Article Synopsis
- Liver transplantation can be a treatment for severe liver diseases and liver cancer, but kidney function post-surgery is crucial for patient survival.
- Researchers studied 87 patients to see how preoperative serum uric acid (SUA) levels could predict early kidney injuries after liver transplantation.
- The findings showed that low SUA levels were linked to a higher risk of acute kidney injury shortly after surgery, indicating that monitoring SUA could help identify patients at greater risk.
