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.About:

Soraya Araya,Fernando Galeano,Sara Amarilla,Nicolás González,Silvio Apodaca,Dolores Lovera,Antonio Arbo +6 more
TL;DR: Clinical characteristics of invasive Staphylococcus aureus infections in children and prognostic factors of severity and mortality were described and Mortality was significant; associated risk factors included the presence, at the time of admission, of hypotension, multifocal disease, leukopenia, severe anemia, and metabolic acidosis.

Factors in Homo and Heterotypic Aggregate Formation in Sepsis
TL;DR: This review focuses on the understanding of molecular interactions that lead to the formation of cellular aggregates in sepsis and puts novel treatment targets in the context of these interactions.

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.

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.

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.
