  1. *Variables with a P value <0.1 (shown in Table 2) were entered into the stepwise multivariate linear regression analysis. Continuous variables were log-transformed
  2. MODS multi-organ dysfunction syndrome, MV mechanical ventilation, N/A not applicable
  3. aIllness severity was assessed by the score for neonatal acute physiology in critically ill neonates and the pediatric risk of mortality III score in critically ill children
  4. bDeveloped during the first week after ICU admission
  5. cAdministered or developed during ICU stay
