Al-Asadi JN, Radhi AM, Jumaa DS, Hassan MK. The Role of Hyposthenuria in Enuresis Among Paediatric Patients With Sickle Cell Disease. Sultan Qaboos Univ Med J 2023; 23:206-211. [PMID: 37377834 PMCID: PMC10292602 DOI: 10.18295/squmj.9.2022.056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 08/01/2022] [Accepted: 08/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives Enuresis is common among children with sickle cell disease (SCD). Many risk factors have been postulated, but its relation to hyposthenuria is debatable. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of enuresis in children with SCD in Basrah, Iraq, and to examine its relation with hyposthenuria. Methods A cross-sectional epidemiological study was performed on children with SCD who met the inclusion criteria at the Basrah Center for Hereditary Blood Diseases from December 2020 to May 2021. A questionnaire was used to collect relevant data. Blood samples were tested for haemoglobin genotype, certain blood indices and serum haemoglobin. Urine was tested for albumin and creatinine, and the specific gravity was measured using urine dipsticks. The relationships between enuresis and various sociodemographic and clinical variables were assessed. Binary logistic regression analysis was done to examine the independent risk factors of enuresis. Results A total of 161 out of 200 eligible children were included in this study (response rate: 80.5%). The majority of participants (60.9%) were males. The mean age of the participants was 10.9 ± 2.9 years. Enuresis was reported in 50 (31.1%) patients. The independent risk factors for enuresis included family history of enuresis (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 5.94, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.54-13.89; P <0.001), hyposthenuria (OR = 3.76, 95% CI: 1.25-11.30; P = 0.018) and sleep disorders (OR = 2.90, 95% CI: 1.19-7.06; P = 0.019. Conclusion Enuresis is common among children with SCD in Basrah, Iraq. Hyposthenuria was significantly associated with enuresis. Family history of enuresis and sleep disorders were also found to be significantly related to enuresis.

Enuresis and overactive bladder in sickle cell patients: a narrative review of the literature. World J Urol 2023; 41:953-962. [PMID: 36662241 DOI: 10.1007/s00345-023-04288-0] [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: 11/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this review is to clarify the prevalence, pathophysiology and clinical presentation of enuresis and overactive bladder in sickle cell patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This narrative review of the literature was conducted in March 2022 by running a search in PubMed, Embase, Scopus and Cochrane databases without publication date limitation, using the following keywords: enuresis or nocturia or overactive bladder or urinary incontinence or bedwetting and sickle cell. RESULTS Eight cross-sectional studies were included, six of which had a non-sickle cell control population. The prevalence of enuresis in children and adolescents with sickle cell disease ranged from 20.3 to 49.4%. It decreased with age to 2.9% in adult sickle cell patients. Enuresis in sickle cell patients has been attributed to several causes, including lack of urine concentration with nocturnal polyuria, reduced bladder capacity, nocturnal bladder hyperactivity, sleep and/or respiratory disorders are likely causes of enuresis in sickle cell patients. The prevalence of overactive bladder is three times higher in sickle cell patients than in control groups. The latter is also observed three times more frequently in men who have had prior episodes of priapism. CONCLUSION Enuresis and overactive bladder are common in sickle cell patients. Several mechanisms have been described to try to explain enuresis in sickle cell patients but overactive bladder seems to play a major role. Studies evaluating the efficacy of certain experimentally validated treatments must be carried out to improve the management of these complications which affect the quality of life of sickle cell patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Evidence indicates an increase in the prevalence of enuresis in individuals with sickle cell disease. The present study aims to evaluate the prevalence and impact of enuresis on quality of life in individuals with sickle cell disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS This cross-sectional study evaluated individuals with sickle cell disease followed at a reference clinic, using a questionnaire designed to evaluate the age of complete toilet training, the presence of enuresis and lower urinary tract, and the impact on quality of life of these individuals. RESULTS Fifty children presenting SCD (52% females, mean age ten years) were included in the study. Of those, 34% (17/50) presented as HbSC, 56% with HbSS (28/50), 2% Sα-thalassemia (1/5) and 8% the type of SCD was not determined. The prevalence of enuresis was 42% (21/50), affecting 75% of subjects at fi ve years and about 15% of adolescents at 15 years of age. Enuresis was classifi ed as monosymptomatic in 33.3% (7/21) and nonmonosymptomatic in 66.6% (14/21) of the cases, being primary in all subjects. Nocturia was identifi ed in 24% (12/50), urgency in 20% (10/50) and daytime incontinence 10% (5/50) of the individuals. Enuresis had a signifi cant impact on the quality of life of 67% of the individuals. CONCLUSION Enuresis was highly prevalent among children with SCD, and continues to be prevalent throughout early adulthood, being more common in males. Primary nonmonosymptomatic enuresis was the most common type, and 2/3 of the study population had a low quality of life.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Pain Medication Questionnaire (PMQ) assesses the risk of opioid abuse in people with non-oncological chronic pain. METHODS This is a methodological study conducted at a hemotherapy centre in Recife, Pernambuco state, Brazil. A Cross-cultural adaptation was carried out by a committee of nine specialists, and we applied the PMQ to a pre-final sample of 40 individuals with sickle cell anemia, in addition to a sociodemographic and clinical questionnaire. RESULTS The mean agreement indexes for PMQ equivalences were the following: semantic (0.996), idiomatic (0.970), experiential (0.991), conceptual (0.953), language clarity (0.991), practical relevance (0.906), and theoretical relevance (0.945). Assessment of the PMQ showed that 50% of participants obtained a score equivalent to medium risk of opioid abuse. Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the adapted PMQ instrument was 0.705, ranging from 0.641 to 0.736 among its items. CONCLUSION The cross-cultural adaptation of the Pain Medication Questionnaire was satisfactory and easy to apply in the Brazilian population. It is clinically relevant, contributing professional practice and enlightening patients with sickle cell anemia on their behavioral dynamics with respect to opioid consumption. It will also contribute to teaching and research, because it is a useful tool for investigating the risk of abusive behavior in people with chronic pain.

