Risk factors for carnitine deficiency in critically ill adults: A descriptive cross‐sectional study
A high proportion of our study population had carnitine deficiency. Continuous renal replacement therapy and a lower body mass index were significant predictors in the multivariable model. Female sex and a history of chronic kidney disease may warrant further exploration based on significance in the univariable analysis.
