Filter by:This study aims to clarify the role of blood indices of systemic inflammation in ICU-admitted patients with abdominal sepsis to assess their diagnostic significance as well as their prognostic value.
Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. For clinical operationalization, organ dysfunction can be represented by an increase in the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score of 2 points or more, which is associated with an in-hospital mortality greater than 10%. pancreatic stone protein has been studied as biomarker of sepsis and results suggests that it has higher diagnostic performance. The main objective of this study is to identify ability of pancreatic stone protein (PSP) as a new biomarker for diagnosis of urosepsis in Intensive Care Units comparison to other biomarkers and its role as a prognostic marker for mortality
The objective of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic effect of nafamostat mesilate on patients with severe infection-related coagulation。
1) Establish a clinical data database for sepsis patients in the Emergency Department of the First Hospital of Jilin University. Describe the clinical data and prognosis of patients with simple systemic inflammatory response syndrome (common infection), pre sepsis, sepsis, and septic shock. 2) Explore the risk factors related to the progression of sepsis in patients in the early stages, as well as the risk factors related to the patient's prognosis. 3) Analyze the risk factors related to the prognosis of sepsis patients, and provide clinical basis for the treatment and long-term prognosis of sepsis patients. 4) Search for diagnostic biomarkers and prognostic serum biomarkers for patients with sepsis, sepsis, and septic shock.
To observe the changes of plasma rTEM levels in patients with sepsis, sepsis induced ARDS, and to explore its clinical significance.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the use of aspirin for the prevention of preeclampsia among moderate -to- high-risk pregnant women in tertiary care hospitals in Nigeria followed by a qualitative study to evaluate the barriers and facilitators of aspirin use in prenatal care for the prevention of preeclampsia in Nigeria. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. Is Aspirin used for the prevention of preeclampsia among pregnant women in Nigeria? 2. What factors promote or prevent the utilization of Aspirin for preeclampsia prevention among pregnant women in Nigeria.
The overall objective of this prospective observational study is to address the significant knowledge gap that exists around the impact of immune dysfunction on the development and survival from sepsis in patients with cancer. This proposal primarily focuses on establishing the transcriptomic immune profiles of sepsis patients with a background of cancer. This analysis will be complemented with in vitro functional analyses, and in addition will commence a collection of genome-wide data, including a focus on predicting white cell number and function in health. Uniquely, the investigators propose to establish a robust link between these analyses: transcriptomic, in vitro, and genome-wide, to enable them to comprehensively explore septic oncology patient 'immune phenotypes' and effectively identify novel exploitable therapeutic pathways. To this end, this project will collect, analyse and/or sequence DNA, RNA, leukocytes and soluble materials from a cohort of oncology patients presenting to intensive care with sepsis. This cohort will include all-comers with an oncological background but will also focus on two core groups at high risk of sepsis where baseline samples can also be sought prior to major immunosuppressive events in the cancer pathway. These are: 1. Oesophageal/upper gastrointestinal (GI) cancer patients prior to systemic anticancer therapy initiation or surgery 2. Haematological malignancy patients prior to stem cell transplantation. These sub-cohorts will provide a previously unexplored unique insight into the role of pre-existing patient transcriptomic phenotypes.
Rapid identification of pathogens and early warning of host response are key to improve the prognosis of sepsis. Establishing a comprehensive identification system based on pathogen identification and host immune status is an effective way to achieve early warning stratification of patients with infections in the emergency department. This prospective multicenter clinical study will combine droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) and transcriptomic molecular target assay for validation in patients with suspected sepsis in the emergency department. The purpose is to (1) compare the efficacy of ddPCR with blood culture for early diagnosis and prognosis; (2) assess the diagnostic value of transcriptomic molecular targets based on 29 messenger RNA for the presence or absence of infection as well as infectious agents, and to evaluate their efficacy for prognosis; and (3) assess the diagnostic and therapeutic monitoring value of ddPCR combined with transcriptome analysis methods.
The present study is a single-centre prospective study that will enrol pregnant women during their first trimester of pregnancy (11+0 - 13+6 weeks of gestation). During pregnancy, women will undergo standard clinical evaluation and management. During the two study visits (enrollment and 24+0 - 27+6 weeks of gestation) the investigators will perform arterial tonometry (Pulsepen) and in vivo darkfield microscopy (Glycocheck) to evaluate endothelial and vascular function. A urine sample and a blood sample for specific study analyses on metabolic profile, endothelial and angiogenic markers will be collected. Pregnancy outcomes will be collected at delivery and five years after delivery all the participants will be interview to collect long-term cardiovascular outcomes. Serum endothelial and angiogenic markers will be evaluated only in participants who will develop hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and in an equal number of controls matched for age and body mass index at the time of conception.
Neonatal septicemia remains one of the main causes of neonatal morbidity and mortality . Sepsis which is caused by a dysregulated host response to an infectious trigger leading to a life threatening organ dysfunction was declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) on May 2017 as a global health priority that requires resolution for its prevention , dignosis , and management (Monneret et al., 2019). Despite the advances in perinatal and neonatal sepsis remains high and the outcome is still sever (Chirio et al.,2011) . HLA-DR is on the surface of monocyte \ macrophages , dendritic cells, and B cells and plays a crucial role in adaptive immune response , More than 30 years ago , researches proved an association between the low level of HLA-DR and the development of sepsis (Cheadle at al .,1991) . A decreased expression of mHLA-DR molecules has been associated with immunoparalysis , which is an inflammatory immune responce that occurs in sepsis .(Pradhan et al.,2016).
