From: Diagnostic utility of C-reactive Protein combined with brain natriuretic peptide in acute pulmonary edema: a cross sectional study

Figure 1

Plasma concentrations of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) A) and C-reactive protein (CRP) B) in patients with cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) ( n = 71), or acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) with ( n = 53). The p values show between these subjects. The BNP levels in CPE patients were higher than those in ALI/ARDS patients (p < 0.001). The CRP levels in the ALI/ARDS patients were higher than those in the CPE patients (p < 0.001).
