Description

Zaiema and co-authors test whether markers of neutrophil traps can judge sepsis and its clotting problems. In sepsis, the immune response to infection harms organs and can trigger widespread clotting. Neutrophils cast out web-like traps that aid this harmful clotting.

The case-control study followed 138 sepsis patients for seven days, plus 80 healthy controls. It tracked who developed the clotting disorder and who died. Histone levels tied closely to early inflammation and to clotting problems. Another marker, myeloperoxidase, predicted short-term death no matter the clotting status. Rising levels of both marked higher risk.
