Application of metabonomics strategy in sepsis / 中国小儿急救医学

ABSTRACT

Sepsis is a heterogeneous disease with a complex pathogenesis and diverse clinical manifestations.Sepsis leads to disruption of biochemical homeostasis, which strongly promotes changes in metabolites in the body.Initial differences in metabolites may predict the severity of the disease, and changes in metabolites over time may useful in assessing treatment response, predicting progression of disease progression or clinical outcomes.This review focused on the studies related to the application of metabolomics strategy in sepsis, which could help to understand the potential value of sepsis metabolomics in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of sepsis.