Enuresis in children and adolescents with sickle cell anaemia is more frequent and substantially different from the general population. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0201860. [PMID: 30096167 PMCID: PMC6086414 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0201860] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2018] [Accepted: 07/23/2018] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background No large studies have examined the prevalence of enuresis, its various forms and risk factors in children with sickle cell anaemia (SCA) in Sub-Saharan Africa using standardised definitions. We determined age and gender-specific prevalence of enuresis and compared the nature of enuresis in children with and without SCA. We also identified predictors of enuresis in children with SCA. Methods Caregivers of children with SCA attending a tertiary centre haematology clinic in Nigeria were interviewed using a questionnaire. In addition, a separate questionnaire was completed for every sibling aged 5–17 years whose haemoglobin genotype was known. Enuresis and its various forms were defined using the definitions of the International Children’s Continence Society. Results The study involved 243 children with SCA and 243 controls matched for age and sex. The mean age of the study cohort was 9.9 (3.4). Females made up 45.7% of the cohorts. The prevalence of enuresis was 49.4% and 29.6% in children with and without SCA, respectively (p = 0.009). In both groups, the prevalence of enuresis declined with age but remained five times higher at 25% in children with SCA aged 14–17 years compared with controls. Also, children with SCA and enuresis were older, more likely to have non-monosymptomatic enuresis and wet at least three nights per week than controls. Independent predictors of enuresis in children with SCA were a family history of enuresis and young age. Conclusion Children with SCA had more frequent and more severe enuresis which persisted to late adolescence than age and sex-matched controls. These features indicate a subset of enuresis that is difficult to treat in the general population. Young age and enuresis in a family member define a subset of children with SCA more likely to have enuresis. Healthcare workers need to discuss enuresis with parents of children with SCA and offer referral to continence services.

Abstract
This review focuses key advances in different pediatric fields that were published in Italian Journal of Pediatrics and in international journals in 2015. Weaning studies continue to show promise for preventing food allergy. New diagnostic tools are available for identifying the allergic origin of allergic-like symptoms. Advances have been reported in obesity, short stature and autoimmune endocrine disorders. New molecules are offered to reduce weight gain and insulin-resistance in obese children. Regional investigations may provide suggestions for preventing short stature. Epidemiological studies have evidenced the high incidence of Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis in patients with Down syndrome. Documentation of novel risk factors for celiac disease are of use to develop strategies for prevention in the population at-risk. Diagnostic criteria for non-celiac gluten sensitivity have been reported. Negative effect on nervous system development of the supernumerary X chromosome in Klinefelter syndrome has emerged. Improvements have been made in understanding rare diseases such as Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome. Eltrombopag is an effective therapy for immune trombocytopenia. Children with sickle-cell anemia are at risk for nocturnal enuresis. Invasive diseases caused by Streptococcus pyogenes are still common despite of vaccination. No difference in frequency of antibiotic prescriptions for acute otitis media between before the publication of the national guideline and after has been found. The importance of timing of iron administration in low birth weight infants, the effect of probiotics for preventing necrotising enterocolitis and perspectives for managing jaundice and cholestasis in neonates have been highlighted. New strategies have been developed to reduce the risk for relapse in nephrotic syndrome including prednisolone during upper respiratory infection. Insights into the pathophysiology of cerebral palsy, arterial ischemic stroke and acute encephalitis may drive advances in treatment. Recommendations on breastfeeding and complementary feeding have been updated. Novel treatments for rhabdomyosarcoma should be considered for paediatric patients. Control of risk factors for bronchiolitis and administration of pavilizumab for preventing respiratory syncytial virus infection may reduce hospitalization. Identification of risk factors for hospitalization in children with wheezing can improve the management of this disease. Deletions or mutations in genes encoding proteins for surfactant function may cause diffuse lung disease.
