Comparison of cytokine trajectories for patients receiving A hydrocortisone (red) or placebo (blue) and B combinations of noradrenaline (grey outline, dashed line) or vasopressin (black outline, solid line) with either hydrocortisone (red) or placebo (blue) for monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interferon gamma-induced protein-10 (IP10). Data are displayed as box plots of the natural log of the cytokine concentrations (pg/ml) for each day after enrolment into the study with median values connected by a coloured line to illustrate trajectory. P values are those from comparing models with and without an interaction term between day and drug/drug combination after correction for multiple comparisons using the Benjamini–Hochberg procedure. These results were unchanged in the sensitivity analyses performed
