Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Previous investigations on chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology characterized by tubulointerstitial damages (CKDu) in the North Central Region (NCR) of Sri Lanka have supported the involvement of social, environmental and genetic factors in its pathogenesis. METHODS: We conducted a social-environmental-and-genetic epidemiology study on a male population in NCR to investigate the genetic and...
