordinate NUV among men with NP is fairly sensitive for comorbid GP. In the appropriate clinical setting, nocturnal-only diaries may suffice in the evaluation and follow-up of patients with NP, so long as outlying nocturnal volumes prompt a 24-hour diary/urine collection.

Urology 2019; 133S:14-23. [PMID: 31369749 DOI: 10.1016/j.urology.2019.07.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2019] [Revised: 07/16/2019] [Accepted: 07/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Alterations to arginine vasopressin (AVP) secretion, the urinary bladder urothelium (UT) and other components of the bladder, and the water homeostasis biosystem may be relevant to the pathophysiology of nocturia and nocturnal polyuria (NP). AVP is the primary hormone involved in water homeostasis. Disruption to the physiological release of AVP or its target effects may relate to several urinary disturbances. Circadian dysregulation and the effects of aging, for example, the development of oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, may play a role in nocturia voiding symptoms. The urinary bladder UT not only acts as a highly efficient barrier that is maintained during the filling and voiding of the urinary bladder, but is also capable of sensory and transducer function through a network of functional receptors and ion channels that enable reciprocal communication between UT cells and neighboring elements of the bladder mucosa and wall. Functional components of the UT (eg, claudins and receptors or ion channels) play important roles in AVP-mediated water homeostasis. These components and functions involved in water homeostasis, as well as kidney function, may be affected by the aging process, including age-related mitochondrial dysfunction. The characteristics of NP are discussed and the association between NP and circadian rhythm is examined in light of reports that suggest that nocturia should be considered as a type of circadian dysfunction. Many possible pathologic mechanisms that underlie nocturia and NP have been identified. Future studies may provide further insight into pathophysiology with the hope of identifying new treatment modalities.

Abstract
Nocturia is a bothersome, multifactorial condition with many underlying causes and contributing factors. Nocturnal polyuria (NP; overproduction of urine at night) is a frequent component. The prevalence of nocturia increases with age; specific estimates of prevalence are influenced by frequency thresholds used to define it. There is a tendency toward higher prevalence in young women than young men, which is reversed in later life. The association between frequency of nocturnal voiding and sleep disruption is well-documented. Nocturia correlates strongly with shorter sleep during the first part (2-4 hours) of the night, during which the first nocturnal void often occurs. A short time to first void after sleep onset (often referred to as "first uninterrupted sleep period") is associated with increased daytime dysfunction and decreased sleep quality and/or sleep efficiency. Adverse health consequences related to nocturia include poor sleep, depression, reduced quality of life, and increased risk of morbidity, mortality, falls, and fractures; studies have been able to establish a causal role for nocturia in only some of these. The potential impact of nocturia on health increases with age. By age 80, 80% of people will rise at least once per night to void. Despite its associated bother, nocturia is often accepted as a natural consequence of aging and many people do not seek help. Women, in particular, may be reluctant to report nocturia. This article reviews the prevalence of nocturia, possible impact on sleep, mortality and morbidity, and falls, and its importance in the elderly/frail population and women.

Abstract
Nocturnal polyuria (NP), the most common etiology of nocturia, can be caused by various medical conditions, including cardiovascular disease, obstructive sleep apnea, renal tubular dysfunction, as well as medications (eg, diuretics) and/or behavioral patterns. NP in the absence of underlying medical conditions has been described as NP syndrome and is thought be the result of impaired circadian release of endogenous arginine vasopressin. Desmopressin, a synthetic arginine vasopressin analog, has been shown to be an effective replacement therapy in adults with nocturia due to NP. Further studies on the subset of patients with NP syndrome are warranted to maximize benefit from antidiuretic treatment. In addition, a connection between the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying NP and essential hypertension has been suggested, and hypertension has been shown to be a significant risk factor for nocturia, while an association between NP and brain natriuretic peptide levels has also been reported in patients with nocturia. Hypertension is now viewed as a disorder of blood vessels and treatment is directed at the vasculature rather than the blood pressure, with the latter currently serving as a biomarker for arterial injury. Nocturia is thought to be associated with the beginning of this cardiovascular continuum as studies have reported a link between coronary heart disease and nocturia. Therefore, there is an increasing need to elucidate the complex mechanisms implicated in the association between nocturia and hypertension to promote the development of more individualized therapies for the treatment of nocturia.

