Investigators created a model to identify patients at high-risk for post-operative urosepsis.

Firstly, it is necessary to make a distinction between systemic inflammation and Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS). SIRS consists of changes in clinical signs including an abnormal ...

In both cases, the outcome may be acute lung injury, which is part of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). DAMPs, damage-associated molecular patterns; PAMPs, pathogen-associated ...

Sepsis is a life-threatening, heterogeneous disorder involving a dysregulated immune response to infection. Research to identify subtypes and targeted therapies for host dysregulation is ongoing.

Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is an inflammatory state affecting the whole body, frequently a response of the immune system to infection, but not necessarily so.

The consensus definition of severe sepsis requires suspected or proven infection, organ failure, and signs that meet two or more criteria for the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). We ...

Blood count–derived inflammatory markers, such as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), can indicate treatment response to biologics, as well as ...

A new study suggests that mitochondria can be released into the bloodstream following physical injury, resulting in a sepsis-like immune response, and leading to the onset of the systemic ...

A small study found that six months after hospitalization, most children with MIS-C did not have debilitating health issues. But some had lingering muscle weakness and emotional difficulties.

Study Finds Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Inflammatory Bowel Disease Share a Common Set of Microbiome Characteristics In a new study, researchers looked to identify unique biomarkers and shared ...
