  1. All analyses compare the highest quartile to the lower three quartiles
  2. Q4—highest quartile of cystatin C with quartiles determined by ranges of cystatin C in full cohort
  3. All models adjusted for sepsis, age, sex, APACHE III, treatment arm, and LCA subphenotype. Full cohort model also adjusted for acute kidney injury (AKI) by Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) creatinine-based definition
