background the evidence saying that the rate of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (sirs) is high in patients with advanced cirrhosis and portal hypertension, this could have negative outcome on patients prognosis. methods this prospective study included 109 cirrhotic patients who were admitted to imam khomeini hospital, affiliated with orumieh university of medical sciences, during 2011-2...

BACKGROUND Sepsis is an infection which has evoked a systemic inflammatory response. Clinically, the Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) is identified by two or more symptoms including fever or hypothermia, tachycardia, tachypnoea and change in blood leucocyte count. The relationship between SIRS symptoms and morbidity and mortality in medical emergency ward patients is unknown. ME...

BACKGROUND The diseases most frequent associated with SIRS in adult horses are those involving the gastrointestinal tract. An early diagnosis should be the goal in the management of horses with SIRS. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the plasma procalcitonin (PCT) concentration in healthy and SIRS horses to assess differences between the two groups. ANIMALS Seventy-eight...

Infection associated with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with major surgery, polytrauma, and severe burn injury. In previous studies, mice with severe pancreatitis (a mouse model of SIRS, SIRS mice) have been shown to be greatly susceptible to various infections. In the present study, a mechanism involved in the impaired re...

The authors present a preliminary report concerning systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) occurrence in patients after operations in the abdominal segment of the aorta. Considering the small amount of analysed patients, the authors only indicate that aneurysm of the abdominal aorta can be a cause of SIRS formation. The significance of SIRS occurrence in connection with the type of impl...

INTRODUCTION Consensus guidelines recommend sepsis screening for adults with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), but the epidemiology of SIRS among adult emergency department (ED) patients is poorly understood. Recent emphasis on cost-effective, outcomes-based healthcare prompts the evaluation of the performance of large-scale efforts such as sepsis screening. We studied a nationall...
