Major adverse kidney events after acute kidney injury in the pediatric intensive care unit: a propensity score –matched cohort study

ConclusionsPropensity score matching significantly reduced imbalance in baseline characteristics between those with and without AKI. After matching, AKI remained significantly associated with MAKE30. Patients who developed AKI were more likely to have abnormal kidney function at 30 and 90 days after ICU admission and may be at high risk for developing CKD in the future.Graphical abstractA higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information
