The leading order gives rigourously the T<<m behaviour, consistently with nonrelativistic Kinetic Theory.

Transport coefficients in ChPT require a modification of the standard

chiral power counting to account for O(1/) collision effects.

Unitarity is crucial to ensure the correct high-T behaviour.

As TTc ladder-type diagrams may have to be sumed, although

results suggest strong cancellations.

Kaons, chemical potentials …

At higher temperatures, the LO agrees reasonably with KT analysis and phenomenological/theoretical results.
