Abstract
ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the risk factors of extraordinary daytime only urinary frequency (EDOUF) and propose a form of clinical treatment.MethodsCorrelation and binary logistic regression analyses were carried out on the medical records of children with EDOUF, including their history of eczema, urticaria, allergic rhinitis or allergic cough, and pruritus (eye rubbing, etc.).ResultsA total of 266 children with EDOUF, 127 boys and 139 girls, were enrolled in the present study; their average age was 5.60 ± 2.04 years. Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that the risk factors of EDOUF in children were eczema (odds ratio [OR] = 8.393), allergic rhinitis or allergic cough (OR = 4.459), pruritus (eye rubbing, etc.; OR = 3.879), and elevated total serum IgE level (OR = 7.927). The efficacy rate of oral administration of antihistamine (desloratadine) was 89.1%.ConclusionSystemic or local allergic conditions, such as eczema, allergic rhinitis or allergic cough, and pruritus (including eye rubbing), and elevated total serum IgE level, are risk factors for the occurrence of EDOUF in children. The oral administration of antihistamine (desloratadine) can alleviate the symptoms.
