Abstract
Liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) is a promising biomarker for the early prediction of acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the clinical utility of L-FABP in different populations or settings remains unclear. We present a meta-analysis of studies evaluating the performance of L-FABP in AKI prediction.