Metabolic syndrome and smoking are associated with persistence of nocturia after transurethral resection of the prostate. Neurourol Urodyn 2019; 38:1692-1699.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship between smoking, metabolic syndrome (MetS) and persistence of nocturia in patients with moderate/severe nocturia (nocturia episodes ≥2), lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs), and benign prostatic enlargement (BPE) undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). METHODS From 2015 onward, a consecutive series of patients with moderate/severe nocturia (nocturia episodes ≥2), LUTS, and BPE undergoing TURP were prospectively enrolled. Medical history, physical examination, and smoking status were recorded. MetS was defined according to Adult Treatment Panel III. Moderate/severe persistent nocturia after TURP was defined as nocturia episodes ≥2. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the risk of persisting nocturia. RESULTS One hundred two patients were enrolled with a median age of 70 years (interquartile range: 65/73). After TURP, moderate/severe nocturia was reported in 43 of 102 (42%) of the patients. Overall 40 of 102 (39%) patients presented a MetS, and out of them, 23 of 40 (58%) presented a moderate/severe persistent nocturia after TURP ( P = .001). Overall 62 of 102 (61%) patients were smokers, and out of them, 32 of 62 (52%) presented moderate/severe persistent nocturia after TURP ( P = .034). On multivariate analysis, prostate volume, MetS, and smoking were independent risk factors for moderate/severe persistent nocturia after TURP. CONCLUSION In our single-center study, MetS and smoking increased the risk of moderate/severe persistent nocturia after TURP in patients with LUTS-BPE. Although these results should be confirmed, and the pathophysiology is yet to be completely understood, counseling smokers and MetS patients about the risk of postoperative persistent nocturia is warranted.

