Genomic expression profiling across the pediatric systemic inflammatory response syndrome, sepsis, and septic shock spectrum.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To advance our biological understanding of pediatric septic shock, we measured the genome-level expression profiles of critically ill children representing the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), sepsis, and septic shock spectrum.

Design

Prospective observational study involving microarray-based bioinformatics.

Setting

Multiple pediatric intensive care units in the United States.

Patients

Children
