Prognostic value of hepatorenal markers to predict mortality in Paraquat Poisoning: a meta-analysis and retrospective validation
• S.Cr, BUN, AST, ALT were investigated for predicting mortality in paraquat poisoning • 14 studies and 155 patients included in meta-analysis and validation cohort, respectively • Overlap in meta-analysis and retrospective validation cohort findings • S.Cr, BUN, AST were good predictors, ALT was fair predictor of mortality in meta-analysis • S.Cr and AST were good predictors, BUN and ALT were fair predictors in validation cohort
