Background: Amidst the complexities of sepsis-induced inflammatory responses and myocardial injury, this study investigates the therapeutic potential of vitamin C in mitigating sepsis complications. The findings offer crucial insights into the prospective use of vitamin C, shaping future strategies for enhanced patient care.
Objective: To investigate the impact of vitamin C on the inflammatory response and myocardial damage in individuals with sepsis.
Methods: A total of 83 sepsis patients treated in our hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 were randomly divided into a control group (n=41, receiving basic treatment) and a study group (n=42, receiving vitamin C in addition to basic treatment). To evaluate the impact of treatment, we compared organ dysfunction, inflammatory response index, myocardial injury index, and morbidity/mortality rates before and after the intervention in both groups. It allowed for a comprehensive analysis of the treatment's effects on these key parameters.
Results: After therapy, the study group exhibited lower SOFA ratings compared to the control group (P < .05). Levels of Hypersensitive C-reactive Protein (hs-CRP), Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF), High Mobility Group Protein B1 (HMGB1), Creatine Kinase Isoenzyme (CK-MB), Troponin I (cTnI), and B-type brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were significantly lower in the study group than in the control group after treatment (P < .05). The study group also demonstrated a lower morbidity and mortality rate (9.52%) compared to the control group (29.27%) (P < .05).
Conclusions: Vitamin C supplementation holds significant therapeutic value, contributing to reduced inflammatory response, myocardial injury, morbidity, and mortality rates in sepsis patients. This intervention enhances clinical efficacy, fostering disease regression.

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) induces an imbalance in T helper (Th) 17/regulatory T (Treg) cells that contributes to of the dysregulation of inflammation. Exercise training can modulate the immune response in healthy subjects.
Objective: We aimed to evaluate the effects of exercise training on Th17/Treg responses and the differentiation of Treg phenotypes in individuals with COPD.

Inflammation plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of various diseases by promoting the acquisition of new functional traits by different cell types. Shared risk factors between cardiovascular disease and cancer, including smoking, obesity, diabetes, high-fat diet, low physical activity, and alcohol consumption, contribute to inflammation linked to platelet activation. Platelets contribute to an inflammatory state by activating various normal cells, such as fibroblasts, immune cells, and vascular cells.
