“…However, among pre-school and first grade children, the higher frequencies of sleep-bruxism (e.g., more than four times a week) were congruent with values previously reported (e.g., [1,[8][9][10]). Notably, sleep-bruxism distinction and frequency is not equivalently described in all studies; thus, many epidemiological studies on sleep bruxism are not fully comparable.…”

“…Sleep bruxism may serve as a behavioral indicator, or a sentinel marker, for possible adverse health conditions among children and may be a signal that early health care intervention is needed. For example, a recent report indicated that children who brux are 2.4 more likely to experience migraines than children who do not brux [9]. Additionally, as health problems increased, neurocognitive performance decreased.…”

“…The reported prevalence of sleepbruxism is highest during childhood, decreases across the life span and can resolve spontaneously [7]. The prevalence of childhood sleep-bruxism varies from 14% to 17% [1], 5-20% [8], 22% [9], 28-30% [10], and 38% [11]; however, prevalence rates may be underestimates since less common occurrences may not come to medical attention [12]. The reported prevalence of child sleep-bruxism ranges widely; large community-based samples of children could help clarify prevalence rates.…”

Objectives-The aims for this study were to determine the prevalence of sleep-bruxism among young children, explore child behavior problems that may be associated with sleep-bruxism, and identify relations among sleep-bruxism, health problems, and neurocognitive performance.Methods-The current study was a retrospective analysis of parent report surveys, and behavioral and neurocognitive assessments. Parents of 1953 preschool and 2888 first grade children indicated their child's frequency of bruxism during sleep. A subsample of preschool children (n = 249) had additional behavioral, as well as neurocognitive assessments. Among the subsample, parents also reported on their child's health, and completed the Child Behavioral Checklist; children were administered the Differential Ability Scales, and Pre-Reading Abilities subtests of the Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment.Results-36.8% of preschoolers and 49.6% of first graders were reported to brux ≥ 1 time per week. Among the preschool subsample, bruxing was independently associated with increased internalizing behaviors (β = .17). Bruxism was also associated with increased health problems (β = .19), and increased health problems were associated with decreased neurocognitive performance (β = .22).Conclusions-The prevalence of sleep-bruxism was high. A dynamic and potentially clinically relevant relation exists among sleep-bruxism, internalizing behaviors, health, and neurocognition. Pediatric sleep-bruxism may serve as a sentinel marker for possible adverse health conditions, and signal a need for early intervention. These results support the need for an interdisciplinary approach to pediatric sleep medicine, dentistry, and psychology.

“…12 Pathophysiological findings suggest another main factor, which is the patient's inability to wake up in response to signals from a full bladder. 13 Therefore, recent studies have looked more closely at the involvement of the central nervous system in the cause of PNE. The region of interest has been hypothesized to lie within a tiny area surrounding the vicinity of the pontine micturation center.…”

A AB BS ST TR RA AC CT T O Ob bj je ec ct ti iv ve e: : Primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE) is a developmental disorder. It is characterized by involuntary micturating over 5 years of age. The main etiopathogenetic causes are genetic and physiologic factors, sleep abnormalities, autonomic nervous system dysfunction and developmental delay. PNE was reported to be related to functional immaturity of the central nervous system. The control centers for bladder function and micturation are localized at pons. However, studies investigating the pons regarding this function are few. In this study, brainstem functions were evaluated with brainstem auditory-evoked potential (BAEP) in children with PNE. M Ma at te er ri ia al l a an nd d M Me et th ho od ds s: : Forty children [18 girls and 22 boys; mean age 7.8±2.9 years (range 5.5-10.5)] with PNE (Group I) and 40 healthy children [18 girls, 22 boys, mean age 7.5±3.2 years (range 5.5-10)] (Group II), were enrolled in this study. The cases with mental retardation, neurological disorders, metabolic diseases, psychiatric abnormality (attention deficit/hyperactivity syndrome), and urinary tract disorders were excluded. R Re es su ul lt ts s: : Though statistically insignificant, the peak and interpeak latency values in Group I were longer than in Group II. C Co on nc cl lu us si io on n: : PNE is a common entity of childhood with an incompletely defined pathogenesis. Maturational delay of the central nervous system has recently been noticed in the etiology. However, due to the controversial results, we suggest that further studies with larger sample sizes and new methods are required.K Ke ey y W Wo or rd ds s: : Nocturnal enuresis; etiology; evoked potentials, auditory, brain stem Ö ÖZ ZE ET T A Am ma aç ç: : Primer noktürnal enürezis (PNE) gelişimsel bir bozukluktur ve 5 yaşın üzerinde istemsiz işeme ile karakterizedir. Etiyopatogenezinde genetik ve fizyolojik faktörler, uyku bozuklukları, otonom sinir sistemi fonksiyon bozukluğu ve gelişme geriliği vardır. PNE'nin santral sinir sisteminin fonksiyonel gelişmemişliği ile ilişkili göründüğü bildirilmiştir. Mesane fonksiyonu ve işeme kontrol merkezleri ponsta yerleşmiştir. Ancak, bu konuda pons ile ilgili araştırmalar azdır. Bu çalışmada, PNE'li çocukların beyin sapı fonksiyonları, beyin sapı işitsel-uyarılmış potansiyelleri (BSİP) ile değerlendirildi.

Zekâ geriliği, nörolojik bozukluklar, metabolik hastalıklar, psikiyatrik bozukluk (dikkat eksikliği/hiperaktivite sendromu) ve idrar yolu hastalıkları gibi durumları olan olgular çalışmadan dışlandı.

“…Пе-риодические синдромы -клинические феномены, встречающиеся практически исключительно в педи-атрической практике, дебют и максимальная клини-ческая экспрессия которых приходятся на различные периоды детства, в том числе на первые месяцы жизни [14,20,23]. Приводятся данные, что частота их встре-чаемости в зависимости от формы составляет от 0,04 до 4,10 % в общей педиатрической популяции [6,8,9,43]. Среди подростков, страдающих хронически-ми головными болями, в том числе мигренью, пери-одические синдромы в раннем возрасте встречаются в 6-70 % случаев [51,52].…”
