Modulating the distribution and fate of MSCs following therapeutic delivery may enhance their efficacy
间充质干细胞/基质细胞(msc)伊索拉ted from multiple adult tissues and have been shown to produce factors which can protect cells from diverse injurious stimuli, favourably modulate the immune response, and enhance tissue reparative and regenerative

Early sepsis does not stimulate reactive oxygen species production and does not reduce cardiac function despite an increased inflammation status

IL-1 Receptor 8: a novel player in immunothrombosis
In addition to be a key component of blood hemostasis and coagulation, platelets have recently been implicated in thrombotic events associated with immune dysfunctions or inflammation. Platelets participate to innate immune responses and inflammation by releasing a
Erythrocytes, not leukocytes, clear bacteria from blood circulation

CD64 as a sepsis marker
Sepsis is the most common cause of mortality in critically ill patients worldwide. Despite with huge costs, it is difficult to treat sepsis. Early diagnosis sepsis and timely treatment are vital to improving outcomes and lightening the
Electronic health record alerts lead to quicker treatments for patients
In the Emergency Department (ED), patients are initially assessed in a process called “triage.” The patient’s chief complaint is documented along with his or her vital signs, including: heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, respiratory rate, and oxygen
