Insights
Childhood enuresis risk factors include stubborn personality, nocturnal polyuria, sleep-wake disorders, and bladder dysfunction. Identifying these is key for effective enuresis management.
Area of Science:
- Pediatrics
- Urology
- Psychology
Background:
- Childhood enuresis is a common condition affecting many children.
- Identifying specific risk factors is crucial for effective management and treatment.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify risk factors associated with childhood enuresis.
- To understand the contributing elements to enuresis in children aged 6-13.
Main Methods:
- Retrospective analysis of 146 children diagnosed with enuresis.
- Categorization into mild and severe enuresis groups based on frequency.
- Logistic regression analysis to determine significant risk factors.
Main Results:
- Stubborn personality, nocturnal polyuria, sleep-wake disorders, and bladder dysfunction were identified as significant risk factors.
- These factors were found to increase the risk of enuresis (P < 0.05).
Conclusions:
- Stubborn personality, nocturnal polyuria, sleep-wake disorders, and bladder dysfunction are independent risk factors for childhood enuresis.
- Understanding these factors is vital for developing targeted interventions.
- Further research into the interrelationships of these factors can refine treatment strategies.
Objective:
To identify risk factors associated with childhood enuresis.
Methods:
We conducted a retrospective analysis of 146 children aged 6 to 13 years diagnosed with enuresis at Anhui Province Children's Hospital between June 2020 and June 2023. Children were categorized based on bedwetting frequency: those with less frequent episodes (once a week to twice a month) were placed in the mild group (60 cases), and those with frequent episodes (two or more times per week) were placed in the severe group (86 cases). We compared demographic data, family histories, and personal characteristics between the groups and performed logistic regression to determine significant risk factors.
Results:
The analysis revealed that a stubborn personality, nocturnal polyuria, sleep-wake disorders, and bladder dysfunction significantly increased the risk of enuresis (P < 0.05). These findings underscore the importance of a holistic approach in evaluating psychological aspects, nocturnal urination patterns, sleep quality, and bladder health in managing enuresis.
Conclusion:
The study identifies stubborn personality, nocturnal polyuria, sleep-wake disorders, and bladder dysfunction as independent risk factors for childhood enuresis. Understanding these factors is crucial for developing targeted interventions that can enhance the management and outcomes of enuresis. Future research should explore the interrelationships among these factors to refine preventive and therapeutic strategies for early childhood enuresis.
