  1. sRAI—sepsis renal angina index; PRISM III—Pediatric Risk of Mortality III; SCr—serum creatinine; D—day; SCr > Baseline—degree of serum creatinine elevation above baseline (D1 SCr divided by Baseline SCr); AKI—acute kidney injury; KRT—kidney replacement therapy; RR—relative risk; VIS—vasoactive-inotropic score
  2. Data for categorical variables are reported as n (%) and continuous variables as median (IQR)
