*

Includes acute kidney failure and acute tubulointerstitial nephritis.

All hazard ratios are adjusted for maternal age (underlying time in Cox model), maternal birth year, parity, history of gestational hypertension, and history of shortest gestation.

Under current Danish and European data protection laws, exact numbers cannot be given because one cell contains <5 women.
