“…Alguns fatores, já descritos, podem predispor a criança a desenvolver a enurese, como idade menor, história familiar positiva para enurese, baixa escolaridade dos pais, baixa renda familiar, pais desempregados e um grande número de pessoas morando com o paciente 4,17 . No presente estudo, foi incluído inicialmente o registro da renda familiar durante a entrevista, mas esse dado não foi coletado de maneira confiável o suficiente para permitir análise estatística e identificar implicações epidemiológicas de uma possível relação entre a punição e a renda familiar.…”

Objective: To describe the frequency of domestic violence against Brazilian children and adolescents due to episodes of enuresis, as well as associated risk factors. Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out with 149 patients aged between 6 and 18 years who received the diagnosis of primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis. A semi-structured interview was done with the patients and their guardians to collect information about the characteristics of domestic violence and abusers. In addition, a playful activity was performed by the patients. Abuse was characterized as verbal aggression, physical aggression without physical contact, and physical aggression with physical contact.Results: Eighty-nine percent (n = 132) of the patients suffered abuse due to episodes of urine leakage. All cases were characterized by verbal punishment associated or not with other types of aggression. Physical punishment without physical contact occurred in 50.8% of the cases, while physical punishment with physical contact accounted for 48.5% of the cases. The main abuser was the mother (87.9%). One patient suffered an intentional severe genital injury, and reconstructive surgery was necessary. There was a significant correlation (p = 0.043, r = -0.768) between the abuser's educational level and punishment severity. Conclusions:Punishment rates due to episodes of urine leakage are alarming. Children and adolescents with enuresis who live with low-educated people can be considered a population at risk of suffering domestic violence.

ResumoObjetivo: Descrever a frequência da violência doméstica praticada contra crianças e adolescentes brasileiros devido ao episódio enurético e os fatores de risco associados a ela.Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo transversal envolvendo 149 pacientes com idades de entre 6 e 18 anos, diagnosticados com enurese noturna monossintomática primária. Durante uma entrevista semiestruturada com o paciente e seu responsável legal, foram obtidas informações sobre as características da violência doméstica e o agressor, sendo adicionada uma atividade lúdica para o paciente. A agressão foi classificada em verbal, física sem contato, ou física com contato.Resultados: Dos pacientes entrevistados, 89% (n = 132) sofreram algum tipo de agressão devido ao episódio enurético. Todos os casos apresentaram punição verbal associada ou não a outro tipo de agressão. Punição física sem contato ocorreu em 50,8% dos casos, e com contato, em 48,5%. O principal agressor foi a mãe (87,9%). Em um caso, houve lesão genital grave que necessitou de cirurgia reconstrutora. Houve uma correlação significativa (p = 0,043, r = -0,768) entre os anos de estudo dos responsáveis e a gravidade da punição. Conclusões:Os índices de punição em pacientes com enurese noturna monossintomática primária são alarmantes. Crianças e adolescentes enuréticos que convivem no âmbito doméstico com pessoas com poucos anos de estudo podem ser considerados popul...

“…Due to differences in education, income, and cultural practices, the frequency of medical consultation for NE varies greatly among countries, ranging from 6.1% to 36.0% [5,10,13,17,19]. In our study, only 20.5% of NE cases received professional treatments from pediatricians.…”

“…According to the presence of daytime lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) of bladder dysfunction, non-monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (NMNE) (LUTS present) and monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE) (LUTS not present) are differentiated. Estimates of NE prevalence have ranged from 4.5% to 28.6% in different countries [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9], likely reflecting variation in subject age, study inclusion criteria, genetic heterogeneity among populations, cultural factors, and educational levels. Generally lower incidences were reported in China, from 3.5% to 5.5% [6,10,11].…”

ABS tRACtAim: In this study, we aimed to investigate the factors associated with monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE), as well as the sociodemographic characteristics and treatment modalities of children diagnosed with MNE. Metarials and Methods: Data were recorded on age, gender, frequency of nocturnal bedwetting, diurnal enuresis history, constipation, encopresis, history of urinary tract infection, number of siblings, familial history of enuresis, sleep habits, school performance status, income level of the family, education level of the parents, and treatment methods. Results: A total of 60 patients participated in the study; 36 (60%) were male and 24 (40%) were female. The mean age of the patients was 8.9±2.8 years. The average number of bedwetting days per week was 4.8±2.5 days. The average number of siblings was 4.2±2.4. Thirty-four (56.7%) patients had a history of deep sleep. In 95% of cases, patients had a family history of enuresis. Of patients in the study, 81.7% were from low-income families and 65% of the mothers were educated to primary school level or less. The treatment modalities applied to these patients were Desmopressin (11.7%), Imipramine (1.7%), and fluid restriction (13.3%). Twenty-five (41.7%) mothers thought that enuresis would decrease with advancing age, whereas 11 (18.3%) mothers worried that this condition may be permanent. Twentynine (48.3%) mothers believed that the medications would have an infertility effect on the children. Only five (8.3%) mothers had information about the alarm treatment. Conclusion: Although MNE is a common problem in childhood which leads to behavioral problems and decreased school performance, we observed a very low rate of MNE-related applications to the clinics. Considering the socio-demographic characteristics of these families, we believe there should be greater efforts to raise awareness of enuresis, its potential to lead to future problems and that it is a problem that should be treated. Key Words: Childhood, monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis, related factors, treatment Amaç: Bu çalışmada monosemptomatik enürezis noktürna (MEN) tanısı alan çocuklarda MEN ile ilişkili faktörlerin değerlendirilmesi, sosyo-demografik özelliklerin ve uygulanan tedavi yöntemlerinin incelenmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Olguların yaş, cinsiyet, gece yatak ıslatma sıklıkları, gündüz idrar kaçırma öyküsü, kabızlık, kaka kaçırma, idrar yolu enfeksiyonu öyküsü, kardeş sayısı, aile bireylerinde enürezis öyküsü, uyku alışkanlıkları, okul başarı durumu, ailenin gelir düzeyi, ebeveynlerin eğitim düzeyi ve uygulanan tedavi yöntemleri kaydedildi. Bulgular: Çalışmaya alınan 60 hastanın 36'sı (%60) erkek, 24'ü (%40) kız idi. Hastaların yaş ortalaması 8,9±2,8 yıl idi. Haftada ortalama yatak ıslatma gün sayısı 4,8±2,5 gün idi. Ortalama kardeş sayısı 4,2±2,4 idi. Otuz dört (%56,7) hastada derin uyku öyküsü vardı. Ailede enürezis öyküsü %95 oranında mevcut idi. Hastaların %81,7'sinin düşük gelir düzeyli aile bireyleri olduğu ve annelerin %65'inin ilkokul ya da daha az eğitim düz...
