Leveraging Implicit Expert Knowledge for Non-Circular Machine Learning in Sepsis Prediction [PDF]
Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, Volume 100, September 2019,
Pages 101725, 2019 Sepsis is the leading cause of death in non-coronary intensive care units. Moreover, a delay of antibiotic treatment of patients with severe sepsis by only few hours is associated with increased mortality. This insight makes accurate models for early prediction of sepsis a key task in machine learning for healthcare.

All that seems sepsis is not sepsis
Indian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2013 Catastrophic antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (CAPS) resembles severe sepsis in its acute presentation, with features of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) leading to multiple organ dysfunction. Infections are the best known triggers of CAPS. This emphasizes the need for early diagnosis and aggressive treatment as the mortality is as high

Reduction of circulating cholesterol and apolipoprotein levels during sepsis [PDF]
, 1999 Sepsis with multiple organ failure is frequently associated with a substantial decrease of cholesterol levels. This decrease of cholesterol is strongly associated with mortality suggesting a direct relation between inflammatory conditions and altered ...

Sepsis Prediction with Temporal Convolutional Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 We design and implement a temporal convolutional network model to predict sepsis onset. Our model is trained on data extracted from MIMIC III database, based on a retrospective analysis of patients admitted to intensive care unit who did not fall under the definition of sepsis at the time of admission.

Critical Care Medicine, 2020 Objectives: Recent evidence from the fields of microbiology and immunology, as well as a small number of human sepsis studies, suggest that epigenetic regulation may play a central role in the pathogenesis of sepsis. The term “epigenetics” refers to regulatory mechanisms that control gene expression but are not related to ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Unique nanopillar metasurfaces are fabricated for the purpose of sensitive detection to refractive index changes in the presence of gold nanoparticles. The addition of these nanoparticles to the surface of the silicon nanopillars is facilitated via a novel antibiotic‐mediated linker system to promote localized surface plasmon effects resulting from Mie
