Comparison of ATX levels, serum IL-8, and BALF MMP-7 in survivors and non-survivors of ARDS. Serum ATX was significantly higher in non-survivors than in survivors (A). There was no significant difference in the BALF ATX level according to survival status in patients with ARDS (B). Serum MMP-7 (C) and BALF IL-8 (D) levels were significantly higher in non-survivors than in survivors. ARDS, acute respiratory distress syndrome; ATX, autotaxin; BALF, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid; IL-8, interleukin-8; MMP-7, matrix metalloproteinase-7
