16. Community onset sepsis in Sweden - a population based study
Sammanfattning : Sepsis and previously “severe sepsis” are concepts used for denoting organ dysfunction caused by acute infection. Organ dysfunction correlates to increased case fatality rates. Sepsis is a common cause of hospitalization. Currently, sepsis is estimated to annually cause 30 million cases and 6 million deaths worldwide. LÄS MER
17. Neutrophil and endothelial cell-mediated inflammation in abdominal sepsis
Sammanfattning : Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening condition caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Neutrophils are themost abundant innate immune cells of the body and play a key role in septic pathogenesis. LÄS MER

19. On the prognostic value of Heparin-binding protein in Sepsis
Sammanfattning : Sepsis causes major morbidity and mortality worldwide. There is wide consensus that biomarkers have an important role in sepsis research and patient care. Heparin-binding protein (HBP) is a neutrophil-derived, proinflammatory and vascular permeability-inducing protein and a promising novel sepsis biomarker. LÄS MER
20. Dynamics of Human Leukocyte Antigen-D Related expression in bacteremic sepsis
Sammanfattning : Monocytic human leukocyte antigen-D related (mHLA-DR) expression determined by flow cytometry has been suggested as a biomarker of sepsisinduced immunosuppression.In order to facilitate use of HLA-DR in clinical practice, a quantitative real-time PCR technique measuring HLA-DR at the transcription level was developed and evalutated.
