Table 9 Association between urinary cystatin C-positive subclinical AKI and adverse outcomes

From: Subclinical acute kidney injury is associated with adverse outcomes in critically ill neonates and children

Outcomes

uCysC(+)/AKI(−) vs. uCysC(−)/AKI(−)

Mortality, n

OR 12.29 (95% CI 4.92–30.70), P < 0.001

AORb 9.34 (95% CI 3.55–24.61), P < 0.001

Length of ICU staya, hours

B 0.392 (SE 0.050), P < 0.001

Bc 0.111 (SE 0.045), P = 0.015

  1. B is the unstandardized coefficient
  2. AKI acute kidney injury, AOR adjusted OR, CI confidence interval, ICU intensive care unit, OR odds ratio, SE standard error, uCysC urinary cystatin C
