The purpose of this study was to examine the effect nocturia has on next-day subjectively measured mental and physical energy and objectively measured physical activity. MethodsThis secondary analysis utilized sleep diaries over one week which measured nocturia frequency and other sleep quality indicators (wake after sleep onset, sleep quality and sleep duration) along with next-day reports of mental and physical energy. Next-day physical activity was measured with the BodyMedia Sensewear armband. ResultsSleep quality and sleep duration were associated with next-day physical and mental energy. Nocturia frequency (≥2 times per night) was associated with increased next-day sedentary activity. ConclusionThese results suggest that nocturia could negatively affect next-day physical activity in people with diabetes.
