Fractalkine levels in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and critically ill patients with no CAP. Blood was drawn from patients within 24 hours of admission to the ICU (day 0) and at days 2 and 4. a Fractalkine plasma levels in patients with suspected CAP upon ICU admission and classified in retrospect as having CAP or no CAP. Differences between groups were not significant. b Fractalkine levels were higher in patients with shock on admission (b) and in non-survivors (at day 30) (c) in both CAP and no-CAP patients. Box and whisker diagrams depict the median and lower quartile, upper quartile, and their respective 1.5 IQR as whiskers (as specified by Tukey). Dotted lines represent the median level in healthy volunteers (HV). ***P <0.001, *P <0.05
