Toward Automated Early Sepsis Alerting: Identifying Infection Patients from Nursing Notes [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Severe sepsis and septic shock are conditions that affect millions of patients and have close to 50% mortality rate. Early identification of at-risk patients significantly improves outcomes. Electronic surveillance tools have been developed to monitor structured Electronic Medical Records and automatically recognize early signs of sepsis. However, many

Early Prediction of Sepsis From Clinical Data: The PhysioNet/Computing in Cardiology Challenge 2019

open access: yes2019 Computing in Cardiology (CinC), 2019
The PhysioNet/Computing in Cardiology Challenge focused on the early detection of sepsis from clinical data. A total of 40,336 patient records from two distinct hospital systems were shared with participants while 22,761 patient records from three ...

Identification of CD38high Monocyte as a Candidate Diagnostic Biomarker and Therapeutic Target for Sepsis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers that CD38high monocytes discriminate sepsis and sterile inflammation and are associated with 28‐day mortality in bacterial sepsis. Targeting CD38 therapy reduces inflammatory response in monocytes and in sepsis mice model. Mechanistically, CD38‐HIF‐1α/glycolysis/MGO loop exacerbates sepsis‐induced immune dysregulation.

Hyperresponsiveness of mice deficient in plasma-secreted sphingomyelinase reveals its pivotal role in early phase of host response

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2013
Plasma secretion of acid sphingomyelinase is a hallmark of cellular stress response resulting in the formation of membrane embedded ceramide-enriched lipid rafts and the reorganization of receptor complexes.

Determining the impact of professional body recommendations on the screening of acquired carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales in England

open access: yesInfection Prevention in Practice, 2023
Summary: Introduction: Acquired carbapenemase-producing Gram-negative bacteria are an increasing public health concern globally and have been mandatory to report in England since October 2020. However, in light of the COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic, the

Intensive insulin therapy and pentastarch resuscitation in severe sepsis.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2008
BACKGROUND The role of intensive insulin therapy in patients with severe sepsis is uncertain. Fluid resuscitation improves survival among patients with septic shock, but evidence is lacking to support the choice of either crystalloids or colloids ...

Engineering Extracellular Vesicles Derived from 3D Cultivation of BMSCs Enriched with HGF Ameliorate Sepsis‐Induced Lung Epithelial Barrier Damage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
3D culture of MSCs upregulates gene expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), growth factors (GFs), and increases the production of extracellular vesicles (EVs). Proteomic analysis reveals 642 upregulated proteins in 3D‐EVs, including HGF. These 3D‐EVs, enriched with HGF, protect lung epithelial cells from apoptosis and barrier damage in septic ...

Acid Sphingomyelinase Promotes Endothelial Stress Response in Systemic Inflammation and Sepsis

open access: yesMolecular Medicine, 2016
The pathophysiology of sepsis involves activation of acid sphingomyelinase (SMPD1) with subsequent generation of the bioactive mediator ceramide. We herein evaluate the hypothesis that the enzyme exerts biological effects in endothelial stress response ...

Temporal Pattern Discovery for Accurate Sepsis Diagnosis in ICU Patients [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Sepsis is a condition caused by the body's overwhelming and life-threatening response to infection, which can lead to tissue damage, organ failure, and finally death. Common signs and symptoms include fever, increased heart rate, increased breathing rate, and confusion. Sepsis is difficult to predict, diagnose, and treat.
