Neonatal Sepsis and Inflammatory Mediators
Neonatal sepsis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality and its signs and symptoms are nonspecific, which makes the diagnosis difficult. The routinely used laboratory tests are not effective methods of analysis, as they are extremely nonspecific and often cause inappropriate use of antibiotics. Sepsis is the result of an infection associated with a systemic inflammatory response with produc...
متن کاملInterleukin-8 in sepsis: relation to shock and inflammatory mediators.
Because of its neutrophil-activating properties, interleukin-8 (IL-8) may play an important role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. We measured circulating IL-8 levels in 47 patients with clinical sepsis. Levels on admission were elevated in 42 of the 47 patients (89%) and were comparable in patients with gram-positive or gram-negative infections. Patients with shock had significantly higher IL-...
متن کاملBiliverdin protects against polymicrobial sepsis by modulating inflammatory mediators.
Highly inducible heme oxygenase (HO)-1 is protective against acute and chronic inflammation. HO-1 generates carbon monoxide (CO), ferrous iron, and biliverdin. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effects of biliverdin against sepsis-induced inflammation and intestinal dysmotility. Cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) was performed on Sprague-Dawley rats under isoflurane anesthe...
متن کاملMolecular mediators of polymicrobial sepsis.
Sepsis is still a major cause of postoperative morbidity and mortality. Numerous biochemical indicators have been evaluated regarding their potential in predicting prognosis in sepsis. Generally, one must differentiate between indicators: those for preoperative risk of lethal sepsis, those for early prediction of lethal outcome and those for evaluating effectiveness of therapy. In the past, imm...
متن کاملThe Role of Mediators in Sepsis Resolution
A substantial proportion of patients with sepsis get better, presumably as a consequence of appropriate antibiotic therapy, source control (if there is a localized site of infection), and transient physiological support of failed organ systems. What are the biological events that mediate this process? Can a better understanding of this process lead to novel therapeutic targets or strategies? Wh...
