Objective: To achieve a better prediction of in-hospital mortality, the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score needs to be adjusted and combined with comorbidities. This study aims to enhance the prediction of SOFA score for in-hospital mortality in patients with Sepsis-3. Methods: This study adjusted the maximum SOFA score within the first 3 days (Max Day3 SOFA) in relation to in-hospital mortality using logistic regression and incorporated the age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index (aCCI) as a continuous variable to build the age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index-Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (aCCI-SOFA) model.

Purpose: Sepsis is an aggressive and life-threatening organ dysfunction induced by infection. Excessive inflammation and coagulation contribute to the negative outcomes for sepsis, resulting in high morbidity and mortality. In this study, we explored whether Eupatilin could alleviate lung injury, reduce inflammation and coagulation during sepsis.

Background: Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by dysregulation of the host response to infection. There is still a lack of specific treatment for sepsis. Here, we report that Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2) can reduce the mortality of sepsis by ameliorating the coagulation abnormalities.

Excessive inflammation and coagulation contribute to high morbidity and mortality in sepsis. Many studies have indicated the role of piperlongumine (PL) in anti-inflammation, but its effect on coagulation remains uncertain. Here, we explore whether PL could moderate coagulation indicators and alleviate lung inflammation during sepsis.
