CETPI plasma levels in patients with Gram-negative bacteraemia. A CETPI plasma concentration of patients with a positive blood culture for Gram-negative bacteria (n = 105) and control subjects (n = 47). B CETPI plasma concentration of patients with Delta SOFA score ˂2 (n = 50), or ˃ 2 (n = 55) and control subjects (n = 47). C CETPI plasma concentration between survivors (n = 100), non-survivors (n = 5), and control subjects (n = 47). Data are shown as median with IQR. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. Differences between groups were assessed using Mann- Whitney test or Kruskal–Wallis test and subsequent Dunn’s Multiple Comparison test. Samples were assessed in duplicate in ELISA assays
