The study aimed to evaluate, for the first time, the diagnostic value of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 8 (SNHG8) in sepsis and its molecular mechanisms in sepsis-induced inflammation and cardiac dysfunction. ⋯ Reduced SNHG8 is a potential diagnostic biomarker for sepsis. It is involved in sepsis-induced inflammatory response and cardiac dysfunction through sponging miR-34b-5p.

Extracorporeal blood purification (EBP) therapies have shown promise as potential rescue treatments for patients with septic shock. However, precise evidence regarding their effectiveness is lacking. This case-control study aimed to evaluate the 28-day survival benefit of a resin cartridge-based EBP therapy compared to conventional therapies in patients with septic shock. ⋯ The findings suggest that administering resin cartridge-based EBP therapy to patients with septic shock may improve their survival compared to conventional therapies.

The study was to clarify the mechanism of miR-1258 targeting Prep1 (pKnox1) to control Transforming Growth Factor β1 (TGF-β1)/SMAD3 pathway in septic Acute Lung Injury (ALI)-induced oxidative stress and inflammation. ⋯ The study concludes that miR-1258 suppresses oxidative stress and inflammation in septic ALI through the Pknox1-regulated TGF-β1/SMAD3 cascade.
