From: Albumin rather than C-reactive protein may be valuable in predicting and monitoring the severity and course of acute respiratory distress syndrome in critically ill patients with or at risk for the syndrome after new onset fever

Figure 2

Median and inter quartile range of albumin and C-reactive protein (CRP) for the Berlin definition on ARDS. The Berlin categories are inversely associated with albumin levels (P = 0.01) and directly with CRP levels (P = 0.02) in generalized estimating equations. ● no acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS, Berlin 0), ■ mild ARDS (Berlin 1), ▲ moderate ARDS (Berlin 2) ▼ severe ARDS (Berlin 3). Numbers refer to numbers of patients.
