Background: The risk factors of nocturia in older adults remain unclear. We aimed to investigate factors associated with nocturia using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data. Methods: Among 40,790 participants, 4,698 participants aged ${\geq}65$ years were included from the NHANES dataset between 2005 and 2012. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the odds ratio (OR) for nocturia. A subgroup analysis was conducted based on sex and underlying diseases. Results: In the multivariate logistic regression model, obesity (OR, 1.46; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.28-1.68), hypertension (OR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.07-1.52), and diabetes mellitus (DM) (OR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.11-1.45) were significantly associated with nocturia. These factors were associated with nocturia regardless of sex. In a subgroup of participants with hypertension, obesity (OR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.25-1.67) and DM (OR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.09-1.45) were associated with nocturia. In the additional analysis on patients with DM, nocturia was associated with obesity (OR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.06-1.67) and duration of DM (OR, 1.02; 95% CI, 1.01-1.03). Conclusion: This study demonstrated that hypertension, DM, and obesity were significantly associated with the prevalence of nocturia in older adult patients regardless of sex. In particular, obesity was associated with nocturia in every subgroup analysis.

목 적: 본 연구는 수면 무호흡증이 의심되어 수면 클리닉을 내원한 남성 환자를 대상으로 야간뇨의 유병률 및 이를 예측할 수 있는 인자를 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법: 2009년부터 2012년까지 수면무호흡증이 의심이 되어 수면 클리닉을 방문한 남성 환자를 대상으로 임상적 소견 및 수면다원검사 결과를 후향적으로 분석하였다. 배뇨 증상은 국제전립선증상점수를 기준으로 측정하였다. 임상적으로 유의한 야간뇨은 밤 동안에 2회 이상 배뇨를 하기 위해 깨는 경우로 정의하였다. 폐쇄성수면무호흡증은 무호흡-저호흡 지수가 5 이상인 경우로 정의하였다. 결 과: 전체 161명의 분석 대상자의 평균 연령은 $46.7{\pm}14.1$세였다. 이 중 27명은 단순 코골이 환자였으며 134명은 폐쇄성수면무호흡증 환자로 진단 되었다. 야간뇨는 53명의 폐쇄성수면무호흡증 환자, 8명의 단순 코골이 환자에서 관찰되었다. 전체 분석 대상환자에서 야간뇨의 유병률은 37.9%, 폐쇄성수면무호흡증 환자에서 야간뇨의 유병률은 39.6%였으나, 폐쇄성수면무호흡증의 유무에 따른 야간뇨 발생의 통계학적 차이는 없었다. 야간뇨를 호소한 환자가 야간뇨가 없는 환자보다 무호흡-저호흡 지수가 통계적으로 유의하게 더 높았다(p=0.001). 야간뇨를 동반한 폐쇄성수면무호흡증 환자는 야간뇨를 호소하지 않은 폐쇄성수면무호흡증 환자에 비하여 각성 지수가 더 높았고, 혈중 산소 포화도는 더 낮은 것으로 분석 되었다. 다중회귀분석에서 나이와 무호흡-저호흡 지수가 야간뇨의 유무를 예측할 수 있는 인자로 분석 되었으며, 나이에 따른 야간뇨의 위험도는 1.4, 무호흡-저호흡 지수에 따른 위험도는 1.02로 나타났다. 결 론: 본 연구에서 폐쇄성수면무호흡증 환자에서 야간뇨의 빈도는 높은 것으로 나타났다. 폐쇄성수면무호흡증 환자에서 야간뇨의 동반여부를 예측할 수 있는 유용한 인자는 나이와 무호흡-저호흡 지수였다.

