NCT ID NCT07194915

First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 32 times

Summary

This study looks at tiny web-like structures made by immune cells (called NETs) found in the fluid around the lungs of people with a serious lung infection. Researchers want to see if higher levels of these NETs are linked to more severe disease and a higher chance of death within one year. The study involves 326 adults from multiple countries and does not test any new treatment—it only observes and measures.