Abstract
Objective: To report the current clinical features, treatment patterns and outcomes of female patients who were seen at a tertiary referral centre with a primary diagnosis of nocturia, and to assess the predictive factors of therapeutic management failure. Patients and methods: A retrospective chart review of all new female patients seen in a single-centre functional urology practice with the diagnosis of nocturia was performed. Up to three visits within a 12-month period from the time of presenting were reviewed. The primary endpoint was patient-reported improvement assessed at each follow-up visit and the change in the number of nocturia episodes. Results: In all, 239 female patients were included for analysis. The prevalence of nocturnal polyuria, reduced bladder capacity, and global polyuria were 75%, 40.2%, and 18.1%, respectively. Within the first two visits, 72.7% of patients had started a treatment beyond behavioural therapies. Anticholinergics were the most commonly initiated treatment (47.2% of patients). At the latest considered visit, 80 patients reported improvement in nocturia (45.5%) and there was a mean – 0.8 decrease in the number of nocturia episodes from 4 to 3.2, which was statistically significant (P < 0.001). There was no statistically significant association between any of the bladder diary findings and treatment outcomes. A smaller number of nocturia episodes was the only predictive factor of therapeutic management failure in multivariate analysis (odds ratio 0.10; P = 0.01). Conclusions: Whilst the prevalence of nocturnal polyuria in women with nocturia is high, the therapeutic management until 2016 seemed to rely mostly upon overactive bladder medications with a relatively low success rate.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES The goal of this study was to compare the urge perception associated with nocturnal voiding at the time of voiding in individuals with and without depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), or anxiety diagnoses to test the hypothesis that patients with such diagnoses are more likely to experience insomnia-driven convenience voiding during the sleep period. METHODS A database of voiding diaries with urge perception grades (UPGs) from 429 adult males seeking treatment for nocturia at a Veterans Affairs-based urology clinic was analyzed. The UPG categorizes perception for urinating from 0 (out of convenience) to 4 (desperate urge). Diaries completed by males age 18 years and older showing ≥ 2 nocturnal voids were included. Those included (n = 178) were divided into two cohorts based on the presence (n = 62) or absence (n = 116) of one or more previously established mental health diagnoses (depression, PTSD, or anxiety). The chi-square test was used to determine significance between groups. RESULTS Patients with a mental health diagnosis were more likely to report convenience voiding compared to those without depression, PTSD, or anxiety (14.5% versus 0.8%, P < .01). However, most voids in both groups were associated with the perception of urinary urgency. There were no differences in urinary volumes or hourly rates of urine production between the groups. CONCLUSIONS A relatively small subset of urology patients experience nocturnal voiding because they are awake for reasons other than the urge to void. Mental health factors had a substantial, albeit minimal, effect. Most nocturia reflects urgency to urinate rather than voiding by convenience.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether treatment of overactive bladder (OAB), one comorbidity of nocturia, could reduce waking to void and improve other co-existing symptoms. METHODS A prospective cohort study was conducted at Royal Melbourne Hospital. Participants received 12 weeks of standard treatment, including lifestyle interventions and pharmacotherapy. Outcome measures were nocturia episodes, severity of urinary urgency/incontinence, sleep quality, daytime somnolence, anxiety and depression scores, quality of life and change in blood pressure. RESULTS Twenty participants completed the study. Nocturia frequency improved by one void per night. Overactive Bladder Symptom Score, sleep quality, first uninterrupted sleep time and systolic blood pressures improved. There were no significant changes in daytime somnolence, mood or quality of life. CONCLUSIONS In this pilot study, nocturia and other co-morbid dysfunctions appeared to improve when the severity of OAB was reduced. Treatment of OAB co-morbid with nocturia reduces urinary symptoms and may improve sleep parameters and positively impact return to health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE In addition to the evaluation of voiding symptoms, in the evaluation of patients with nocturia, one should also consider other related causes such as sleep disorders, obstructive sleep apnoea (OSAS), diabetes and heart failure. In this study, we have aimed to assess the current knowledge and implementation of the EAU guidelines regarding nocturia in common urological practice in the Netherlands. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS In a national cross-sectional survey distributed among 450 urologists and urology residents in the Netherlands, the implementation of the recommendations of the European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines on nocturia evaluation and management was studied. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS This survey revealed that only some aspects of the EAU guidelines are applied in the daily clinical practice and that some important parts are not. For example, only a minority asks about alcohol consumption and symptoms suggestive for diabetes or OSAS. In addition, a majority reported to use a bladder diary for 1-3 days instead of for a minimum of 3 days as recommended by the EAU guidelines. In the management of nocturia, a trial of timed diuretic therapy is only reported by a minority, whereas the use of beta-3 antagonists, which is not mentioned in the guidelines, is applied by a large majority. Desmopressin recommended for nocturnal polyuria is prescribed by two-third of Dutch urologists. CONCLUSIONS These observations mandate better education and campaigns to raise the awareness on the EAU-guideline recommendations for nocturia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The terminology for nocturia and nocturnal lower urinary tract function is reviewed and updated in a clinically and practically-based consensus report. METHODS This report has been created by a Working Group under the auspices and guidelines of the International Continence Society (ICS) Standardisation Steering Committee (SSC). All relevant definitions were updated on the basis of research over the last 16 years since the publication of the first nocturia standardization document in 2002. An extensive process of 16 rounds of internal and external reviews was involved to examine each definition exhaustively, with decision-making by collective opinion (consensus). RESULTS A clinically-based terminology report for nocturia and nocturnal lower urinary tract function, encompassing five key definitions divided into signs and symptoms has been developed. Clarity and user-friendliness have been key aims to make it interpretable by healthcare professionals and allied healthcare practitioners involved in the care of individuals with nocturnal lower urinary tract function. CONCLUSION A consensus-based terminology report for nocturia and nocturnal lower urinary tract function has been produced to aid clinical practice and research.

Abstract
Aims SYNERGY II was a 12‐month phase III trial in patients with overactive bladder (OAB) symptoms that investigated the safety and efficacy of the combination of mirabegron and solifenacin in comparison with each monotherapy. This analysis evaluated the trial findings using four age subgroups (<65, ≥65, <75, and ≥75 years). Methods Eligible patients were ≥18 years with symptoms of “wet” OAB (urinary frequency and urgency with incontinence) for ≥3 months. Patients were randomized to receive once‐daily solifenacin succinate and mirabegron (5 mg/50 mg; combination), solifenacin succinate, or mirabegron (4:1:1). Safety evaluations: treatment‐emergent adverse events (TEAEs), vital signs, and electrocardiogram, post‐void residual volume, and laboratory assessments. Primary efficacy variables: change from baseline to end of treatment in number of incontinence episodes/24 h and micturitions/24 h. Results Of 1794 patients (full analysis set), 614 (34.2%) and 168 (9.4%) were ≥65 and ≥75 years old, respectively. Overall, 856 (47.2%) patients experienced ≥1 TEAE. Higher TEAE incidences were typically observed for the combination versus both monotherapies (eg, constipation) and in the older versus younger age groups (eg, urinary tract infection). Increases in mean pulse rate from baseline of >1 bpm were noted in the combination and mirabegron younger age groups only. No clinically significant findings were observed in the other safety parameters. The efficacy variables improved with all treatments and the greatest improvements were typically observed with combination therapy. Conclusions Mirabegron and solifenacin combination therapy was a well‐tolerated and effective treatment for patients with OAB symptoms irrespective of their age.

