Brief Summary:
We aimed to determine if metformin use in both diabetic and non diabetic patients with sepsis and septic shock affects 28 day mortality and its effect on inflammatory markers. Plasma rennin, serum lactate concentration and IL6 will be measured for predicting 28 days in-hospital mortality in patients with sepsis.
Detailed Description:
Sepsis, is a life-threatening condition arises when the body's response to infection causes injury to its own tissues, followed by suppression of the immune system. Signs and symptoms include fever, increased heart rate, increased breathing rate, and confusion.There may be symptoms of a specific infection, such as cough, or painful urination.
Sepsis is caused by many organisms including bacteria, viruses and fungi. . Risk factors include extreme of ages, a weakened immune system. Previously, a sepsis diagnosis required the presence of at least two systemic inflammatory response syndrome criteria.
Sepsis requires immediate treatment with intravenous fluids and antimicrobials in ICU. If fluids is not enough to maintain blood pressure, the use of medications that raise blood pressure becomes necessary. Mechanical ventilation and dialysis may be needed. A central venous catheter and an arterial catheter may be placed. corticosteroid use is controversial.
Metformin is a biguanide antihyperglycemic agent. It works by decreasing glucose production in the liver, by increasing the insulin sensitivity of body tissues, and by increasing GDF15 secretion, which reduces appetite.
Metformin is a first-line therapy for type 2 diabetes mellitus, taken by mouth and well tolerated. Common adverse effects include diarrhea, nausea, and abdominal pain.
Metformin inhibit pathways linked to inflammation, immune reactions, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling, and cell senescence. Some of the changes were confirmed by Western blot. Therefore, metformin prevented part of the deleterious actions of pro-inflammatory cytokines in human β-cells, which was accompanied by islet proteome modifications.
