Wang Q, Alshayyah R, Yang B. The efficacy and safety of desmopressin acetate applied for nocturia in benign prostatic hyperplasia patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Low Urin Tract Symptoms 2022; 14:155-162. [PMID: 35034423 DOI: 10.1111/luts.12423] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2021] [Revised: 12/15/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Desmopressin acetate was recommended for nocturia in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients recently, but its effect and safety is still controversial. We aimed to establish a systematic review and meta-analysis to confirm its effect on symptom relief and adverse effects. METHODS A systematic search was performed in PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Medline, Web of Science and Science Direct databases from January 2000 to October 2021 for controlled trials of BPH patients comparing oral desmopressin with control groups. The mean difference (MD) and odds ratio (OR) were meta-analyzed. RESULTS Four articles with 500 patients were included. Significantly greater benefit was detected for the desmopressin group in the improvement of nocturia (P = .004), international prostate symptom score - storage (IPSS-S) (P = .03), and quality of life (QoL) (P = .04) scores. Patients treated with desmopressin were at higher risk than the control group for short-term adverse events (P < .001), including nausea (4.71%, P = .04), headache (20%, P < .00001), dizziness (5.88%, P = .02) and hyponatremia (4.71%, P = .04), but the long-term incidence might decrease. CONCLUSION Desmopressin acetate can reduce nocturia frequency and improve the IPSS-S and QoL score in BPH patients. Some adverse reactions of desmopressin, such as hyponatremia, headache, dizziness and nausea, may be mild and short-term. No significant difference of desmopressin was found in improving the overall IPSS score and maximum urine flow.

Int J Clin Pract 2019; 73:e13306. [PMID: 30556626 PMCID: PMC6767697 DOI: 10.1111/ijcp.13306] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2018] [Revised: 12/10/2018] [Accepted: 12/10/2018] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The main objective of our study was to determine which combination of modifiable and non-modifiable parameters that could discriminate patients with nocturia from those without nocturia. This was a post-hoc analysis of 3 prospective, observational studies conducted in Ghent University. Participants completed frequency volume chart (FVC) to compare characteristics between patients with and without nocturia. METHOD This was a post hoc analysis of three prospective, observational studies conducted in Ghent University. Participants completed frequency volume chart (FVC) to compare characteristics between adults with and without nocturia. Study 1: adults with and without nocturia (n = 148); Study 2: patients ≥65 years with and without nocturnal LUTS (n = 54); Study 3: menopausal women before and after hormone replacement therapy (n = 43). All eligible patients (n = 183) completed a FVC during 24 hours (n = 13), 48 hours (n = 30) or 72 hours (n = 140). The combination of algorithms and number of determinants obtaining the best average area under the receiver operating curve (AUC-ROC) led to the final model. Differences between groups were assessed using the AUC-ROC and Mann- Whitney-Wilcoxon tests. Holm corrections were applied for multiple statistical testing. Also, the stability of the feature selection was evaluated. RESULTS The best discrimination was obtained when 13 determinants were included. However, a logistic regression model based on seven determinants selected with random forest had comparable discrimination including an optimal signature stability. It was able to discriminate almost perfectly between nights with and without nocturia. CONCLUSION Relevant information to accomplish the excellent predictability of the model is; functional bladder capacity, 24 hours urine output, nocturnal output, age, BMI. The multivariate model used in this analysis provides new insights into combination therapy as it allows simulating the effect of different available treatment modalities and its combinations.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effect of oral desmopressin in patients with nocturia associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Patients and methods With a rise of the use of oral desmopressin in the treatment of nocturia in patients with BPH, a systematic review was performed according to the Cochrane systematic reviews guidelines and in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) checklist. Results The literature search yielded 18 studies. The studies were published between 1980 and 2017, and included 3072 patients. Eligible patients were men aged ≥50 years with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and persistent nocturia. There was a significant 43% reduction in nocturia after using desmopressin alone. Combined α-blockers and desmopressin lead to a decrease in the frequency of night voids by 64.3% compared to 44.6% when using α-blockers only. The first sleep period, significantly increased from 82.1 to 160.0 min and from 83.2 to 123.8 min when using desmopressin + α-blocker and α-blocker only, respectively. The desmopressin dose ranged from the lowest dose (0.05 mg) to the optimum dose (0.4 mg) at bed time. The incidence of hyponatraemia associated with desmopressin use was 4.4–5.7%. Conclusion Low-dose oral desmopressin therapy alone is an effective treatment for nocturia associated with LUTS in patients with BPH. Oral desmopressin combined with α-blockers is well tolerated and beneficial for improving the International Prostate Symptom Score and nocturnal symptoms. All patients should be educated about the mechanism of desmopressin action to avoid treatment discontinuation due to adverse events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the effects of desmopressin as compared to other interventions in the treatment of nocturia in men. