“…In 2004, in a cross-sectional, population-based study of children aged 3 to 9 years, the median sphincter control corresponded to 24 months, both for daytime and nighttime control. 16 In 2010, in the same town, the median for daytime control was equal to 24 months, whereas that for nighttime control was 26 months; around 50% were off diapers at 24 months, 75% at 30 months and 95% at 36 months. These findings differ from those described by Blum et al 17 for U.S. children, for whom the mean daytime sphincter control was 36.8±6.1 months.…”

“…Based on a cross-sectional study carried out in 2003 with children born between 1994 and 2000, the mean age at which daytime bladder and bowel control was achieved was 22.6 months, while, at 24 months, 97.6% of the children had daytime control and 89.9% nighttime control. 34 In Sweden, Hallgren observed that 92% of children had daytime urinary control at 4 years. Almost 50 years later, Jansson reported that 50% of the children had daytime control at 3.5 years -which also suggests an increase in the age at which control is achieved.…”
