<div>The effect of lung injury score and concentrations of angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) in epithelial lining fluid (ELF), of circulating endocan, and of circulating protein C on the number of days without organ failure other than ARDS. Survival curves are censored for mortality. The values of the log-rank test and the respective <i>p</i> values are shown.</div>
