Project description:Fecal metabolite profiling identifies critically ill patients with increased 30-day mortality risk. Targeted metabolomics panels for Bile Acids, Tryptophan pathway, and SCFAs, see methods document for full description.
Project description:To determine whether differential expression of cellular microRNAs plays a role in the host response to Influenza A (H1N1) infection, we have employed the Agilent miRNA microarray (V3) as a discovery platform to identify microRNAs between the critically ill Patients with Influenza A (H1N1) and the healthy controls. Five critically ill patients with a diagnosis of 2009 Inflluenza A (H1N1) and three healthy controls were included in the study. The Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) were isolated and total RNA was extracted respectively.
Project description:Longitudinal Gene expression profiling of whole blood from critically ill influenza and bacterial pneumonia patients. In addition before vs 7 days post influenza vaccination volunteer samples are assayed.
Project description:Critically ill infants and children with suspected monogenic conditions underwent ultra-rapid whole exome genetic testing. A molecular diagnosis was established in 51% of the patients. This study suggests feasibility of ultra-rapid genomic testing in critically ill pediatric patients.
Project description:The number of organ failures at intensive care unit (ICU) admission is the main prognostic factor in septic shock. The aim was to assess classical clinico-biological parameters evaluating organ dysfunctions at ICU admission, combined with proteomics analysis, on day-30 mortality in critically ill onco-hematology patients admitted to the ICU for septic shock.
