Summary

This study looked at how sepsis, a severe response to infection, affects certain immune cells called antigen-presenting cells. Researchers collected extra blood samples from 119 people, including sepsis patients, other critically ill patients, and healthy volunteers. The goal was to better understand why the immune system becomes weak after sepsis, which can lead to more infections.
