Brain Natriuretic Peptide for Predicting Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome Undergoing Coronary Angiography: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Figure 3

Forest plot of the sensitivity and specificity of brain natriuretic peptide for the diagnosis of contrast-induced acute kidney injury in patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing coronary angiography. The pooled SEN and SPE values were 0.73 (95% CI 0.65–0.79) and 0.79 (95% CI 0.70–0.85), respectively. SEN, sensitivity and SPE, specificity.
