LCN2 and acute kidney injury: Thirty-seven studies focused on early onset AKI (AKI developed within 48 h), and the diagnostic accuracy was numerically highest for L-FABP (DOR 33.1, 95% CI 11.5–95.1), serum NGAL (DOR 21.4, 95% CI 10.5–43.7), L-FABP/Cr (DOR 21.4, 95% CI 2.9–158.8), and urinary NGAL (DOR 15.4, 95% CI 7.2–32.9) (Additional file 1: Table S4).
