Hospital mortality, the number of ventilator free days, and incidence of infection.
If there will be no data of hospital mortality, we will collect 28-60days mortality as short-term mortality. Incidence of infection will collect data of the number of patients with infection during hospital stay. Hospital mortality and incidence of infection will integrate risk ratio. VFDs will integrate mean difference.
ICU mortality, ICU length of stay (LOS), hospital LOS, ventilator days and oxygenation.
We will collect data of P/F ratio on study day 7 as oxygenation. ICU mortality will integrate risk ratio. ICU LOS, hospital LOS, ventilator days and P/F ratio will integrate mean difference.

Male and Female
Patients with ARDS, which was diagnosed by American European Consensus (1994) or Berlin (2012) diagnosis criteria. We will also include patients with acute respiratory failure which is defined as follow:
- An acute onset of hypoxemia, with P/F ratio 200 mmHg and less
- Bilateral noncardiogenic pulmonary edema
- No clinical evidence of increased left atrial hypertension or a pulmonary artery wedge pressure 18 mmHg and less in the presence of a pulmonary artery catheter.
- Cardiac edema
- Hypercapnia without hypoxia
- Contraindication of steroids
- Diseases which steroids is effective
- History of steroids use by some months before inclusion
- No ventilation
- Acute lung injury associated with immaturity and congenital malformations

1. Types of study to be included.
We will include any randomized controlled trials.
2. Searches.
The following electronic database will be used; MEDLINE, CENTRAL, and ICHUSHI Web.
3. Risk of bias assessment.
Risk of bias will be classified as high, low or unclear by 2 or more reviewers. Any disagreements are resolved by discussion among reviewers. We will assess selection performance, detection attrition and reporting bias, and other potential risks of bias.
4. Strategy for data synthesis.
4.1. Summary measures
Collected variables will be synthesized by using random-effects methods. We will create a 'Summary of findings table' using follow seven outcomes; hospital mortality, VFDs, incidence of infection, ICU mortality, ICU LOS, hospital LOS, and data of P/F ratio. Each outcomes will be checked the certainty of the evidence by risk of bias, inconsistency/heterogeneity, indirectness, imprecision and publication bias. Our conclusion will be presented by a Summary of findings table.
4.2. Assessment of heterogeneity
We will assess heterogeneity by using visual inspection of forest plot, I2 statics and Cochran's Q statistic.
4.3. Subgroup analysis
We will conduct subgroup analysis about timing, anti-inflammatory potency, duration of steroids and age for the primary outcomes. The anti-inflammatory potency will be divided into three categories of methylprednisolone equivalents. We will categorize duration of steroids by considering half-life of steroids. Age will divide into 18 and more years old or less than 18.
4.4. Publication bias
Publication bias will be accessed by funnel plot and will use Egger's test (p value of less than 0.05 for a two-sided test) to assess reporting bias when 10 or more studies will be synthesized.
4.5. Sensitivity analysis
We will exclude studies that do not clearly show compliance with the low tidal ventilation strategy and studies with the sequential stopping rule and high risk of bias for the primary outcomes.
