Genetic Factors of the Disease Course After Sepsis: Rare Deleterious Variants Are Predictive

Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by dysregulated host response to infection. For its clinical course, host genetic factors are important and rare genomic variants are suspected to contribute. We sequenced the exomes of 59 Greek and 15 German patients with bacterial sepsis divide...
