title: Primary nocturnal enuresis and left-handedness.
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.
