Comparison of plasma interleukin-8 levels in survivors and non-survivors with or without pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome. a Comparison of plasma IL-8 in survivors with acute respiratory failure with or without PARDS. IL-8 is significantly higher in survivors with PARDS on each day (p < 0.05). b Comparison of plasma IL-8 in non-survivors with acute respiratory failure with or without PARDS. In non-survivors, IL-8 levels are not significantly different in children with or without PARDS. Day 0 is the day of intubation. The number inside each bar indicates the number of plasma samples analyzed from the indicated days. IL-8 interleukin-8, PARDS pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome
