a In this meta-analysis, all included studies were RCTs; 5 RCTs included ICU patients, 5 cardiac surgery, 3 vascular surgery, 2 liver and 1 renal transplantationb In this meta-analysis, 4/13 studies including 386/1059 patients were non-randomised (case control, propensity matched)c The included RCTs in the meta-analysis of Gilles et al. differ from those in the meta-analysis of Zangrillo et al.. Gilles at al. also included a RCT in patients with a solitary kidney undergoing partial nephrectomy and in patients undergoing liver transplantation , but did not include a RCT in critically ill patient with early acute tubular necrosis and a RCT in cardiac surgery comparing fenoldopam to dopexamine
