Fig. 1From: Circulating microparticle levels are reduced in patients with ARDSDevelopment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with reduced circulating microparticle concentrations. Microparticle concentrations were measured in platelet-poor plasma samples obtained at study enrollment on the morning after intensive care unit admission. Development of ARDS was evaluated daily for 4 days. n = 177 without ARDS, n = 81 with ARDSBack to article page
