The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of aging on urine natriuretic peptides in nocturia and NP. METHODS: Patients aged ≥18 years were recruited from 2019 to 2021 to complete bladder diaries for assessment of nocturia, defined as ≥2 nighttime voids, and NP, defined as nocturnal urine volume divided by 24-hour urine volume, or NP index (NPi), >0.33. Patients were excluded if they had characteristics that influence nocturia. They were divided into subgroups of <65 years old and ≥65 years old. Urine samples were analyzed for natriuretic peptide fragments (NT-proANP, NT-proBNP, and NT-proCNP). The Kruskal-Wallis H and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to compare patients stratified by status of nocturia/NP and age subgroups. Spearman’s rank order correlation was used to analyze correlations between NPi and urine natriuretic peptides. RESULTS: Compared to patients without nocturia (n=15; median ± IQR, 64.0±13.8 years), those with nocturia (n=36; 68.0±8.0 years) had significantly higher urine NT-proANP (86.0 vs 50.2 pmol/L, p=0.012) and NT-proBNP (33.1 vs 17.9 pmol/L, p=0.017), but showed no differences in NT-proCNP (11.4 vs 11.8 pmol/L, p=0.702). Patients with NP (n=30) had higher NT-proANP (96.2 vs 45.5 pmol/L, p<0.001) and NT-proBNP (34.9 vs 20.2 pmol/L, p=0.014), but showed no differences in NT-proCNP (11.8 vs 11.7, p=0.962) compared to those without NP (n=21). Compared to patients <65 years old with nocturia or NP, patients ≥65 years old with nocturia or NP had higher NT-proANP and NT-proBNP (Table 1). NPi positively correlated with NT-proANP (RS=0.416, p=0.002) and NT-proBNP (RS=0.328, p=0.019), but not with NT-proCNP (RS=-0.029, p=0.840). CONCLUSIONS: Age-related nocturia may in part be explained by natriuretic peptides, since aged patients with nocturia had greater urine NT-proANP and NT-proBNP. To understand hormonal changes in the mechanisms of age-related nocturia, future work should look to analyze these effects in controlled settings and exploit the differences to determine potential treatment pathways for nocturia management.
