AbstractLower urinary tract symptoms are widespread in elderly men and often suggestive of benign prostatic hyperplasia (LUTS/BPH). A randomized, prospective, and open-labeled trial directly comparing the effects of tadalafil (a phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor) 5 mg once daily and tamsulosin (an α1-blocker) 0.2 mg once daily for 12 weeks in LUTS/BPH patients was conducted. Data were recorded before randomization as well as at 4, 8, and 12 weeks after medication. Fifteen patients allocated tadalafil and 20 allocated tamsulosin completed 12 weeks of medication. Total IPSS, IPSS voiding, and IPSS-QOL scores declined with medication, but there was no difference between drugs. IPSS storage scores reduced more in the tamsulosin group than tadalafil group. OABSS did not decline significantly with medication. IIEF5 was maintained in the tadalafil group, but declined in the tamsulosin group. The maximum flow rate and post-void residual urine volume did not significantly change with medication. Daytime, night-time, and 24-hour urinary frequencies as well as the mean and largest daytime, night-time, and 24-hour voiding volumes per void did not significantly change with medication. In conclusion, tamsulosin was more effective to reduce storage symptoms than tadalafil. Tadalafil had the advantage of maintaining the erectile function.

ObjectiveOur current knowledge on nocturnal enuresis (NE) in adults is scarce due to its uncommon nature. The present study was designed to investigate symptom characteristics and risk factors of NE in adult women to improve the current clinical understanding and management of this rare disease.MethodsOver a 3-year period, we enrolled 70 adult women who complained of bedwetting, with a frequency of at least once per week and a symptom duration of 3 months or longer. Patients were excluded if they had known pregnancy, current urinary tract infection, untreated malignancies, anatomical abnormalities, and irregular sleep cycle. The International Consultation on Incontinence Modular Questionnaire—female lower urinary tract symptoms and bladder diary were employed to appraise lower urinary tract symptoms and voiding behavior. Urodynamics was performed to assess the bladder function. A linear regression analysis was applied to determine potential risk factors for NE frequency.ResultsAmong the recruited subjects, comorbidities and lower urinary tract symptoms were frequently reported. On bladder diary, patients commonly presented with nocturnal polyuria (NP), reduced nocturnal voided volumes (RNVVs), or both. Urodynamics revealed multiple dysfunctions, namely, detrusor overactivity (DO), urodynamic stress incontinence (USI), reduced compliance, bladder outlet obstruction, detrusor underactivity (DU), and simultaneous DO and DU. Patients with more frequent NE (≥4/week) demonstrated markedly increased body mass index, more comorbid conditions, worse incontinence symptoms, NP or NP plus RNVVs, reduced compliance, and poorer voiding possibly owing to DU. Whereas, RNVVs alone and worse overactive bladder-related parameters were associated with milder NE. Multivariate analysis indicated that frequency/urgency quality of life, incontinence symptom, NP + RNVVs, poor flow, increased bladder sensation, USI, and simultaneous detrusor overactivity plus DU were independent risk factors for NE severity.ConclusionNE in adult women may have both urological and non-urological pathophysiology. Imbalanced circadian urine production, jeopardized continence mechanisms, overactive bladder, and DU-induced poor voiding are major factors that contribute to the pathogenesis of NE in adult women. Focused treatments on restoring these functions should be individually considered.
