  2. 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
  3. bAdministered or developed during ICU stay
  4. cDeveloped during the first week after ICU admission. Severe AKI was defined as Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) stages 2 and 3
  5. dOdds ratio represents the increase in risk per 10,000 ng/mg increase in uCysC/uCr
  6. eAfter adjustment for illness severity
  7. fAfter adjustment for body weight
  8. gAfter adjustment for body weight and illness severity
  9. hAfter adjustment for body weight, illness severity, MV, and AKI stage
