Variables at the top were selected by several feature selection methods. RBC, red blood cell; Δ creatinine 48 h, change in serum creatinine within the last 48 h; INR, international normalized ratio.
Transformed into categorical variables (measured versus not measured) due to missingness >25%; +, positive correlation with AKI; –, negative correlation with AKI.
