A nomogram for predicting acute kidney injury following hepatectomy: A propensity score matching analysis

J Clin AnesthPublished Retrospective case-control study

Authors' conclusion

Intraoperative parameters can be used to predict the probability of postoperative AKI. Although AKI increases the length of stay, it may not increase in-hospital mortality. LCVP time was not confirmed to be a risk factor for AKI.
