AKI, acute kidney injury; CI, confidence interval; Cr, creatinine; IDI, integrated discrimination improvement; KIM-1, kidney injury molecule 1; NGAL, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin; NRI, net reclassification improvement; POD, postoperative day.
Clinical model 1 consisted of 3 preoperative clinical parameters that either were significantly associated with AKI in univariate analysis (preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction percent and body mass index >30 kg/m2) or were clinically relevant for the model (preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 ml/min per 1.73 m2). Clinical model 2 was the Cleveland Clinic score validated for predicting AKI–renal replacement therapy following cardiac surgery.30 Duplets of biomarkers were combined as follows: (i) at least 1 biomarker above the cutoff value (combination 1), or (ii) both biomarkers above the cutoff value (combination 2). Biomarker data were log10 transformed.
