Quantitative and qualitative analyses of urinary L-FABP for predicting acute kidney injury after emergency laparotomy.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to explore the clinical utility of urinary L-FABP for earlier prediction of acute kidney injury (AKI) after emergency laparotomy, and to assess the clinical utility of a point-of-care (POC) kit for urinary L-FABP.

Methods: Forty-eight patients undergoing emergency laparotomy were divided into AKI and non-AKI groups by the kidney diseases: improving global outcome (KDIGO) criteria. Ten patients were included in the AKI group.

Experimental development based on mapping rule between requirements analysis model and web framework specific design model.

Model Driven Development is a promising approach to develop high quality software systems. We have proposed a method of model-driven requirements analysis using Unified Modeling Language (UML). The main feature of our method is to automatically generate a Web user interface prototype from UML requirements analysis model so that we can confirm validity of input/output data for each page and page transition on the system by directly operating the prototype.
