Abstract
Nocturia is a manifestation of systemic diseases, in which chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an independent predictor of nocturia due to its osmotic diuretic mechanism. However, to our knowledge, previous studies have not examined the association between nocturia and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The purpose of this study was to assess the association between nocturia exposure and eGFR in the general US population. This study presents a cross-sectional analysis of the general US population enrolled in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2005 to 2018. To account for potential confounding factors, linear regression analysis was conducted to investigate the association between nocturia and eGFR. Stratified analyses and interaction tests were employed to examine the variables of interest. Additionally, sensitivity analyses were conducted across diverse populations. A total of 12,265 individuals were included in the study. After controlling for confounding factors, the results of the linear regression analysis indicated that a single increase in nocturnal voiding frequency was associated with a decrease in eGFR by 2.0 mL/min/1.73 m2. In comparison to individuals with a nocturnal urinary frequency of 0, those who voided 1, 2, 3, 4, and ≥ 5 times at night experienced a decrease in eGFR by 3.1, 5.4, 6.4, 8.6 and 4.0 mL/min/1.73 m2, respectively. Nocturia was found to be associated with a decreased eGFR of 4 mL/min/1.73 m2 when compared to individuals without nocturia. The sensitivity analysis yielded consistent findings regarding the association between nocturia and eGFR in both CKD and non-CKD populations, as well as in hypertensive and non-hypertensive populations. Nevertheless, inconsistent conclusions were observed across various prognostic risk populations within the CKD context. The presence of nocturia and heightened frequency of nocturnal urination have been found to be associated with a decline in eGFR.

Impact of Nocturnal Polyuria and Sleep Quality in Kidney Transplant Recipients With Nocturia. Transplant Proc 2023:S0041-1345(23)00100-8. [PMID: 36934056 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2023.02.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023]
Abstract
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. Clinical and laboratory data were obtained from medical charts. RESULTS Forty-three patients were included in the analysis. Approximately 25% of patients urinated once at night, and 58.1% had nocturia twice. Nocturnal polyuria was observed in 86.0% of patients, and overactive bladder was observed in 23.3% of patients. According to the Pittsburgh sleep quality Index, 34.9% of patients had poor sleep quality. Multivariate analysis revealed that patients with nocturnal polyuria tended to have a high estimated glomerular filtration rate (P = .058). On the other hand, multivariate analysis for poor sleep quality revealed that high body fat percentage and low nocturia-quality of life total score were independently correlated factors (P = .008 and P = .012, respectively). Furthermore, the patients with nocturia ≥3/night were significantly older than those with nocturia ≤2/night (P = .022). CONCLUSION Nocturnal polyuria, poor sleep quality, and aging may decrease the QOL of patients with nocturia after KT. Further investigations, including optimal water intake and interventions, can lead to better management after KT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To propose surgical recommendations for the management of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and urinary incontinence in kidney transplant recipients and candidates. METHOD Following a systematic approach, a review of the literature (Medline) was conducted by the CTAFU focusing on medical and surgical treatment of LUTS and urinary incontinence in kidney transplant recipients and candidates. References were assessed according to a predefined process to propose recommendations with levels of evidence. RESULTS Functional bladder capacity and bladder compliance are impaired during dialysis. LUTS, related to pre-kidney transplantion alterations, frequently improve spontaneously after kidney transplantation. LUTS secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) may be underestimated before kidney transplantation due to oliguria, low bladder compliance and low bladder capacity. In LUTS associated with BPH, anticholinergics require dosage adjustment with creatinine clearance. If surgery is indicated after kidney transplantation, procedure can be safely performed in the early post-transplant course after removal of ureteral stent. Surgical management of urinary incontinence does not seem to be associated with an icreased risk for infectious complications in kidney transplant recipients. Particular attention should be paid to the management of postvoid residual and bladder pressures in case of neurological bladder disease. Optimal care of neurological bladder should be provided prior to transplantation: with a cautious management, and despite an increased occurrence of febrile urinary tract infections, transplant survival is not compromised. CONCLUSION These recommendations must contribute to improve the management of lower urinary tract symptoms and urinary incontinence in kidney transplant patients and kidney transplant candidates.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Renal transplantation offers a better quality of life and survival rate for patients with end-stage renal disease. However, voiding dysfunction may have results such as decreased bladder capacity that have been observed in patients with prolonged oliguria or anuria, impacting a patient's quality of life. This study aimed to investigate preoperative factors associated with the occurrence of voiding dysfunction after renal transplantation. METHODS Seventy-one patients' data who had undergone successful renal transplantation at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital in Jakarta were collected. Preoperative characteristics including age, sex, history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, preoperative anuria, and duration of renal substitution therapy were obtained. Multivariate analysis were performed examining the correlation of preoperative characteristics with postoperative voiding dysfunction measured by International Prostate Symptom Score storage (IPSS-s) sub-score > 5, overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS) > 5, maximum flow rate (Qmax) > 15 mL/cc, and postvoid residual volume (PVR) > 50 mL. RESULTS A significant correlation of IPSS-s score suggesting storage problem with duration