Mystery disease emerges in hospitals
A report has indicated the arrival of cases of a mysterious kidney disease known as "Chronic Kidney Disease of Unknown Cause" (CKDu) in some hospitals in Texas. This disease particularly affects healthy young men in their twenties and thirties who have been engaged in physically demanding jobs such as painting or road paving. The illness causes fatal kidney failure and is diagnosed in the absence of known risk factors like obesity, high blood pressure, or diabetes. It is worth noting that this disease first appeared in the 1990s in Central and South America under the name "Mesoamerican Nephropathy." Previously rare in the United States, the current cases are raising concerns about its spread.