Purpose: This prospective study was designed to investigate the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI), voided volume, post void residual volume (PVRV), daytime frequency and nocturia in women over 40 years. Methods: The sample comprised of 302 women over 40 years.The study lasted from February 2008 to November 2009. Data about daytime frequency and nocturia were gathered from 48 hour bladder diary. Further, a PVRV was assessed through a bladder ultrasonography. Data were analyzed using the t-test, Mann Whitney test, Kruskal Wallis test and multiple regression. Results: Although the prevalence of UI among the women was as high as 70.5%, the perception rate of UI was as low as 10.8%.Single voided volume of women without or with UI was 223 mL or 198 mL (p<.001), respectively; PVRV, 25.8 mL or 23.6 mL (p=.055); daytime frequency, 5.89 or 6.96 (p<.001); nocturia, 0.99 or 1.23 (p=.040). Age (${\beta}$=0.19, p=.001), single voided volume (${\beta}$=-0.16, p=.006), and nocturia (${\beta}$=0.12, p=.034) were associated with UI. Conclusion: The prevalence of UI was found to be 70.5% among the participants. The assessment of single urinary volume and nocturia through a bladder diary lends support to identifying UI for women over 40 years.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to confirm the effects of auricular acupressure therapy on insomnia and nocturia in the elderly. Methods: This study was a nonequivalent control group pre-post test design. Data collection was conducted from July 1 to August 31, 2013. Subjects were set for totally 36 people with 18 people in the experimental group and 18 people in the control group among the elderly over the age of 60 in silver town, welfare center, and senior citizen center where are located in Seoul area. For the experimental group, auricular acupressure therapy was applied two times during 5 days by fixing it to auricular reaction site with tape using Sinapis alba L. seeds. With SPSS/WIN 19.0 program, the collected data were analyzed. Results: Compared to the control group, the sleeping score and sleeping satisfaction were improved and nocturia frequency was lowered in the experimental group who applied auricular acupressure therapy. Conclusion: Auricular acupressure therapy was considered to be likely useful therapeutic method for the effects of relieving nocturia and insomnia in elderly.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of Gamigumguesingi-hwan(Jiaweijinkuishenqi-wan) against urinary frequency. Methods : Gamigumguesingi-hwan(Jiaweijinkuishenqi-wan) is known as a useful herbal medication for urinary fequency. So we treat two patients with Gamigumguesingi-hwan(Jiaweijinkuishenqi-wan) three times a day. By investigating the frequency of urine, we can get some data. Results : One patient's nocturia frequency was counted 10 times to 3 times and voided volume was increased. The other patient's nocturia frequency was counted 10 times to 3~4 times. Conclusions : Gamigumguesingi-hwan(Jiaweijinkuishenqi-wan) is effective in urinary frequency and nocturia.

Obejectives : To investigate the clinical effect of electroacupuncture and bee venom acupuncture for benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) symptoms. Methods : Among 39 outpatients who were treated at a BPH clinic, 8 were finally selected for analysis by charts-review, retrospectively. They were treated by electroacupuncture and bee venom acupuncture more than 3 times. We estimated the effectiveness of the treatments by using the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) questionnaire and checking their nocturia frequency. On the basis of these variables, we analyzed the statistical significations of symptom improvements. Results : Among 8 patients, the IPSS and nocturia frequency showed significant improvement after the final treatment compared with baseline (P = .0078, P = .0078). The IPSS significantly decreased even after the 1st treatment and also after the 2nd treatment compared with the baseline (P = .0078, P = .0078). The IPSS at post final-treatment, post 1st- and post 2nd treatment also showed significant improvement compared with IPSS at baseline in 6 severe symptomatic patients(P = .031, P = .031, P = .031). Nocturia frequency decreased after the 1st treatment compared with baseline and showed significant improvement between baseline and post 2nd treatment (P = .0078). Conclusions : In a retrospective and cross-sectional study investigating the clinical effects of electroacupuncture and bee venom acupuncture on BPH, these treatments proved to have significant therapeutic effects, particularly for various symptoms involving frequent nocturia.

경정맥 고용량 스테로이드 충격요법(IMPT)의 부작용으로는 고혈압, 동성 서맥, 심방심실 전도장애, 심방 세동, 심방 조동, 심실 빈맥 등의 부정맥, 구토, 구역질 등의 소화기 장애, 백내장, 저칼륨혈증, 그리고 감염성 질환 등이 있다. 그중, 저칼륨혈증은 IMPT를 받는 환자의 17% 정도에서 경미하게 나타날 수 있다. 저칼륨혈증이 신수질의 요농축 능력을 저하시켜 다뇨가 발생할 수 있다는 사실은 이미 알려져 있지만, IMPT후 경미한 저칼륨혈증으로 인해 심한 야간뇨과 다뇨증이 발생하였다는 보고는 별로 없다. 이에 본 저자들은 다량의 단백뇨와 혈뇨를 보이는 HSP 신염환자에게 세 차례의 IMPT 시행 후 환아에게 발생한 경미한 저칼륨혈증으로 인한 심한 야간뇨와 다뇨증의 발생을 경험하였기에 이에 보고하는 바이다.

Background: Bladder calculi greater than 10 mm should be managed via surgical treatment, such as cystolithotomy or percutaneous removal. Because risk evaluation for underlying disease must precede operation, patients are medicated with uroselective alpha blockers or analgesics until the operation occurs. However, disagreement exists about the success of these treatments. Case report: We present a case of a male patient who was hospitalized for sequelae of internal cerebral hemorrhage with complaints of nocturia and perineal discomfort. Abdominal computed tomography showed large bladder calculi. However, because of suspected pheochromocytoma, immediate surgery could not be performed, so we treated him with Korean medicine for 27 days (Daesiho-tang for 27 days and Jakyakgamcho-tang was started at 14th day of treatment, treated till 27th day.) until a cystolithotomy could be performed. Nocturia and perineal discomfort improved after 9 days, and the patient stopped taking acetaminophen. Conclusion: The administration of Daesiho-tang and Jakyakgamcho-tang to a patient with bladder calculi successfully controlled symptoms of nocturia and perineal discomfort until cystolithotomy could be performed.
