The majority affected were male farmers. The severity of the disease was inversely associated with BMI values and had a higher prevalence of smoking and alcohol consumption. In addition, those who consume water from household dug wells had significantly lower eGFR (p < 0.0001). A linear regression analysis revealed a significant positive association between lower eGFR and lower BMI (p < 0.001). We hypothesised that the low BMI in those with CKDu may have increased susceptibility to develop CKDu, in the presence of exposure to multiple nephrotoxins and adverse conditions.]]> Wed 07 Apr 2021 20:21:25 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38234 Tue 17 Aug 2021 08:42:53 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55146 Tue 16 Apr 2024 15:15:23 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34129 −1), mixed treatment with CM and HU under (d) iso-phosphorus and (e) iso-nitrogenous condition and (f) control. Monitoring of water quality and biological parameters revealed that total fish yield was the highest in CM (621.5 g tank⁻¹) followed by mixed treatments under iso-nitrogenous (428 g tank⁻¹) and iso-phosphorus (333 g tank⁻¹) conditions, aerated HU (321 g tank⁻¹) and HU (319 g tank⁻¹). The gross primary productivity (GPP) in HU was satisfactory (601.8 mg C m⁻² h⁻¹) and superior to all but CM treatment. The abundance of heterotrophic bacteria (HB) was highest in CM and lowest in HU. Both GPP and HB population were correlated positively with fish yield per tank. Although pH in all treatments remained high (pH 8.4–8.9), no ammonia toxicity was observed. No E. coli infestation in any fish muscle was encountered. The concentrations of cadmium and lead in fish muscle were within respective safe level. The study established that high fertilizer potential of HU could be exploited as an alternative organic fertilizer or as a candidate to be blended with cattle manure.]]> Tue 12 Feb 2019 13:19:05 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49223 Sun 07 May 2023 09:44:09 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12271 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:10:13 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48272 Mon 13 Mar 2023 18:44:54 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34652 max) and SSA. The Q_max value also showed a moderately strong relationship (R² = 0.55, p < 0.05) with zeta potential (at pH 7). Q_max was only poorly correlated with CEC and native OC content. Therefore, along with SSA, the surface charge and functional groups of SCFs played the key role in determining the adsorption affinity and hence retention of DOC in soils.]]> Mon 08 Apr 2019 13:03:30 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38772 Fri 28 Jan 2022 13:59:06 AEDT ]]>
