Biological subphenotypes have been identified in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) based on two parsimonious models: the "uninflamed" and "reactive" subphenotype (cluster-model) and "hypo-inflammatory" and "hyper-inflammatory" (latent class analysis (LCA) model). The distinction between the subphenotypes is mainly driven by inflammatory and coagulation markers in plasma. However, systemic inflammation is...
