All the children with NE and their mothers were invited to attend the clinic for the study. Data were collected by personal interview. A 5-day bladder diary was collected from all the children. The mothers with nocturia were given a 3-day frequency-volume chart to assess the presence of nocturnal polyuria or reduced bladder capacity. Both children and mothers underwent a bladder ultrasound scan to measure the bladder wall thickness.\n\nResults: A total of 224 mothers (aged between 23 and 45 years, average 33.3\u00b14.1 years) and their 225 children (aged between 7 and 13 years, average 8.35\u00b11.81 years) were investigated. Of the 224 mothers, 90 (40%) had nocturia, of which 55 (61%) clearly remembered that they had suffered from NE in childhood. Only 4 (11%) out of the 35 women without nocturia had NE (p&lt;0.001). Children with persistence of NE beyond 11 years were more likely to have a parent with nocturia. Children with non-monosymptomatic NE were more likely to have mothers with nocturia (odds ratio (OR) 1.7, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.2-7.1, p&lt;0.01) or overactive bladder symptoms (OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.1-15.2, p&lt;0.01).\n\nConclusion: These data suggest that there is a link between NE in childhood and nocturia in adulthood. A strong relationship was found between overactive bladder in children and overactive bladder in their mothers.\n\nCite this article as: Mangani S, Sauro F, Ponticelli A.
