2010, Neurourology and Urodynamics
AI-generated Abstract
Comparative analysis was performed among patients with nocturia, insomnia, and sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) to elucidate differences in patient characteristics. A total of 98 nocturia patients and 92 patients categorized under insomnia and SAS completed standardized questionnaires. Results showed significant demographic and health-related quality of life differences, with nocturia patients being older, predominantly male, and exhibiting distinct profiles in terms of urinary symptoms, sleep quality, and general health compared to those with insomnia or SAS. The findings suggest a clear differentiation between these patient groups, highlighting the complexity of nocturia's relationship with sleep disorders.
