Treatment of Gram-Negative Septic Shock with Human IgG Antibody to Escherichia coli J5: A Prospective, Double-Blind, Randomized Trial [PDF]
In a randomized, double-blind, multicenter trial we compared the efficacy of a preparation of human IgG antibody to Escherichia coli 15 (J5-IVIG) with that of a standard IgG preparation (IVIG) for the treatment of gram-negative septic shock.

Left ventricular systolic function evaluated by strain echocardiography and relationship with mortality in patients with severe sepsis or septic shock. a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction is associated with poor outcomes, but traditional measurements of systolic function such as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) do not directly correlate with prognosis.

Bilirubin Targeting WNK1 to Alleviate NLRP3‐Mediated Neuroinflammation
At physiological concentrations, bilirubin binds to the kinase domain of WNK1, thereby augmenting its activity and facilitating the phosphorylation of downstream SPAK/OSR1. This phosphorylation inhibits KCC2 activity, leading to elevate intracellular chloride levels in neurons.
