Text: Baseline plasma levels of interleukin-6, interleukin-8, and interleukin-10 were each associated with an increased risk of death in both logistic regression analyses controlling for ventilator group (odds ratio 1. 63 per log-10 increment, 95 % confidence interval 1. 33-1. 98 ; odds ratio 2. 33 per log-10 increment, 95 % confidence interval 1. 79-3. 03 ; odds ratio 2. 02 per log-10 increment, 95 % confidence interval 1. 47-2. 76, respectively) and multivariate analyses controlling for ventilation strategy, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation III score, Pao2/Fio2 ratio, creatinine, platelet count, and vasopressor use (odds ratio 1. 63 per log-10 increment, 95 % confidence interval 0. 93-1. 49 ; odds ratio 1. 73 per log-10 increment, 95 % confidence interval 1. 29-2. 34 ; odds ratio 1. 23 per log-10 increment, 95 % confidence interval 0. 86-1. 76, respectively).
