  1. Values are expressed as median and interquartile range. Statistical analysis was performed using a mixed linear model with Tukey-Kramer adjustment for multiple comparisons. Statistical significance was accepted at α = 0.05. ns = non-significant; CTRL = control; SALB = salbutamol; it = intratracheally; iv = intravenously; ARDSp = pulmonary acute respiratory distress syndrome; ARDSexp = extrapulmonary acute respiratory distress syndrome.
