For pairwise comparisons, 0 = mechanically ventilated control group, 1 = cardiopulmonary bypass with deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (CPB/DHCA) animals without acute kidney injury (AKI), and 2 = CPB/DHCA animals with AKI. The first number in each pairwise comparison represents the group with the higher level of the corresponding metabolite (e.g., anthranilate 1-0 = higher level of anthranilate in CPB/DHCA animals without AKI compared with mechanically ventilated controls). FDR, false discovery rate.