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a comprehensive search using multiple databases and abstract proceedings with no restrictions on the language of publication or publication status, up until August 2017. We included randomised or quasi-randomised trials. Inclusion criteria were men with nocturia defined as one or more voids per night. Two review authors independently examined full-text reports, identified relevant studies, assessed the eligibility of studies for inclusion, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias. We performed statistical analyses using a random-effects model and assessed the quality of the evidence (QoE) according to Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE). RESULTS We included 14 studies with 2 966 randomised men across five comparisons (we did not include one comparison [desmopressin vs behaviour modification] in the abstract due to a lack of data with regard to primary outcomes). Desmopressin vs placebo: based on short-term follow-up (≤3 months), desmopressin may have a similar effect on the number of nocturnal voids (mean difference [MD] -0.46, 95% confidence interval [CI] -0.94 to 0.01; low QoE). We are uncertain about the effect of desmopressin on major adverse events (risk ratio [RR] 0.97, 95% CI: 0.10-9.03; very low QoE). For intermediate-term follow-up (3-12 months), desmopressin may reduce the number of nocturnal voids in an appreciable number of men (MD -0.85, 95% CI: -1.17 to -0.53; low QoE). Desmopressin may result in little or no difference in major adverse events (RR 3.05, 95% CI: 0.13-73.39; low QoE). We found no evidence on quality of life. Desmopressin vs α-blocker (AB): based on short-term follow-up, desmopressin likely has a similar effect on the number of nocturnal voids (MD 0.30, 95% CI: -0.20 to 0.80; moderate QoE) and quality of life (MD 0.00, 95% CI: -0.35 to 0.35; moderate QoE). There were no major adverse events in either study group. Desmopressin plus AB vs AB alone: based on short-term follow-up, combined therapy likely results in a small, unimportant reduction in the number of nocturnal voids (MD -0.47, 95% CI: -0.73 to -0.21; moderate QoE) and quality of life (MD -0.29, 95% CI: -0.51 to -0.07; moderate QoE). The risk of major adverse events may be similar (RR 0.30, 95% CI: 0.01-7.32; low QoE). Desmopressin plus AB vs AB plus an anticholinergic: based on short-term follow-up, combined therapy likely results in little or no difference in the number of nocturnal voids (MD -0.43, 95% CI: -0.97 to 0.11; moderate QoE). We found no evidence on quality of life. There were no major adverse events in either study group. CONCLUSIONS Desmopressin may reduce the number of nocturnal voids compared to placebo up to 12 months of follow-up without increase in major adverse events. The effect on the number of nocturnal voids is likely similar to that of ABs with very infrequent major adverse events. There appears to be no added benefit in the combined use of an AB or an anticholinergic with desmopressin.

Abstract
Introduction Nocturia is defined as the urge to urinate at night when the micturition was directly preceded and followed by sleep. Due to its negative impact on the quality of life of patients, an effective treatment for this disease has become a significant therapeutic challenge. The aim of this article was to explain the main risk factors for the occurrence of nocturia and to present diagnostic and therapeutic schemes in the case of nocturnal polyuria (idiopathic night time polyuria). Material and methods A review of the literature was carried out and the available guidelines of international science societies, which provided the basis for the above recommendations, were analyzed. Results Detailed medical history should include information concerning: lower urinary tract symptoms (including nocturia), underlying illnesses, urogenital disorders, previous surgeries and medications administered. Keeping a bladder diary is recommended. The physical examination, depending on the patient's gender, should include gynecological examination with pelvic organ prolapse assessment or prostate evaluation. In laboratory tests, a urinalysis may be used, in particular cases a cytological analysis of urine sediment may be carried out. In addition, a possible ultrasound and/or cystoscopy may be conducted. Nocturia therapy should begin with modifying dietary habits, including compliance with the fluid regimen, avoiding alcohol, coffee and tea. Moderate physical exercise is also recommended. The pharmacological treatment of nocturia caused by nocturnal polyuria is based on the use of desmopressin at a daily single dose of 25 µg for women and 50 µg for men. The use of desmopressin allows for the reduction in the number of nocturia episodes, as well as improves the overall quality of life and sleep. Treatment with desmopressin can also be considered as a form of therapy added in people with an overactive bladder or benign prostatic hyperplasia, in which nocturia is a significant clinical problem. Conclusions Desmopressin is an effective and safe first-line treatment option in pharmacological therapy of nocturia caused by nocturnal polyuria.

