Abstract
Aim: Chronic kidney disease of uncertain aetiology (CKDu) is an emerging health concern in tropical farming communities. The role of occupational heat exposure as a potential driver of CKDu remains debated. Our study examines occupational heat exposure and kidney health in three occupational groups in Sri Lanka. Methodology: We recruited participants from three occupational groups from three climatic zones; fisherfolk from the dry and intermediate zones (N = 225), paddy farmers from the intermediate zone (N = 180) and tea plantation workers from the wet zone (N = 70). Serum creatinine, cystati
