Do you get up frequently to pee at night? Well, it's high time that you consult a doctor, for a new study has revealed that nighttime urination raises a person's mortality risk.
Researchers have carried out the study and found that people suffering from nocturne, the need to urinate at least twice during the night may have a significantly increased risk for mortality. Using data from national health system, they assessed differences in survival stratified by presence or absence of nocturne over three years. They then adjusted the models to control for age, sex, BMI, diabetes, hypertension, and history of coronary heart disease, nephropathy, alcohol consumption and use of tranquilizers, hypnotics or diuretics.
The study showed that there was a significantly increased mortality rate in elderly patients living in a Japanese assisted-living facility who suffered from nocturne relative to other residents.
