摘要

We thank Professor Dharma-wardana for his constructive comments which have helped us to refine the model we proposed to conceptualize the etiology of CKDu (Jayasinghe and Zhu, 2020). At the core of his argument is that certain factors in the model have little support from existing evidence and are incomplete. CKDu (or CINAC) is now known to consist of a chronic interstitial nephritis or lysosomal tubulopathy, a picture also seen with cyclosporine or tacrolimus toxicity which are calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) as well as other toxic nephropathies e.g. lithium, lomustine and clomiphene (Vervaet et al., 2020; Haas, 2020). Expressed differently, a range of insults to the kidney lead to the same histopathological features in the kidney and its related clinical features. If so, one could argue that the combination of factors contributing to the clinic-pathological picture of CKDu in Sri Lanka may differ from those in El Salvador or elsewhere. It is for this reason that the model includes factors that may be less substantiated in Sri Lanka, but reasonable enough to include in the model based on available data or our understanding of pathogenesis of chronic interstitial nephropathies. The other reason is that complex systems follow non-linear dynamics. Therefore, an exposure may appear to be unimportant or unrelated to toxicity below a particular level, yet have a significant and disproportionate impact above the threshold (Philippe and Mansi, 1998).
