MPO-DNA Complexes and cf-DNA in Patients with Sepsis and Their Clinical Value.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: Neutrophils, as the first line of defense in the immune response, produce neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) upon activation, which are significant in the pathogenesis and organ damage in sepsis. This study aims to explore the clinical value of myeloperoxidase-DNA (MPO-DNA) and cell-free DNA (cf-DNA) in sepsis patients. Methods: Clinical data were collected from 106 sepsis patients, 25 non-sepsis patients, and 51 healthy controls. Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores were calculated, and levels of MPO-DNA) complexes and cf-DNA were measured using specific kits. Correlation analyses assessed relationships between indicators, while logistic regression identified independent risk factors. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves calcu
