Biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction predict sepsis mortality in young infants: a matched case-control study

Abstract Background Reducing death due to neonatal sepsis is a global health priority, however there are limited tools to facilitate early recognition and treatment. We hypothesized that measuring circulating biomarkers of endothelial function and integrity (i.e. Angiopoietin-Tie2 axis) would identi...
