CPA and upstream regulator analysis of BALF. A IPA was used to identify the top 20 activated CPAs with p values < 0.05 for proteins in the BALF of ARDS patients. B Using IPA, we identified the top 20 suppressed CPAs with p values < 0.05 for proteins in the BALF of ARDS patients. C Top activated upstream regulators of proteins in the BALF of ARDS patients. D Top suppressed upstream regulators of proteins in the BALF of ARDS patients.
