Influence of pathogen and focus of infection on procalcitonin values in sepsis patients with bacteremia or candidemia

open access: yesCritical Care, 2018
Background This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of procalcitonin (PCT) serum concentrations to diagnose Gram-negative bacteremia and the association of PCT serum concentrations with more specific pathogens and the focus of infection.

Iron status and the risk of sepsis and severe COVID-19: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Observational studies have indicated an association between iron status and risk of sepsis and COVID-19. We estimated the effect of genetically-predicted iron biomarkers on risk of sepsis and risk of being hospitalized with COVID-19, performing a two ...