Abstract
Nocturnal polyuria (NP) is characterised by increased urine production overnight in comparison to daytime. It has significant adverse events in adults including reduced quality of life, increased risk of falls and increased mortality.Although NP can be a manifestation of other significant conditions like heart failure and sleep apnoea, there are lots of unanswered questions about NP. What is the underlying pathophysiology? Is NP a physiological manifestation of ageing? Is the circadian change of vasopressin release the primary pathology? Or is it a secondary phenomenon to a low diurnal production of urine? Is the primary pathology at the kidney level or is there another humoral, cardiac, or endovascular element? In this article, we summarise the available English-language literature on the subject of NP, including its epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment.Level of evidence: Not applicable for this multicentre audit.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nocturia is the most frequently reported lower urinary tract symptom, but the impact of medical and surgical treatments on this symptom remains poorly evaluated. The objective of this work was to carry out a systematic review of the literature on the medical and surgical management of nocturia in men with bladder outlet obstruction due to benign prostatic hyperplasia. MATERIAL AND METHOD A systematic review of the literature was conducted including the effects of medical and surgical treatments on nocturia. Articles were selected by 3 independent reviewers before being analyzed and synthesized. RESULTS Among medical treatments, the most effective on nocturia seems to be desmopressin. Nevertheless, prescribing restrictions to men under 65 years of age hinder its use in routine practice. The effect of other medical treatments remains modest, although significant compared to placebo groups. The decrease in the number of nocturia would decrease from 0.25 to 0.7 in placebo group and from 0.29 to 1.1 in active treatment groups (alpha blocker, diuretic, anti-inflammatory, IPDE-5, 5 alpha reductase inhibitor). Surgical treatments seem to be more effective on nocturia. Although persistent in half of the patients undergoing surgery, the number of nocturia episodes decreased in 70% of them. CONCLUSION Nocturia is one of the most common urinary symptoms and the one that responds the least to the proposed medical and surgical treatments. The information given to patients by urologists must emphasize the modest effects to be expected in this area.

Abstract
Nocturia, defined as waking at night to pass urine, is a common condition which increases with age. Whilst nocturia is known to have an important effect on quality of life, more recent evidence has linked the symptom with significant morbidity and mortality due to the effects of sleep deprivation on glucose metabolism and the immune system. The causes of nocturia are multifactorial and may be related to urine overproduction, storage disorders and primary sleep disorders. The commonest underlying pathology, however, is nocturnal polyuria, which may be associated with a number of medical conditions. This review explores the underlying causes of nocturia and nocturnal polyuria and, by doing so, describes a multidisciplinary approach to managing patients effectively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the useful explorations in the clinical evaluation of the symptoms of the lower urinary tract symptoms possibly related to BPH (LUTS/BPH), and to list the information necessary to allow an evaluation of an instrumental or surgical intervention in the treatment of the hypertrophy and benign prostatic obstruction. METHOD Bibliographic research in English using the European, American and French recommendations on the evaluation of BPH, supplemented by a Pubmed search. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS A number of systematic investigations into the evaluation of a man with LUTS/BPH include interrogation, clinical examination with rectal examination, urinalysis, flowmeter and post-micturition residual volume. The voiding catalog is necessary to understand the mechanism of a nocturia. PSA has a triple potential of interest: evaluation of the risk of progression, evaluation of the prostatic volume and diagnosis of a cancer of the prostate. Creatinine is needed only when chronic retention is observed and before surgery. Urethrocystoscopy is essential in case of hematuria, suspicion of stenosis of the urethra or bladder tumor. Ultrasound for evaluation of prostate volume is essential before surgery, and may be helpful in guiding the decision to prescribe a 5 alpha reductase inhibitor. No non-invasive technique has proven its possible substitution for pressure flow studies when indicated. When a researcher is considering evaluating a surgical or instrumental treatment for BPH, preoperative, perioperative and follow-up parameters are expected from readers to get a fair idea of the technique being evaluated. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 5: Consensus d'experts.

