IntroductionThere remains considerable debate as to the cause of the epidemic of Mesoamerican Nephropathy (MeN). We have previously reported early loss of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) as a surrogate for disease onset in a population-representative cohort study of young-adults at risk of disease from Northwest Nicaragua. Using a nested case-control approach we analysed urine and serum proteins surrounding this timepoint with the aim of gaining insight into the primary disease aetio...
