Serum resistin levels in critically ill patients are associated with inflammation, organ dysfunction and metabolism, and may predict survival of non-septic patients
Critical Care, 07/02/09
Koch A et al. - Serum resistin concentrations are elevated in acute inflammation due to sepsis or systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). The close correlation with other acute phase proteins suggests a predominant, clinically relevant resistin release from macrophages in ICU patients. Moreover, resistin could potentially serve as a prognostic biomarker in non-sepsis critically ill patients.
