Dear Editor,

We thank for the interest in our recent published article1 and the letter from Prof. Xue, et al. Our findings evidenced that viral hepatitis, warm ischemia time and serum lactate are associated with acute kidney injury (AKI) development after liver transplantation (LT). Another important finding is that AKI was associated with death and chronic kidney disease (CKD) after LT.
