Exclusion of low‐albumin patients confirms the predictive potential of miRNAs for postoperative liver dysfunction. Four patients with very low albumin were excluded from the analyses to achieve increased homogeneity in the exploration cohort. None of the evaluated liver function parameters were significantly different within the patients with and without LD after exclusion of these 4 patients. (A) Receiver operating characteristic analysis for the combined miRNA ratios with respect to LD. (B,C) Incidence of postoperative LD in patients stratified to our cutoffs of greater than 0.59 and greater than 0.68, respectively. Abbreviations: AUC, area under the curve; Ctrl, control; and Pred., predicted.
