Occupational risks associated with chronic kidney disease of non-traditional origin (CKDnt) in Brazil: it is time to dig deeper into a neglected problem
J Bras Nefrol. 2024 Apr 5;46(3):e20230123. doi: 10.1590/2175-8239-JBN-2023-0123en. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTIn the past decades, an epidemic of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been associated with environmental and occupational factors (heat stress from high workloads in hot temperatures and exposure to chemicals, such as pesticides and metals), which has been termed CKD of non-traditional origin (CKDnt).
