The majority affected were male farmers. The severity of the disease was inversely associated with BMI values and had a higher prevalence of smoking and alcohol consumption. In addition, those who consume water from household dug wells had significantly lower eGFR (p < 0.0001). A linear regression analysis revealed a significant positive association between lower eGFR and lower BMI (p < 0.001). We hypothesised that the low BMI in those with CKDu may have increased susceptibility to develop CKDu, in the presence of exposure to multiple nephrotoxins and adverse conditions.]]> Wed 07 Apr 2021 20:21:25 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:5036 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:45:39 AEDT ]]>
