Serum predictors of native liver survival post‐Kasai: Systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives After hepatoportoenterostomy (HPE), a minority of biliary atresia (BA) patients reach adolescence without liver transplantation. Several serum markers have been suggested to better predict post‐HPE outcomes in BA patients. We aimed to identify serum predictors of native liver survival (NLS) in post‐HPE BA patients.
