Role and Mechanisms of Lipid and Lipoprotein Dysregulation in Sepsis

NCT04576819 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 58

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Lipids and lipoproteins (cholesterol and lipid metabolites) are present in sepsis and are highly biologically active regulators of inflammation, but currently the changes in lipid and lipoprotein homeostasis during sepsis are not well understood. This project will investigate the changes in lipid and lipoprotein function, oxidation, metabolites, and changes in gene expression to further our understanding of dysregulated lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in sepsis. We will analyze a bank of samples and make associations with important clinical outcomes (early death, chronic critical illness and sepsis recidivism) as supported by our published work, and will confirm our findings in a small prospective cohort of sepsis patients.
