Nocturia has no impact on depression severity in patients suffering from depression but correlates with sleep quality.

CONCLUSIONS: Our analysis showed no impact of nocturia on illness severity in patients suffering from depression. However, we demonstrated correlation between nocturia and sleep quality in depressed individuals. Further studies with a larger number of patients are needed to validate the obtained results.
