The human physiological response during sepsis or septic shock mainly involves the immune system response, which aims to mobilize and restore homeostasis. At the base of the cellular functioning of the immune system, there is a precise genetic process that regulates every slightest action of the granulocytic, monocytic, and lymphocyte cells. Modifications at the level of the gene structure can cause abnormal immune responses, which then have implications in the clinical medical field, and which could be related to various pharmacological responses and different post-operatory courses, as in the case of the development of sepsis or, more generally, of infections or inflammatory states.
We want to collect all the clinical studies that analyze the trends of the immune system during body circulation practices and all the genetic studies that look for modifications that underlie these trends, going to identify, perhaps, predictive markers, able to help the clinician when choosing which protocol applies. Clinical Trials, Original Research, Case Reports, Methods & Editorial studies are welcome.
