UnknownAcute Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Transplantation: A Meta-Analysis.
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication following solid-organ transplantation. However, the epidemiology of AKI and mortality risk of AKI among patients undergoing cardiac transplantation is not uniformly described. We conducted this study to assess the incidence of AKI and mo...
