CRP, extracellular DNA and annexin A1 mRNA levels in relation to ARDS severity. CRP (a), extracellular DNA (b), and annexin A1 mRNA (c) levels predicted by a linear mixed model. controls (full line), mild/moderate ARDS patients (small dotted line), and severe ARDS patients (large dotted line) are represented. For each prediction, the confidence interval is represented by the gray region. All values are represented on the graph: circles for controls, triangles for mild/moderate ARDS patients, and squares for severe ARDS patients. Fixed effects of the model with the CRP are: 5.314 − 0.175 × mild/moderate ARDS − 0.291 × severe ARDS − 0.036 × time. Fixed effects of the model with DNA are: 5.969 − 1.311 × mild/moderate ARDS + 0.167 × severe ARDS − 0.011 × time. Fixed effects of the model with annexin A1 are: 0.400 − 0.125 × mild/moderate ARDS − 0.077 × severe ARDS + 0.003 × time
