11. Adrenomedullin in sepsis
Sammanfattning : AbstractBackgroundSepsis is a syndrome difficult to diagnose and stratify. The epidemiology of sepsis and consistency of criteria fulfillment with diagnosis coding in Swedish intensive care units (ICU) are largely unknown. Biomarkers can be of help to understand pathophysiology, identify clusters within sepsis and to individualize treatment. LÄS MER
12. Antibiotic-induced Bacterial Toxin Release – Inhibition by Protein Synthesis Inhibitors
Sammanfattning : Toxic products, such as endotoxin from the gram-negative and exotoxin from the gram-positive bacteria, are the most important initiators of the inflammatory host response in sepsis. In addition to antibacterial treatment, numerous attempts have been made to interfere with the exaggerated proinflammatory cascade initiated by the toxins. LÄS MER
13. Heparin-binding protein and organ failure in critical illness
Sammanfattning : Background: For patients severely ill enough to require care in an intensive care unit (ICU), both the disease itself (e.g. bacteria in the blood in sepsis or fractures after trauma) and effects of the immune system can cause circulatory, pulmonary, or renal dysfunction. Leukocytes play a dominant role in the immune system. LÄS MER

15. On bioenergetic failure in septic shock : lactate kinetics and mitochondrial respiration
Sammanfattning : Septic shock, a dysregulated immune response to an infection, is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in patients treated in intensive care units (ICUs). The cause of the organ dysfunction seen in sepsis is still not fully elucidated, but a disrupted intracellular metabolism, a bioenergetics failure, has been suggested as a possible mechanism.