of preoperative dialysis was observed (odds ratio [OR] 1.052; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.006-1.1001, P = .027). Older age and preoperative anuria were positively correlated with OABSS score > 5 (OR 1.104 and 33.567, P value .004 and .002, respectively). Negative correlation was observed between male sex and Qmax > 15mL/s (OR 1.73; 95% CI 0.033-1.907, P = .038). Male sex was negatively correlated with PVR > 50 mL (OR 0.231; P = .043) but positively correlated with the presence history of diabetes mellitus (OR 8.146; 95% CI 1.548-42.864, P = .013). CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that assessment of patient age, sex, and past medical history could help determine patients' risk for developing voiding dysfunction after renal transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bladder dysfunction after kidney transplantation (KTx) impairs the patients' quality of life. We examined the bladder function status perioperatively in patients undergoing KTx and performed a randomized prospective study to determine the efficacy of an antimuscarinic agent, solifenacin, in ameliorating the bladder dysfunction after KTx. METHODS The subjects in this study were 33 patients who underwent KTx at our institution. The patients were divided into two groups: group 1 (n=18), composed of patients who were not treated with any antimuscarinic agent, and group 2 (n=15), composed of patients treated with an antimuscarinic agent. We investigated the actual bladder function status of these patients before and after KTx by the following two methods: (1) video water cystometry and (2) questionnaire study using the Overactive Bladder Symptom Score and King's Health Questionnaire. RESULTS The cystometry study revealed a significantly greater increase of the maximum cystometric capacity in group 2 than in group 1 (173.0±60.7 mL in group 1 and 260.1±51.0 mL in group 2 [P=0.005]) after KTx. In the questionnaire surveys, the decreases in the scores for all domains were observed 6 weeks after KTx. The scores in group 2 tended to be lower than those in group 1. CONCLUSION In all of our patients, the bladder dysfunction status improved dramatically after KTx. In addition, our results suggest that administration of the antimuscarinic agent, solifenacin, may contribute to improvement of the quality of life of patients undergoing KTx.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE • To evaluate the success of endoscopic dextranomer/hyaluronic acid copolymer (DHAC) application in the treatment of patients with recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) and vesico-ureteric reflux (VUR) into the transplanted graft after renal transplantation. PATIENTS AND METHODS • Between January 2008 and April 2009, 19 patients with recurrent UTIs presented VUR proven by voiding cystourethrography. • To correct VUR of the transplanted ureter, DHAC was injected endoscopically using hydrodistention technique. • Pre- and postoperative serum creatinine levels, the number of pre- and postoperative UTIs, postoperative complications and reflux resolution rate were recorded. The mean follow-up was 6.5 months. RESULTS • The average number of UTIs was reduced significantly from 4.89 (range 2-14) to 1.31 (range 0-4) on pre- and postoperative follow-up, respectively, of 6 months (P < 0.001). The success rate increased from 57.9% after the first injection to 78.9% after the second injection. • The remaining four patients with residual VUR received long-term low dose antibiotic prophylaxis. In total, two (10.5%) patients developed increasing creatinine levels postoperatively as a result of distal ureteral obstruction, and temporary urinary drainage was necessary in both patients. CONCLUSIONS • DHAC appears to be an efficient and minimal invasive method for treating VUR after renal transplantation with respect to short-term success. • Further investigation with a larger group of patients and longer follow-up is needed to evaluate the prolonged effect, as well as any potential side effects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the bladder function of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients by using video H(2)O cystometry (CM) before renal transplantation (RTx). METHODS A total of 92 patients (57 men and 35 women; mean age 45.4 years; mean period of renal replacement therapy (RRT) 60.2 months) were divided in two groups based on the presence of detrusor overactivity (DO). In each group the following parameters were recorded during CM: first sensation (FS), maximum cystometric capacity (MC) and compliance. The effect of the duration of RRT on the H(2)O cystometric results was also assessed. RESULTS There were 25 patients (27.2%) who had DO before their operation, this ratio being higher than the general Japanese population. Subjects with DO were observed independently for the duration of RRT and there was no difference in the prevalence of DO based on this variable. In contrast, 50 patients kept their bladder compliance in the normal range. The numerical value of FS, MC and compliance decreased proportionally for the duration of RRT. CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing RTx frequently present with bladder dysfunction in terms of low capacity, low compliance and also DO. This bladder dysfunction has a negative impact on patients' quality of life. Thus, bladder function and its related symptoms require specific attention during the management of transplant patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the role of video-urodynamic examination prior to renal transplantation. METHODS Sixty-four kidney transplant recipients were included into the study. All patients underwent video-urodynamic examination and separate uroflowmetry. Results were evaluated based on daily mean amount of urine, duration of chronic renal failure and presence of diabetes mellitus. RESULTS Thirty-five (54.6%) patients showed video-urodynamic abnormalities. The mean detrusor capacity was 234 ml, the mean detrusor compliance was 17.5 cm H(2)O/ml, the mean maximum detrusor pressure was 61.9 cm H(2)O and the mean Q (max) was 13.8 ml/s in all patients. Vesicoureteral reflux was detected in 15 (23%) patients. The mean detrusor compliance and detrusor capacity significantly decreased as the daily amount of urine decreased and as the duration of chronic renal failure increased. Also, there was no significant relation between presence of diabetes mellitus and detrusor capacity and detrusor compliance. CONCLUSION Video-urodynamic studies before renal transplantation provide earlier diagnosis of lower tract abnormalities, which are likely to cause graft dysfunction.
