Primary nocturnal enuresis and left-handedness

Scand J Urol Nephrol. 2001 Jun;35(3):184-5. doi: 10.1080/003655901750291926.

Abstract

To date, no previous studies have described the association between primary nocturnal enuresis and left-handedness. In our series of enuretic patients, the prevalence of left-handedness was significantly higher than the control group. These data suggest a new correlation which needs further investigation.
