nocturnal enuresis/아르기닌

OBJECTIVE To examine the relationship between diurnal urine volume and plasma arginine vasopressin levels (AVP) in nursing home residents with nighttime urinary incontinence and a comparison group of frail but nondemented, continent geriatric board and care residents. METHODS Case

Intranasal administration of 1-deamino 8-D-arginine vasopressin (DDVAP) used for treatment of nocturnal enuresis (NE), might be expected to have various effects on the nasal mucosa, e.g. altering the clearance by the mucociliary apparatus. We evaluated two samples (brushes) of epithelial surface

The effect of desamino-D-arginine vasopressin was investigated in a double-blind study of 37 children more than 9 years old with nocturnal enuresis resistant to conventional therapy. A significant reduction of wet nights was observed but as soon as the medication was stopped the children reverted to

OBJECTIVE To determine any possible adverse effect of 1-deamino 8-D-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) spray on nasal cytology and mucociliary clearance in patients with nocturnal enuresis. METHODS Twenty-two children aged 6-16 enrolled in the study. Epithelial surface cells samples were taken from the

OBJECTIVE The aim of this group of studies was to determine the relationship between primary nocturnal enuresis and arginine-vasopressin (AVP) secretion. METHODS The first study compared the 24-hour AVP secretion profiles of an enuretic group and a control group. Blood samples were collected every

OBJECTIVE To identify the relationship between nocturnal AVP deficiency, nocturnal polyuria (NP), and low urinary osmolality in children suffering of primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (NE). METHODS The study included 50 children (28 males and 22 females) with primary monosymptomatic NE and

BACKGROUND Treatment of primary nocturnal enuresis using 1-deamino-8-D-arginine-vasopressin is based on the hypothesis that antidiuretic hormone (arginine vasopressin [AVP]) secretion is insufficient during the night. Persisting doubts about the theoretical background of this treatment and first

An update of the pathogenesis and treatment of monosymptomatic bedwetting is presented. This frequently occurring entity seems to have a multifactorial pathogenesis incorporating arousal disturbances and disturbances to the circadian rhythm of diuresis modulating hormones. It has recently been

Desmopressin is a potent antidiuretic for nocturnal enuresis with few and mostly insignificant adverse reactions. Almost 80 years ago, the antidiuretic effects of extracts of the posterior pituitary were first reported. The molecular structure of the peptide vasopressin arginine vasopressin (AVP)

Monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis, a heterogeneous condition, is frequently treated in children aged >5 years. Of the various treatment options, enuresis alarm has been widely advocated as being effective for treating nocturnal enuresis, while extracorporeal pelvic floor magnetic stimulation for

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to evaluate the use of desmopressin acetate (DDAVP) in the management of nocturnal enuresis in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI), as well as arginine vasopressin (AVP) daily production, urine output, urine osmolarity and clean intermittent catheterization

OBJECTIVE Desmopressin may be a useful treatment in some, but not all, patients with nocturnal enuresis. We have evaluated a relation between nocturnal urine output in patients with primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis and the treatment response to synthetic vasopressin. METHODS Adolescent or

Lasting cure rates in monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE), using the alarm, imipramine or desmopressin, have been quoted as 43%, 17% and 22%, respectively. The low cure rates in addition to the number of different treatments indicate insufficient knowledge of MNE. Only research on arginine

The response of desamino-D-arginine vasopressin (DDAVP) was investigated in 32 enuretic children in a double-blind clinical study. The 15 children treated with DDAVP showed a significant reduction in the incidence of bed wetting--from 18.7 +/- 6.5 to 6.5 +/- 9.2 wet nights per 30 days. In 6 children
