“…It is known that the internal and external urethral sphincters (EUS) are vital for urinary control. The internal urethral sphincter functions as a unit with the trigone and bladder base to store urine and is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system via the hypogastric nerve (T 10 –L 2 ), while the EUS and skeletal muscles are controlled by parasympathetic and somatic motor neurons via the pudendal nerve (S 2 –S 4 ) 18 , 19 . The EUS is comprised of inner smooth muscle surrounded by outer skeletal muscle, which contains both slow- and fast-twitch fibres, with the slow-twitch fibres being more important than the fast-twitch fibres for maintaining tonic force in the urethra.…”

To determine the prevalence of bladder and bowel dysfunction (BBD) and its relationship with delayed elimination communication (EC) in children. A cross-sectional study was carried out in kindergartens and primary schools in mainland China. A total of 10,166 children ranging from 4 to 10 years old were included. A total of 10,166 valid questionnaires were collected, and 409 children were diagnosed with BBD. The overall prevalence was 4.02% (409/10,166) and decreased with age, from 6.19% at age 4 to 1.96% at age 10. With the prolonged use of disposable diapers (DDs), the commencement of usage of EC in a child was significantly put off or delayed by parents, and the prevalence of BBD amongst these children increased (P < 0.001). The prevalence of BBD among children who stopped using DDs within the first 12 months and after more than 24 months was 2.79% and 4.38% respectively. Additionally, the prevalence among children who started EC within 12 months after birth and those who never engaged in EC was 1.36% and 15.71% respectively. Early introduction of EC and weaning of DD usage has a positive correlation with lower prevalence of BBD in children in China.

“…It is experienced by 8.4% of the adolescents in Indonesia [7], 24% of the adolescents in India [4], and 23.1% of the adolescents in Pakistan [23]. It has also been identified among 29% of children suffering from lower urinary tract dysfunction [25]. The prevalence of peer problems found among adolescents in this study is 57.6%.…”

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of emotional and behavioral problems (EBP) among adolescents (12–18 years) in Indonesia is 28.4%. These problems are related to age, sex, family economic level, father’s education, peer relationships, psychosocial skills, and family mental health status. However, factors related to EBPs among adolescents who are dealing with law cases have not been widely reported. AIM: The purpose of this study is to find out factors correlating with the EBPs among adolescents with legal problems. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional design was used in this study. Fifty-nine adolescents with legal problems who were sheltered at the Social Protection and Rehabilitation Centre for Adolescents (SPRCA) and the Guidance Institution for Children (GIC) served respondents. Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaires were used to measure the EBP among adolescents. The Pearson Product Moment and linear regressions were used to analyze the data. RESULTS: The prevalence of the EBP among adolescents with legal problems at SPRCA and GIC is 67.8%. The correlations of emotional problems, behavioral problems, hyperactivity, and peer problems with the EBP among adolescents with legal problems are 67.8%, 64.4%, 13.6%, and 57.6%, respectively. Age and psychosocial skills have an effect of 15.7% on the EBP among adolescents. CONCLUSION: Age and psychosocial skills correlate with the EBP among adolescents with legal problems at the SPRCA and GIC.

“…Children who are allowed to leave the classroom because of incontinence problems are often considered "different" or are ridiculed 38 . LUTD is also associated with a lower self-image and a lower quality of life in children 39,40 The vast majority of children with symptoms have learning difficulties in school 41 . In our study, quality of life was affected at different degrees in more than half of the obese children and nearly half of the overweight children.…”

Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) is very common in childhood. We aimed to investigate the frequency of LUTS in obese, overweight and normal children using voiding dysfunction symptom score validated for Turkish children by Akbal and et al. The children older than five-years-old who were followed in Pediatric Nutrition and Metabolism Outpatient Clinic were included. Children with a body mass index above the 95th percentile were classified as obese. The symptom score was administered face to face to each child and their mothers together. A score ≥9 was defined as lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD). A 164 children (62 obese, 52 overweight, 50 normal) were included. Symptom score was significantly higher in obese children than in overweight and normal weight children. (p=0.004, p=000, respectively). Overweight children had higher symptom score than in normal weight children (p=0.037). The frequency of daily urinary incontinence was higher in obese than overweight and normal weight children (p=0.041, p=0.000, respectively). The both obese and overweight children had higher frequencies of urgency and increased urinary frequency than in children with normal weight (p=0.002, p=0.021 for urgency, p=0.000, p=0.037 for increased urinary frequency, respectively). The frequencies of voiding postponement and constipation were higher in the obese children than those of overweight and normal weight (p=0.000, p=0.000 for voiding postponement, p=0.031, p=0.028 for constipation respectively). Obesity is a significant risk factor for LUTD. The questioning LUTS using questionnaire validated by Akbal et al in obese children can help in the early diagnosis of LUTD.
