Observational Study
Inflammasome expression and cytomegalovirus viremia in critically ill patients with sepsis.
CMV viremia is a contributor to poor outcomes in critically ill patients with sepsis. ⋯ These data document possible involvement of inflammasome in the pathogenesis of CMV. Regulating the host immune response by agents that target these genes may have implications for improving CMV-related outcomes in these patients.
