Persistently Elevated Soluble Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells 1 and Decreased Monocyte Human Leucocyte Antigen DR Expression Are Associated With Nosocomial Infections in Septic Shock Patients
Abstract:Sepsis-acquired immunosuppression may play a major role in patients' prognosis through increased risk of secondary infections. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) is an innate immune receptor involved in cellular activation. Its soluble form (sTREM-1) has been described as a robust marker of mortality in sepsis. The objective of this study was to evaluate its association with the occurrence of nosocomial infections alone or in combination with human leucocyte antigen-DR on monocytes (mHLA… Show more
