  1. ARDS acute respiratory distress syndrome, APACHE III acute physiology and chronic health evaluation, AKI acute kidney injury. Model 1 adjusted: age, gender, body mass index and APACHE III. Model 2 includes model 1 variables and Charlson comorbidity index. Relative risk regression with 95% confidence intervals. Relative risk (RR) estimates are comparing COVID-19 to non-COVID-19 patients 
  2. aAll AKI outcomes excluded patients on hemodialysis prior to study enrollment, which included 3 patients in the COVID-19 group and 10 patients in the non-COVID-19 group
