Description
Mustafa Ay and Rabia Sari ask whether inflammation ratios at intensive care discharge still predict death after sepsis in a 2026 cohort study. Four hundred sixty-one patients treated between 2013 and 2015 were followed for deaths at twenty-eight days, six months, and two years. Four blood ratios and severity scores were tested for prognostic power.
Septic shock patients died far more often at every horizon than sepsis patients without shock. Raised discharge ratios for neutrophils and for C-reactive protein relative to albumin separated survivors from non-survivors in raw comparisons. Full modeling judged whether each ratio added independent signal beyond severity scores. Discharge planners gain a caution: inflammation at the door out still carries meaning, yet shock history dominates. Ratios may help flag who needs closest post-discharge watching.
