“…Future research could build on our observed disease progression variation within endemic areas to interrogate environmental differences within these subregions, and therefore, narrow potential candidate causes of CKDu. 6 Aekplakorn, W et al in 2021 found although the prevalence of CKDu in Thailand was low overall, there remained areas with higher risk. Our study may be a model for higher-middle income country, where despite overall economic and healthcare improvement, much work needs to be done to increase the awareness and reduce the risk for CKDu in underserved regions.…”

“…Overall, 1246 (39.4%) patients had a family history of diabetes and 2306 (72.9%) had that of hypertension. The median eosinophilic granulocyte count was 0.123 ×10 9 /L (IQR, 0.0625 ×10 9 /L-0.212 ×10 9 /L). Additionally, the eosinophilic granulocyte count was higher in men than in women (2.844×10 9 /L vs. 2.368 ×10 9 /L, p < 0.001), and patients whose condition progressed to ESRD had higher eosinophilic granulocyte counts (2.904×10 9 /L vs. 2.632 ×10 9 /L, p = 0.026).…”
