NCT ID NCT06809868

First seen Feb 01, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 13 times

Summary

This study looks at whether certain genetic elements, called transposable elements, can prematurely age the immune system of people with sepsis in the ICU. Researchers will take blood samples from 116 adult patients to see if these elements are linked to higher death rates or more infections. No new treatments are given—this is purely an observation study to better understand the disease.
