Hyperoncotic colloids and acute kidney injury: a meta-analysis of randomized trials.

abstract：:A crucial determinant for the success of intensive insulin therapy in critically ill patients is the frequent and accurate measurement of blood glucose values with immediate feedback of results. In general, therefore, this is achieved by point-of-care testing, raising the question of the best way of monitoring blood g...
