Recovery after a serious illness: genes and inflammation
Part of Mental health clinical trials.

This study looks at whether certain molecules in the blood (metabolic signatures) are linked to how well people recover physically after a serious illness requiring intensive care. By understanding these links, doctors might be able to better predict and support recovery.
This study looks at how your financial and social situation might affect your recovery after a serious ICU illness. You and one close family member or friend will fill out questionnaires to help doctors better understand long-term challenges for ICU survivors.
This study looks at how your immune system and inflammation affect your recovery in the intensive care unit. Researchers want to understand why some patients do better than others.
This study collects samples and information from people who spent at least two days in the ICU. The goal is to understand long-term health problems that can happen after a serious illness, like muscle weakness or memory trouble.
This study follows people who have stayed in an intensive care unit (ICU) to understand long-term effects of ICU treatment. It may help improve future care plans by identifying problems that last after leaving the ICU.
This study looks at patients who spent at least 2 days in the ICU (intensive care unit) to understand the physical, mental, and emotional challenges they face during recovery. Researchers will ask you questions about your health and function to identify what kind of support might help you feel better.
