Cohort partitioning by urine biomarkers with outcome risk and adjudicated acute kidney injury type. (A) The cohort was partitioned into those with urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) values in the fourth quartile (Q4, ≥235 ng/ml) and those in the first three quartiles. The former group was then separated into those with urine YKL-40 ≥ 5 ng/ml and <5 ng/ml, respectively. The percentage of patients within each group/node that experienced the primary outcome is shown, with horizontal bar widths that are proportional to the numbers of patients in that node. (B) The percentage of patients within each terminal node that developed the primary outcome is depicted here as a (dotted) line graph, and the distribution of adjudicated acute kidney injury type within each terminal node is depicted as a stacked bar graph with corresponding percentages as shown. ATN, acute tubular necrosis.
