The interrelation between children’s lower urinary tract symptoms with modifiable daily life habits and parental behaviors.

Parental Behavior and Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms in Primary School-Aged Children Bedwetting and combined (day and night) wetting are prevalent conditions in children that can cause distress in both the children and their parents in the primary school-age period. This study aimed to investigate the association between lower urinary tract symptoms of primary school-aged children and two specific parenting related behaviors: (1) parental availability during the child’s leisure time and (2) frequency of witnessing interparental conflict. A cross-sectional survey was conducted on children aged between 6 and 11 years. Data analyses were performed with 1101 eligible participants. Age, educational level of the mother, parental availability for the child’s leisure time, and frequency of witnessing parental conflicts were found to be significantly associated with Dysfunctional Voiding and Incontinence Symptom Scale scores.

小学学龄儿童的父母行为与下尿路症状。遗尿以及昼夜联合遗尿是儿童的常见病症，在小学学龄阶段会给儿童及其家长带来困扰。本研究旨在探讨小学学龄儿童下尿路症状与两类特定养育相关行为的关联：其一为儿童休闲时段的父母陪伴情况，其二为目睹父母间冲突的频率。本研究针对6至11岁儿童开展横断面调查，最终纳入1101名符合入组标准的受试者进行数据分析。研究结果显示，儿童年龄、母亲受教育程度、儿童休闲时段的父母陪伴情况以及目睹父母冲突的频率，均与功能异常排尿与失禁症状量表（Dysfunctional Voiding and Incontinence Symptom Scale）得分存在显著关联。
