Introduction and Aim:Many etiological reasons are blamed for enuresis nocturna (EN). The aim of this study was to research prevalence and severity of EN among elementary school-age children and sociodemographic risk factors related to it.Materials and Methods:The study was performed in three elementary schools in Ankara, Turkey between January and May 2011. It was planned to have 2500 students of 6–14 ages in the study. The questionnaire, which consisted of questions, aiming to evaluate the EN condition of participants and their characteristics, were distributed to the parents. It was observed that 2314 participants’ questionnaires (92.56%) were in accordance with evaluation criteria.Statistical Analysis:The relation between EN and the sociodemographic factors was evaluated through Chi-square test and logistic regression analysis.Results:The mean age of 2314 participants was 9.21 ± 2.08. 48.5% (n = 1123) of the students were male and 51.5% (n = 1191) were female. While the general EN prevalence was 9.9% (n = 230); 10.7% (n = 120) for males, as 9.2% (n = 110) for females. Statistical significant difference was determined between the two groups, with EN and without EN, regarding age groups (P < 0.001), education level of parents (P < 0.001, P < 0.001), and the number of sibling (P = 0.002), income level (P < 0.001), and positive family history (P < 0.001). However, logistic regression analysis revealed that there was a significant difference only between EN and age groups (odds ratio [OR] =4.42, P < 0.001), education level of mother (OR = 2.13, P = 0.017) and family history (OR = 0.12, P < 0.001).Conclusions:As a consequence, such factors as age groups, education level of parents, positive family history could be accepted as a risk of concerning EN. It is important to perform a detailed evaluation on population, carrying risk of having EN.

“…In Nigeria, the prevalence of adenoidal hypertrophy in primary schools studied by Eziyi et al [5] was 7.7% while a private hospital based study by Chinawa et al [6] had a prevalence of 1.3%. The lower prevalence in these Nigerian studies compared to the study by Aydin et al [4] could be as a result of variation due to environmental factors and in addition, Chinawa et al [6] had data limited to a private hospital.…”

Background: Adenoidal hypertrophy is a common respiratory disease in childhood with a lethal complication of Cor-Pulmonale. There are few studies on the prevalence of adenoidal hypertrophy in children in Nigeria. The aim of the current study is to document the echocardiographic characteristics of Nigerian Children with adenoidal hypertrophy and compare the findings with those of other children in other parts of the world. Method: The study was prospective, involving subjects from three centers which were; a tertiary hospital, a private hospital and a major cardiology center. Children with clinical and radiological diagnosis of adenoidal hypertrophy had transthoracic echocardiography done by a cardiologist. Results: A total of 1,346 children had echocardiography done within the three years studied period in the centers. In all, 128 had adenoidal hypertrophy with a prevalence of 9.5%. Prevalence of pulmonary hypertension was 5.47% in subjects with adenoidal hypertrophy. More than 90% of the children with adenoidal hypertrophy had normal echocardiographic findings. Conclusion: Most Nigeria children with adenoidal hypertrophy had normal echocardiographic findings but some (5.5%) had abnormal echocardiographic findings. The prevalence of pulmonary hypertension among Nigerian Children with adenoidal hypertrophy is 5.5%. This is lower than that reported in subjects from other parts of the world.

“…Adenotonsillar hypertrophy (ATH) is seen as the most common cause. Aydın S et al (5) reported in a study they carried on 1132 children aged between five and fourteen years that there was no significant relationship between AV and PNE. In contrast to this study, Balaban M et al (6) reported in a study of 143 children in total that, ATH was observed more common in children with PNE complaints.…”

Background: The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between primary nocturnal enuresis (PNE) and upper airway obstructive pathologies such as allergic rhinitis (AR), nasal septum deviation (NSD), adenoid hypertrophy (AD) and tonsillar hypertrophy (TH). Methods: The study included 78 volunteer PNE patients (42 males, 36 females; mean age: 7.2 ± 1.6 years, range: 5.4 to 11.6 years) who applied to Pediatrics and Urology outpatient clinics of a second-stage hospital between June 1, 2018 and September 1, 2018. The control group included 72 volunteer children (34 males, 38 females; mean age: 7.6 ± 1.4 years, range: 5.1 to 12.7 years) who were admitted to the inpatient outpatient clinics of the same hospital and had no PNE complaint. All participants included in the study were applied routine physical examination, flexible fiberoptic nasopharyngoscopy and score for allergic rhinitis (SFAR) questionnaire. Brodsky scale and fiberendoscopic findings were used to classify tonsil and adenoid dimensions respectively. Results: There was no significant difference between PNE (+) and PNE (-) groups in terms of age and gender (respectively p = 0.203 and p = 0.819). Although AR and NSD were similar in both groups, the ratio of AH and TH was statistically significantly higher in the PNE (+) group (p = 0.016 and p = 0.05, respectively). Conclusion: Adenotonsillar hypertrophy must be considered in children with primary nocturnal enuresis.
