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.

Extracorporeal life support and systemic inflammation

TL;DR: Two different but complementary pathophysiological perspectives will be developed in this review: ECLs as the cause of inflammation and ECLS as the treatment of inflammation, which may be useful in guiding the development of novel therapeutic strategies to improve the outcome of critical illness.

T cells and their immunometabolism: A novel way to understanding sepsis immunopathogenesis and future therapeutics.

TL;DR: The therapeutic targeting of T cell immunometabolism (both conventional T cells and Tregs) during sepsis as a future immunomodulatory approach for its management is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sepsis-Induced Acute Kidney Injury

TL;DR: The role of the innate immune response to sepsis and its downstream effects on kidney structure and function with special reference to the adaptive cellular response and glomerular hemodynamic changes is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sepsis Induces Hematopoietic Stem Cell Exhaustion and Myelosuppression through Distinct Contributions of TRIF and MYD88

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that both cell-autonomous and non-cell autonomous TLR4 activation are major causes of myelosuppression during sepsis, while having a modest impact on hematopoietic stem cell function.

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.