Abstract
Supplemental digital content is available in the text. Objectives In addition to motor symptoms, bladder dysfunction is a major clinical issue in patients with Parkinson disease (PD). Istradefylline is adenosine A2A receptor antagonist approved for PD patients with wearing-off symptoms. The aim of this study was to determine the long-term effects of istradefylline on lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs) in PD patients. Methods We enrolled 14 male PD patients. The mean age of patients was 73 years (61–77 years), the Hoehn-Yahr stage was 2 (2–3), and disease duration was 9 years (3–28 years). The effects of istradefylline (20 mg/d) on LUTSs in PD patients with motor complications after 3, 6, and 12 months of therapy were evaluated based on the International Prostate Symptom Score and Overactive Bladder Symptom Score before and after its administration. Results Motor symptoms significantly improved at 12 months' administration (Movement Disorder Society–sponsored revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale part III: 30.0 ± 12.9 vs 13.8 ± 8.1; P < 0.01). Significant improvements were also observed in the answers provided on urinary questionnaires (International Prostate Symptom Score, 14.4 ± 7.6 vs 8.5 ± 6.8; Overactive Bladder Symptom Score, 6.9 ± 2.8 vs 5.5 ± 3.7; P < 0.05). Nighttime urinary frequency and the percentage of the nocturnal urine volume also improved significantly at 3 months' administration (P < 0.01). Conclusions Istradefylline effectively improved not only motor symptoms, but also LUTSs in patients with PD.

Abstract
Nocturia is a common symptom which causes sleeping disorders in the elderly. A number of studies have demonstrated that acupuncture may modulate a wide range of neuro endocrinological factors following stimulation of acupoints. We aim to examine the effect of acupuncture treatment and
plasma levels of ADH, melatonin hormone and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) on nocturia patients. 28 healthy women subjects (Group I) and 27 women nocturia patients (Group II) have been joined to our study. Following a total of 10 acupuncture sessions has been applied with two sessions per
week, we took blood samples from the nocturia patients (Group III). Plasma antidiuretic hormone, melatonin and TAC levels were studied by Elisa method. As a result, all of the patients responded to acupuncture treatment positively. In our study, patients with nocturnal polyuria (Group II)
showed significantly low plasma antidiuretic hormone and melatonin levels in comparison to the Group I(p<0.001). Although plasma melatonin levels showed an increase by 12.35% in Group III in comparison to Group II, plasma ADH levels did not change between the two groups. Thus, it was concluded
that melatonin could be beneficial for nocturia via central nervous system effect. Patients with nocturnal polyuria (Group II) plasma TAC level showed a decrease when compared with the control group (Group I). However, the plasma TAC level decreased by 9.83% following the 10th session in Group
III in comparison to Group II (p=0,044). Based on our results we concluded that acupuncture treatment has a regulatory effect on plasma melatonin levels in patients with nocturia and can be used in the treatment of nocturia patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Nocturia in women is a notable health concern, associated with significant morbidity and decreases in health-related quality of life. It is implicated in daytime somnolence and poor sleep quality, and has been found to negatively impact household activities, work, exercise, and sexual activity. This review is intended to relay new information regarding the prevalence, cause, risk factors, ramifications, and treatment options for nocturia in women as it gains traction as a clinical entity in and of itself. RECENT FINDINGS New literature exposes the prevalence and burden of nocturia among young, healthy nulliparous women; reveals its presence in women without daytime symptoms; suggests its relationship with abnormal bowel function; and supports its association with obesity, cardiac burden and poor sleep. The link between nocturia and menopause has been challenged, and recent nomenclature describing the genitourinary symptoms of menopause excludes it from the list. Desmopressin and tamsulosin trials in women have demonstrated safety and efficacy in limiting nocturia frequency and severity, as well as in improving sleep parameters. SUMMARY Nocturia is an impactful health issue at risk of being missed, especially in younger female patients. Open dialogue, purposeful questioning, and screening surveys can help elicit this symptom in women who are embarrassed or who accredit it to normal aging and therefore do not seek medical attention. In light of a growing geriatric population, nocturia is a clinical entity of increasing importance as it can be a clue to underlying systemic disorder or it can be an isolated symptom with significant clinical implications if left unaddressed.
