In a primary care setting 698 children aged 5-18 years were examined and 27 in 21 families were found to have enuresis nocturna. The control group included 127 children in 79 families who did not have enuresis. 13 (48.1%) children with enuresis, but only 8 (6.3%) control children, were from severe dysfunctional families. Such families are characterized by chronic and persistent conflicts, absence of closeness and lack of trust between parents and children, and lack of parental support (p < 0.001). Results were similar for boys and girls. The rate of parents with 8 or fewer years of education was significantly higher among children with enuresis as compared to controls, both with regard to fathers (p = 0.05) and mothers (p < 0.01). These findings indicate that severe dysfunctional families do not support maturation and personality development of their members. Early discovery of severe dysfunctional families promotes early intervention and effective treatment of enuresis in childhood.
在一次初级保健检查中，对698名5至18岁的儿童进行了检查，发现21个家庭中的27名儿童患有夜尿症。对照组包括79个家庭中的127名没有夜尿症的儿童。患有夜尿症的儿童中有13名（48.1%）来自严重功能失调的家庭，而对照组儿童中只有8名（6.3%）来自这类家庭。这类家庭的特点是存在长期持续的冲突、父母与子女之间缺乏亲密感和信任，以及缺乏父母的支持（p < 0.001）。男孩和女孩的结果相似。与对照组相比，夜尿症儿童中父母受教育年限在8年及以下的比例在父亲方面（p = 0.05）和母亲方面（p < 0.01）都显著更高。这些发现表明，严重功能失调的家庭不利于其成员的成熟和个性发展。早期发现严重功能失调的家庭有助于对儿童期夜尿症进行早期干预和有效治疗。
