| Research Abstract |
We hypothesized that nocturia may be associated with the incidence of MetS and conducted a 4-year longitudinal study that investigated the possible association. We collected data on 5,701 individuals who participated in a multiphasic health screening in Fukui, Japan, in 2003 (baseline) and 2007, and were 65 years and less at baseline. After excluding participants with MetS at baseline, data from 5,234 participants were subjected to analysis. The participants' mean age was 55.6 years at baseline. A total of 210 participants (4%) developed MetS during the four-year study period. After adjusting for age and gender, a significant association was observed between the incidence of MetS and nocturia (experienced "sometimes" or "always"). For the incidence of MetS, the multivariate odds ratios (95% CI) of "sometimes" and "always" nocturia were 2.3 (1.1-4.7) and 2.9 (1.1-7.9), respectively. The results of our epidemiological study indicate that nocturia can be a precursor of MetS.
