[The clinical significance of determining the severity and prognosis by monitoring the changes in sublingual microcirculation in patients with severe sepsis].
To investigate the clinical significance of dynamic monitoring of changes in the sublingual microcirculation in patients with severe sepsis to determine the degree of severity of the clinical condition and prognosis. ⋯ Sequential monitoring of the sublingual microcirculation in patients with severe sepsis can be used to determine the disease severity, and to forecast the outcome of the patient.

[Prognostic value of D-dimer in patients with sepsis in emergency department: a prospective study].
To investigate the value of the concentration of D-dimer in predicting 28-day mortality of sepsis patients in emergency department in order to determine its prognostic values. ⋯ D-dimer concentration is an independent predictor of 28--day mortality in patients with sepsis. D--dimer level shows a high predictive value in patients with sepsis, similar to APACHE II score and SAPSII. It can be helpful in risk stratification in septic patients.

[Effect of interleukin-10 level and human leukocyte antigen-DR expression as prognostic predictors in critically ill patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy].
To inquire into interleukin-10 (IL--10) level and monocyte expression of human leukocyte antigen--DR (HLA--DR) are predictors of infection and prognosis in critically ill patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). ⋯ (1)A significant discriminative power of IL--10 levels in predicting disease severity was found among the patients receiving CRRT, and persistently high IL--10 level predicts poor prognosis. (2) Persistently low monocyte HLA--DR expression may indicate concomitant or impending infection in patients receiving CRRT.