Abstract
AIM To raise awareness on nocturia disease burden and to provide simplified aetiologic evaluation and related treatment pathways. METHODS A multidisciplinary group of nocturia experts developed practical advice and recommendations based on the best available evidence supplemented by their own experiences. RESULTS Nocturia is defined as the need to void ≥1 time during the sleeping period of the night. Clinically relevant nocturia (≥2 voids per night) affects 2%-18% of those aged 20-40 years, rising to 28%-62% for those aged 70-80 years. Consequences include the following: lowered quality of life; falls and fractures; reduced work productivity; depression; and increased mortality. Nocturia-related hip fractures alone cost approximately €1 billion in the EU and $1.5 billion in the USA in 2014. The pathophysiology of nocturia is multifactorial and typically related to polyuria (either global or nocturnal), reduced bladder capacity or increased fluid intake. Accurate assessment is predicated on frequency-volume charts combined with a detailed patient history, medicine review and physical examination. Optimal treatment should focus on the underlying cause(s), with lifestyle modifications (eg, reducing evening fluid intake) being the first intervention. For patients with sustained bother, medical therapies should be introduced; low-dose, gender-specific desmopressin has proven effective in nocturia due to idiopathic nocturnal polyuria. The timing of diuretics is an important consideration, and they should be taken mid-late afternoon, dependent on the specific serum half-life. Patients not responding to these basic treatments should be referred for specialist management. CONCLUSIONS The cause(s) of nocturia should be first evaluated in all patients. Afterwards, the underlying pathophysiology should be treated specifically, alone with lifestyle interventions or in combination with drugs or (prostate) surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nocturia is the bothersome symptom of awakening one or more times per night to void. Desmopressin is a commonly used medication for treating nocturia. OBJECTIVES To assess the effects of desmopressin as compared to other interventions in the treatment of nocturia in men. SEARCH METHODS We performed a comprehensive search of medical literature with no restrictions on the language of publication or publication status. The date of the latest search of all databases was August 2017. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomized or quasi-randomized trials. Inclusion criteria were men with nocturia defined as one or more voids per night. Trials of children, adults with primary or secondary enuresis or underlying distinct disorders were excluded. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors independently classified studies and abstracted data from the included studies. We performed statistical analyses using a random-effects model and interpreted data according to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. MAIN RESULTS We included 14 studies with 2966 randomized men across five comparisons. Desmopressin versus placebo: based on short-term follow-up (up to three months), desmopressin may have a similar effect on the number of nocturnal voids (mean difference (MD) -0.46, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.94 to 0.01; low-quality evidence). We are uncertain about the effect of desmopressin on major adverse events at short-term follow-up (risk ratio (RR) 0.97, 95% CI 0.10 to 9.03; very low-quality evidence). For intermediate-term follow-up (three to 12 months), desmopressin may reduce the number of nocturnal voids in an appreciable number of participants (MD -0.85, 95% CI -1.17 to -0.53; low-quality evidence). Desmopressin may result in little or no difference in major adverse events at intermediate-term follow-up (RR 3.05, 95% CI 0.13 to 73.39; low-quality evidence). We found no evidence on quality of life. Subgroup analyses suggest a larger effect with oral, higher-dose formulations of desmopressin and in men with documented nocturnal polyuria. Desmopressin versus behavior modification: there were no data regarding the effect on the number of nocturnal voids, quality of life, or major adverse events. Desmopressin versus alpha-blocker: based on short-term follow-up, desmopressin likely has a similar effect on the number of nocturnal voids (MD 0.30, 95% CI -0.20 to 0.80; moderate-quality evidence) and quality of life (MD 0.00, 95% CI -0.35 to 0.35; moderate-quality evidence). There were no major adverse events in either study group. Desmopressin plus alpha-blocker versus alpha-blocker alone: based on short-term follow-up, combination therapy likely results in a small, unimportant reduction in the number of nocturnal voids (MD -0.47, 95% CI -0.73 to -0.21; moderate-quality evidence) and quality of life (MD -0.29, 95% CI -0.51 to -0.07; moderate-quality evidence). The risk of major adverse events may be similar (RR 0.30, 95% CI 0.01 to 7.32; low-quality evidence). Desmopressin plus alpha-blocker versus alpha-blocker plus an anticholinergic: based on short-term follow-up, combination therapy likely results in little or no difference in the number of nocturnal voids (MD -0.43, 95% CI -0.97 to 0.11; moderate-quality evidence). We found no evidence on quality of life. There were no major adverse events in either study group. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Desmopressin may reduce the number of nocturnal voids in an appreciable number of participants compared to placebo in intermediate-term (three to 12 months) follow-up without increase in major adverse events. We found no evidence to compare its effects to behavior modification. The effect on the number of nocturnal voids is likely similar to that of alpha-blockers short-term with very infrequent major adverse events. There appears to be no added benefit in the combined use of desmopressin with an alpha-blocker or an anticholinergic. The findings of this review were limited by short-term follow-up, study limitations, and imprecision.
