Context: Delayed graft function (DGF) is an important clinical outcome following renal transplantation; therefore, it is important to be correctly diagnosed. The DGF is thought to correlate with the first 24-hour urine output (UOP1), and this clinical sign is expected to predict DGF. Objectives: This study aimed to discover whether the UOP1 correlates significantly to the DGF incidence and can be a DGF predicting factor. Results: A total of 1719 studies were obtained from the database search, and 2 studies were enrolled from other sources. Out of 1721 studies, 9 studies were recruited in this review, 5 of which reported sensitivity and specificity. Overall, nine of these studies had a low to moderate risk of bias. Almost all studies reported a significant relationship between the UOP1 and DGF. All studies agreed that the UOP1 is a sensitive predictive factor in predicting DGF. The specificity reported by the studies examined in this review varied greatly. The use of optimum cut-off in each study is considered to be the cause of this variability. Conclusions: The UOP1 is significantly related to the incidence of DGF and is a proper parameter for the prediction of DGF events.
