Concentration of IL-6 and IL-8 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid during ventilation with a tidal volume of 6 ml/kg PBW or 3 ml/kg PBW. Dots and dashed lines show the individual values for each patient. Y-axis is traced using a logarithmic scale. The lower and upper hinges correspond to the first and third quartiles (the 25th and 75th percentiles). The upper and lower whiskers extend from the hinge to the largest or smallest value no further than 1.5 times the interquartile range from the hinge. Individual values are shown as points. Values for a given patient are connected by dashed lines. P values were obtained using a Wilcoxon test for paired data. PBW predicted body weight, IL interleukin
