Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether there are differential expressions of molecules in the kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) pathway in septic cardiomyopathy, and to analyze their regulatory mechanisms and gene expression changes.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is designed as a prospective, single-center, prospective case-control study. The research plan mainly aims to collect clinical data and blood samples from patients with septic cardiomyopathy and the control group within the next 3 years (October 2023 to October 2025). Diagnostic criteria are as follows: (1) Diagnosis of sepsis is based on the SEPSIS 3.0 criteria, which is defined as a rapid increase in SOFA score by ≥2 points after infection as a clinical criterion for sepsis-related organ dysfunction. (2) Diagnostic criteria for septic cardiomyopathy include: diagnosis of sepsis and elevation of cardiac markers \[cardiac troponin I (cTnI) or BNP\]; systolic dysfunction: echocardiography shows LVEF \< 50%; diastolic dysfunction: Doppler ultrasound shows an E/A ratio (rapid filling phase/atrial contraction phase) ≤1 at the mitral valve; BNP \> 200 pg/mL; left ventricular fractional shortening (FS) \> 25%; normal or increased wall thickness, decreased left ventricular filling rate.
