TLDR
Recent insights into the signaling pathways in immune and phagocytic cells that underlie sepsis and SIRS are discussed and how these might be targeted for therapeutic interventions to reverse or attenuate pathways that lead to lethality during sepsi are considered.

Zinc Signals in Inflammation

TL;DR: This chapter discusses zinc signals in inflammation with a focus on zinc dependent modulation of select signaling pathways and the effects on immune cell function in response to potentially damaging challenges.

Protective Effect of Poria Cocos Polysaccharides on Fecal Peritonitis-Induced Sepsis in Mice Through Inhibition of Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, Apoptosis, and Reduction of Treg Cells

TL;DR: Interestingly, PCP pre-treatment reduced inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress in plasma and spleen and improved the resistance to FIP, and its molecular mechanism is related to antioxidative, anti-inflammation,Anti-apoptosis, and the reduction of Treg activity in splenic cells.

Amarogentin has protective effects against sepsis-induced brain injury via modulating the AMPK/SIRT1/NF-κB pathway

TL;DR: Amarogentin (AMA) is a secoiridoid glycoside that is mainly derived from SwertiaandGentiana roots, and has been confirmed to exhibit antioxidative, tumor-suppressive and anti-diabetic properties as discussed by the authors .

Cytokines as Potential Biomarkers for Differential Diagnosis of Sepsis and Other Non-Septic Disease Conditions

TL;DR: The data suggests that sepsis is associated with a higher pro-inflammatory environment and levels of IL-1β, IL-12 and IL-17A had significantly higher levels compared to febrile controls but lower levels of MIP1-β/ CCL4, RANTES/CCL5 and IP10/CXCL10 when compared to children with malaria and febRIle controls.

Urine Hydrogen Peroxide Levels and Their Relation to Outcome in Patients with Sepsis, Septic Shock, and Major Burn Injury

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors measured H2O2 concentrations in the urine of 82 patients with severe infections, such as sepsis, septic shock, and infections not fulfilling SEPSIS-3 criteria, in patients with major burn injury with associated systemic inflammation, and healthy subjects.

Free radicals and antioxidants in normal physiological functions and human disease

TL;DR: Attention is focussed on the ROS/RNS-linked pathogenesis of cancer, cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis, hypertension, ischemia/reperfusion injury, diabetes mellitus, neurodegenerative diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, and ageing.

The Epidemiology of Sepsis in the United States from 1979 through 2000

TL;DR: The rate of sepsis due to fungal organisms increased by 207 percent, with gram-positive bacteria becoming the predominant pathogens after 1987, and the total in-hospital mortality rate fell, yet the total number of deaths continued to increase.
Journal ArticleDOI

The acute respiratory distress syndrome.

TL;DR: Progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms responsible for the pathogenesis and the resolution of lung injury, including the contribution of environmental and genetic factors, and on developing novel therapeutics that can facilitate and enhance lung repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunodesign of experimental sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture.

TL;DR: Standardized procedures for inducing sepsis in mice and rats are defined by applying defined severity grades of sepsi through modulation of the position of cecal ligation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunosuppression in patients who die of sepsis and multiple organ failure.

TL;DR: Patients who die in the ICU following sepsis compared with patients who die of nonsepsis etiologies have biochemical, flow cytometric, and immunohistochemical findings consistent with immunosuppression, and targeted immune-enhancing therapy may be a valid approach in selected patients with sepsi.
