The INFECT Study: Cell surface signatures of immune dysfunction risk stratify critically ill patients EJRC Article Review Background In critically ill patients, immune activation is often accompanied by a state of immune depression. The persistence of this is associated with a complicated intensive care unit (ICU) course, including the development of nosocomial infections1. Objective […]
