Background: Sepsis is a significant health burden on a global scale. Timely identification and treatment of sepsis can greatly improve patient outcomes, including survival rates. However, time-consuming laboratory results are often needed for screening sepsis.

Sepsis is a leading cause of death worldwide, with most patient mortality stemming from lingering immunosuppression in sepsis survivors. This is due in part to immune dysfunction resulting from monocyte exhaustion, a phenotype of reduced antigen presentation, altered CD14/CD16 inflammatory subtypes, and disrupted cytokine production. Whereas previous research demonstrated improved sepsis survival in Ticam2 mice, the contribution of TICAM2 to long-term exhaustion memory remained unknown.

This study aims to verify whether the blood flow velocity and the diameter size, measured through intra-carotid artery Doppler measurements performed on sepsis patients visiting the emergency department, are useful as tools for predicting the risk of early death. As a prospective study, this research was performed on sepsis patients who visited a local emergency medical center from August 2021 to February 2023. The sepsis patients' carotid artery was measured using Doppler imaging, and they were divided into patients measured for the size of systolic and diastolic mean blood flow velocity and diameter size: those measured for their qSOFA (quick sequential organ failure assessment) score and those measured using the SIRS (systemic inflammatory response syndrome) criteria.

Early identification of sepsis in emergency department patients is critical for initiating timely interventions, highlighting the need for effective predictive scoring systems. A retrospective observational study was conducted using data from the CETAT database collected between December 2019 and October 2021. The study evaluated how well the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), quick Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA), and National Early Warning Score (NEWS) scoring systems, along with logistic regression models, predict sepsis, and high-risk sepsis in emergency department patients.

Background: In critically ill periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) patients, surgeons need to balance the need for aggressive, definitive treatment against the health state of a potentially unstable patient. A clear understanding of the association between treatment outcomes and assessment scores for sepsis would benefit clinical decision-making in these urgent cases. The current study evaluates the effect of critical illness on debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR) outcomes, as defined by systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and, for the first time, by contemporary markers quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) and Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS).
