Procalcitonin metabolomics in the critically ill reveal relationships between inflammation intensity and energy utilization pathways

Abstract Procalcitonin is a biomarker of systemic inflammation and may have importance in the immune response. The metabolic response to elevated procalcitonin in critical illness is not known. The response to inflammation is vitally important to understanding metabolism alterations during extreme s...
