The success of clinical trials of sepsis therapies is predicated on the generation and interpretation of sound preclinical data. In this review, we have attempted to outline an evidence-based approach to the assessment of preclinical animal studies evaluating novel therapeutic interventions in sepsis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
