=== Sleep disorders === The inability to wake from sleep has been understood as one cause of [[nocturnal enuresis]], however studies focused on the importance of the time of night in which enuresis episodes occur have shown inconsistent results.<ref name=":5">{{cite journal | vauthors = Pedersen MJ, Rittig S, Jennum PJ, Kamperis K | title = The role of sleep in the pathophysiology of nocturnal enuresis | journal = Sleep Medicine Reviews | volume = 49 | pages = 101228 | date = February 2020 | pmid = 31790860 | doi = 10.1016/j.smrv.2019.101228 | doi-access = free }}</ref> Parents often report that their bedwetting children are very difficult to awaken from sleep, therefore research regarding enuresis has also aimed to elucidate why children with enuresis do not awaken from the sensation of a full bladder.<ref name=":5" /> Some studies have led to hypotheses that children with enuresis have altered [[hemodynamics]] during sleep (in terms of measurements of [[blood pressure]] and [[heart rate]]), [[sleep-disordered breathing]], and altered [[hypothalamus]] function leading to a lack of bladder control during sleep.<ref name=":5" />
