Extravascular lung water indexed to pulmonary blood volume in patients with or without acute lung injury and/or acute respiratory distress syndrome. (a) Extravascular lung water (EVLW) indexed to pulmonary blood volume (PBV) in patients with or without acute lung injury (ALI). Filled boxes = patients with ALI, unfilled boxes = patients without ALI (PBV: 2.1 [1.6 to 3.0] vs 1.6 [1.3 to 1.9], P = 0.02). (b) EVLW indexed to PBV in patients with or without acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Filled boxes = patients with ARDS, unfilled boxes = patients without ARDS (2.3 [1.6 to 3.1] vs 1.7 [1.3 to 1.9], P = 0.04). Data are medians [IQR]. *P < 0.05.
