Review Meta AnalysisMidregional-proAdrenomedullin as a prognostic tool in sepsis and septic shock: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Midregional-proAdrenomedullin (MR-proADM) has been recently proposed as a tool in patients with sepsis and septic shock. Our aim was to evaluate the prognostic role of MR-proADM in hospitalized patients with sepsis and septic shock. ⋯ Higher values of MR-proADM are detectable in nonsurvivors adult and paediatric-hospitalized patients with sepsis or septic shock.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Distribution of Acute and Chronic Kidney Disease across Clinical Phenotypes for Sepsis.
Sepsis is the most common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill patients. Four phenotypes (α, β, γ, δ) for sepsis, which have different outcomes and responses to treatment, were described using routine clinical data in the electronic health record. ⋯ The rates of AKI and AKD differed across clinical sepsis phenotypes and are more common among patients with phenotypes β and δ. Phenotype β showed a higher level of underlying CKD that predisposed patients to new AKI. The α and γ phenotypes showed lower frequencies of AKI and less progression to AKD.

Observational Study
Persistence and Sexual Dimorphism of Gut Dysbiosis and Pathobiome after Sepsis and Trauma.
To evaluate the persistence of intestinal microbiome dysbiosis and gut-plasma metabolomic perturbations following severe trauma or sepsis weeks after admission in patients experiencing chronic critical illness (CCI). ⋯ Dysbiosis induced by trauma and sepsis persists up to 14 to 21 days after onset and is sex-specific, underscoring the implication of pathobiome and entero-septic microbial-metabolite perturbations in post-sepsis and posttrauma chronic critical illness. This indicates resilience to infection or injury in females' microbiome and should inform and facilitate future precision/personalized medicine strategies in the intensive care unit.

Background: Sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (SI-AKI) is a kind of kidney dysfunction, which brings a lot of suffering. This study aimed to figure out the role of the miR-218-5p/PGC-1α axis in SI-AKI. Methods: AKI mouse model was established through cecal ligation and puncture. ⋯ Inhibition of PGC-1α annulled the role of miR-218-5p silencing in cells. In vivo , miR-218-5p overexpression partly reversed the protective role of ZLN005 in SI-AKI mice. Conclusion: miR-218-5p targeted PGC-1α to disrupt mitochondrial biogenesis, thereby exacerbating SI-AKI.
