Data are presented as OR (95% CI). See Table 2 legend for expansion of abbreviations.

a

OR for mortality in indirect ARDS, 0.99 (95% CI, 0.52-1.91; P = .98); OR for mortality in direct ARDS, 2.26 (95% CI, 0.94-5.45; P = .07). Test of interaction P = .14. There was no evidence for interaction for any other biomarker in the single-center data.

b

OR for mortality in indirect ARDS, 1.17 (95% CI, 0.85-1.62; P = .33); OR for mortality in direct ARDS, 1.51 (95% CI, 1.19-1.91; P = .001). Test of interaction P = .22. There was no evidence for interaction for any other biomarker in the multicenter data.
